A strong foundation in the core subjects such as English, Maths, Science and Social Studies will be essential for success in UK schools. Guidance is necessary on the application process for UK schools. Prepare your child with a British tutor sent from England to live with your family in your own country. His is very familiar with the curriculum and standards required by British universities. He will prepare you for the interviews and entrance exams.
Success preparing a child who is not British for future studies and life in prestigious UK schools and universities is a long-term process that requires patience, dedication and hard work. We strongly feel that online learning and increased screen time is not the answer. Having a full-time live-in tutor at home can provide a more comfortable and familiar environment for the child, which can help to reduce stress and anxiety. Zoom achieves none of this, and can lead to frustration for the entire family.
We have come up against almost every problem and in all cases our tutors have managed to motivate and inspire the pupil and enabled him to pass his GCSE, A level, IB exams and Oxford & Cambridge University Admissions. A role model improves the pupil's cultural understanding so that he does not have any further difficulty with studies or life abroad.
We will discuss with you at length exactly what you need from a tutor and find one that we feel meets your needs. He will be chosen and sent to live with you in your country. While the tutor is living with your family, you may discuss with us at any time any questions that may arise and the tutor will have continuous contact with us. We are committed to making your experience with an international live-in tutor a success.
