About us
Better Grades believes it is important for children to achieve a solid foundation in the core subjects of Maths, English and Science . With Better Grades, each child receives an individualised study programme that is tailored to meet their needs. It is also designed to help the student master the subjects and ingrain life-long learning skills.
The Better Grades Maths Curriculum
The Maths curriculum is a programme which with our unique educational approach, leads students from the very basics of Maths to the mastery of algebra, shapes and space, number and handling data.
The Better Grades English Curriculum
The English curriculum has two key learning objectives: to develop each student’s ability to read, write and understand a wide variety of language, to nurture in each student a life-long habit of reading for both education and enjoyment. It is our experience that achieving these objectives will make the biggest contribution to success at school and at work. This is why we focus so strongly on developing fundamental knowledge and skills.
Levels of Study
We currently offer the following levels of study: A2 and AS GCSE 11+ and common Entrance Exams Primary and Pre-GCSE Dyslexia and Learning Difficulties
A2 and AS
Experienced A-level tutors are available for all subjects. Working with past papers from the relevant exam boards, tutors focus on exam technique, study skills and any areas of the syllabus that require specific support. Another vital role of the tutor is building and maintaining students' confidence, thereby enabling them to realise their full potential. A particular strength of many of our tutors is grade improvement to gain access to a chosen university.
GCSE
Reinforcement of the syllabus is a vital contribution to any GCSE student and when this is combined with practical and detailed support with coursework, revision and exam technique, improvement in performance is virtually guaranteed. Our tutors are skilled at assessing students' ability and targeting those areas that would most benefit from support.
11+ and Common Entrance Exams
Our tutors are available who specialise in these exams. We have extensive knowledge and experience of local schools' specific entrance requirements and are to offer effective focused teaching.
Primary and Pre-GCSE
Younger students can benefit from tuition, either targeting one subject or both core subjects. SATS results can be significantly improved and confidence increased, which can lead to improved performance in the classroom.
Dyslexia and LearningDifficulties
We are able to arrange tuition with tutors who have experience supporting students with dyslexia and other specific learning difficulties. They are skilled at assessing and planning programmes of tuition that allows students to succeed, thereby building confidence and improving self-esteem.
