Supporting you and your child every step of the way.
Finding the right 11 Plus tutor for your child can be a stressful experience.
Everyone wants the best for their children and ensuring that you have the right person, who is both qualified and experienced, is vital when making this decision. Having had many years’ experience with preparing children for exams, from mastering challenging content, to developing exam techniques and efficiency with timings, I am exceptionally well – placed to support you on this journey.
Aim High will provide a flexible and personalised service which meets your child’s needs. This will be achieved through focussed, dedicated and effective teaching, striving alongside you to ensure your child has the best possible preparation when taking the 11 + exams.
Aim High Tuition will work in close partnership with you as parents in establishing:
Strong communication between parents and tutor
A dynamic of team work, essential to making accelerated progress
Securing understanding of the necessary content for the 11 Plus exam
Detailed and regular feedback
Weekly homework to maximise progress throughout the year
Preparation is a key part ensuring success in the 11 Plus exam, which is why finding the right tutor is so important.
Despite the rigours of the National Curriculum, much of the exam content differs from what the children learn in school. Most aspects of the verbal reasoning are not taught in school and non – verbal reasoning isn’t covered at all; therefore, it is vital that your child has the opportunity to develop the relevant skills, conceptual understanding and confidence required to give them the best chance of success. Aim High will equip your child with all the relevant skills needed to perform well in the CEM exams.
In my first year of tutoring for the 11 Plus, despite having only tutored the majority of the students for less than six months from the exam date, Aim High secured a pass rate of 75%. The current cohort of Year 5 students are on track to well exceed this figure as they have had the benefit of being tutored at Aim High since Year 4.

My son's confidence has grown so much with Joel. When I now look through his books all I see are ticks. I am so glad I found him as I was struggling for a long time to find a good tutor who was also reasonable in price. I can not thank him enough as to how much he has helped my son. Thank you Joel

02/03/2019 My daughters confidence with her maths has improved no end since she started attending this group. Small group tuition with an excellent qualified teacher in a purpose-built classroom. My daughter seems to enjoy going and comes back full of it. She is now doing her homework independently within 15 minutes compared with two hours and support one term ago.
