GCSE and A level tutoring

We offer bespoke coaching and prep courses for students taking GCSE or A level foreign language examinations. We are proud to say that nearly all our GCSE and A level students have come away with grades far exceeding their expectations.

One-to-one tuition

Course delivery

Our one-to-one GCSE and A level coaching and prep courses are very flexible as you can decide when you want to start your course and choose the days and times of your classes:

  • Monday to Friday 07:30-20:00
  • Saturday 09:00-14:00

Most students come for 1 or 2 x 60- or 90-minute classes per week during the school term. Classes can also be taken during the school holidays and students can have anything from 1 to 5 hours’ tuition a day.

We have a team of professional and friendly native teachers, all of whom have vast experience preparing students for GCSE and A level examinations. Their main objective is for their students to obtain the best possible grade whilst ensuring that the learning process is fun!

Assessment class

We recommend that prospective students come and see us for an assessment lesson before committing to a course. This gives them the opportunity to meet their teacher and get a feel for their teaching methods. Their current level will also be assessed, after which we are then in a position to create a tailor-made course to their specific requirements. If they need to focus on a particular element of the exam, whether it be listening, speaking or writing, we’ll build their confidence in the relevant areas.

Following the assessment class, if the student would like to continue with their tuition we ask for a commitment to a minimum of 6 hours. 12-, 24- and 36-hour options are also available.

Our group GCSE coaching classes run in conjunction with the school terms and consist of a weekly 60-minute class (weekday 16:00-17:00). The classes are geared towards students in years 10 and 11.

Our group GCSE coaching courses are geared toward additional support and focus on all elements of the exam (speaking, writing, and listening). The main objective for our teachers is for their students to obtain the best possible grade whilst ensuring that the learning process is fun!

Classes are conducted by our team of talented native French, German and Spanish teachers, all of whom have vast experience in preparing students for GCSE, A-Level and scholarship examinations and are familiar with the AQA, Edexcel and OCR exam boards.

Trial lesson

The first lesson takes the form of a trial class at £24.00. You don’t commit to a course at this stage. You get to meet your teacher and fellow students. If you enjoy the class and wish to continue we’ll ask that you commit to one term.

Should you wish to continue for the rest of the term after the trial lesson, the balance of the payment for the term – £264.00 – must be made in full.
