FAQs

A few common questions from parents and students. If you’d prefer a quick chat, book a free assessment call and we’ll advise on the best next step.

Results vary by individual. Outcomes depend on attendance, effort, homework completion and exam conditions. No grades are guaranteed.

Do you guarantee grades?

No. We provide high-quality teaching and a structured plan, but outcomes depend on attendance, effort, homework completion, and exam conditions.

Do you offer online and in-person tutoring?

Yes. Online sessions are available UK-wide. In-person sessions are available depending on location in the North West.

How is the hourly rate decided?

After the assessment, based on current level, target grade, amount of re-teaching required, and timeline to exams.

How often should we book sessions?

Most students progress best with 1–2 sessions per week. For tight timelines, we may recommend a more intensive plan.

Which exam boards do you cover?

We adapt to the student’s exam board and focus heavily on exam-style questions and past papers.

What if my child lacks confidence or is anxious?

That’s common. We keep sessions calm and structured, build confidence through small wins, and develop exam technique progressively.

Do you set homework?

Where helpful, we may set optional practice tasks. Progress is typically faster when students practise between sessions.

What is your cancellation policy?

We ask for at least 24 hours’ notice to reschedule. Late cancellations/no-shows may be charged in full (except genuine emergencies at our discretion).

Do you cover other GCSE subjects?

Potentially. Please book a short assessment call and we’ll confirm suitability and availability.

Who is this best for?
  • Students aiming for strong grades who can commit to consistency
  • Parents who want structure, clarity and measurable progress
  • Students who benefit from calm confidence-building alongside high standards
Tip for fastest progress

Students typically improve fastest with 1–2 sessions per week plus a small amount of practice between lessons. Consistency beats last-minute panic every time.
