At Top Grades Education, we know that when a child feels confident, they can achieve things they may never have thought possible.

to class discussions or ask questions. As a teenager would you have felt comfortable asking a question in front of 30 other pupils? Have you been in a situation where you felt you couldn’t clarify your understanding? One of the most empowering elements of small group tuition is that our students can ask questions freely without feeling self-conscious. Although some of these questions may seem simple, these questions could be the key to unlock your child’s potential. BESPOKE LEARNING:
Our confident learners have enjoyed improved results and exam grades in English, Maths, Science and Languages. Their knowledge and understanding have improved in other areas and often they arrive at our tuition centre with news of other successes they have had in their lives. Our confident learners become part of the ‘Top Grades family’ we celebrate our learners’ successes, regularly communicate with parents, and communicate with teachers, providing an extra support network for families. Our confident learners can ask questions, have no distractions, enjoy personalised learning, reduced anxiety, and support for revision.
We tailor our tuition to support our learners. During our free assessment lesson, we work out our learners’ key areas for development and tailor our tuition to support our learners to improve. Our parents even have the opportunity to tell us where their child may need specific support and we adapt our curriculum to provide personalised learning.
FREEDOM TO ASK QUESTIONS:
REDUCING ANXIETY:
As teachers we often say that pupils should ask for help when they need it or advise pupils to make contributions
If a young person starts to believe that they don’t understand a subject it can cause a barrier to their learning.

We work with our young people to break those barriers to learning, improving their confidence, and encouraging them to enjoy the subject. SUPPORT FOR REVISION: Being able to revise effectively is challenging. Many young people struggle to revise meaningfully, they need guidance and support to navigate their way through revision for exams. Whether your child is struggling with understanding Science, remembering Spanish vocabulary, analysing language features in English or solving simultaneous equations in Maths - we can help!
NO DISTRACTIONS: Distractions often get in the way of learning in the school environment. There are no distractions in our small tuition groups. We offer laser-focused tuition sessions in our positive, purposeful environment.
