Thomas

I am a Cambridge graduate focused on preparing children for the Eleven Plus, covering English, Maths and Verbal/Non-Verbal reasoning. I'm warm, understanding and committed to helping your child reach their potential.

16 years ago, I took and passed the eleven plus for entrance to my secondary school. I understand the preparation required to help children demonstrate their true potential in the exam.

I teach exclusively online for the time being. I have an excellent broadband connection, a quality camera and I am highly tech-savvy.

Outside of academia, I am an accomplished musician, reaching grade 8 in piano, saxophone and guitar as well as performing with national ensembles.

Tutoring Experience

I have tutored a range of pupils across an array of subjects over the last ten years, from GCSE English to Oxbridge interview preparation. If you think I can help your child, do get in touch!

Tutoring Approach

My lessons are:
-Tailored - every child learns differently. I work hard to prepare lessons tailored to your child's individual way of learning.
-Fun - learning is very enjoyable when framed correctly! I find fun, interactive ways to engage your child, activating their mind to help them learn most effectively.

My lessons focus on developing your child's abilities in core areas such as mathematical understanding, problem solving, fluency of writing, spelling, punctuation, grammar and pattern recognition (a vital part of verbal/non-verbal reasoning).
