Frequently Asked Questions

• Does English tutoring help?

  English tutoring helps students to build confidence in literacy and improves young learners' understanding of important concepts. Our English tuition covers reading, comprehension, writing, spelling, and grammar, and helps children build confidence.

  With input from you and your child, we set achievable goals, which assist in building confidence and momentum to continue learning. Our English tutoring helps older students to develop narrative and essay writing skills, including persuasive and expository writing. Specific preparation for upcoming tests and exams can be integrated with lesson plans, which helps students succeed at school and lift their grades.

  To support student progression outside of tutoring sessions, we can provide homework and revision for pupils to take home to expand on what they are learning in the centre and at school. English tutoring is as beneficial for advanced learners as it is for those who need extra support or help to catch up.

• How long do English tutoring sessions last?

  A tutoring session with NumberWorks’nWords runs for one hour. Most centres begin after-school lessons at 3:30pm, but lesson times vary from centre to centre. If your child requires more time with a tutor, they can book back-to-back sessions in one afternoon, or attend multiple sessions per week. Most centres run three sessions each day after school - get in touch with your local centre to learn more about class times.

  Our individualised approach to tuition means we can offer each student the support they need at times that fit in with extracurricular activities and other commitments. The hour-long sessions fly by, and our students are eager to return to the learning centres each week.

• Does English tutoring improve grades?

  Students who attend NumberWorks’nWords experience a lift in school grades and increased confidence to take on academic challenges. Our specialised English tuition improves academic performance and results and is enjoyable, so students are eager to learn and continue working towards their goals.

  Our personalised English tuition helps students prepare for specific exams and assessments, which can be integrated with lesson plans. Our tutors also offer advice and guidance that helps students with their exam revision and homework, to support them in achieving their best academic results. Our team works closely with families to ensure that each student is provided with a programme that is tailored to their individual learning goals.

  English tutoring with NumberWorks’nWords helps students work towards improving their academic performance, grades, and confidence, in a supportive environment that celebrates success and milestones. Our tailored learning programmes can be adjusted in line with each child’s progress, to ensure they are on track to achieve their best academic outcomes.

• What is your curriculum for English tutoring?

  Our English tuition caters for beginning readers and continues through to Year 10. It gives your child skills for success in reading, comprehension, writing, grammar, and spelling. Narrative and essay writing skills are incorporated into the programme for older students.

  The content of our programmes follows the school syllabus, so you can be sure that everything learned will support your child’s school work and build on relevant topics. Each child has their own individualised learning programme based on the outcomes of the comprehensive English assessment, which takes place before tutoring begins.

  We establish each child’s learning plan in conjunction with their school curriculum and the student’s learning goals. The comprehensive assessment also helps us understand each child’s current abilities and learning style, which enables us to match them with a learning aptitude level and tutor. 

  Our proven approach to tutoring helps children to develop foundational skills and advanced learning, through targeted lessons that focus on closing gaps and establishing a robust understanding of literacy skills. Throughout the term, past topics are revised and tested to ensure learning has been retained and children are on track with their education.
