Personalised Tuition Timetable: Tailored Support for Exam Success

At KRS Education, we understand the importance of individualised attention as students prepare for their exams. That’s why we offer 1:1 tutoring and 1:2 tutoring for friends, designed to help students excel in their core subjects: English, Maths, and Science.

Course Structure

Each subject is delivered in a 6-week programme, strategically planned to align with the exam schedule. Our sessions are designed to provide a flexible yet structured learning experience, ensuring students receive the personalised support they need.

Why Choose Our Tutoring Services?
  • Tailored Learning: Sessions are customised to address each student’s unique strengths and areas for improvement.
  • Focused Attention: With 1:1 or 1:2 settings, students benefit from direct interaction with their tutor, fostering a deeper understanding of the subject. (1:2 is for a friend or relation, to share the cost) 
  • Flexible Scheduling: Book in 6-week blocks to fit your schedule while maintaining consistent progress.
Who Is This For?

Our personalised tutoring services are ideal for students who:

  • Require extra support in English, Maths, or Science.
  • Are preparing for GCSE exams and want focused, effective sessions.
  • Thrive in a one-to-one or small pair setting for optimal learning.
Booking Information

Tutoring differs from classroom teaching in several key ways, and these distinctions can significantly impact a student’s learning experience:

  1. Personalised Attention
    Tutoring, especially in a 1:1 or 1:2 setting, allows the tutor to focus solely on the individual student or pair. Lessons are tailored to their specific needs, learning pace, and goals. In a classroom, teachers must balance the needs of a larger group, which can make it harder to address individual challenges in-depth.

  2. Customised Learning Plans
    Tutors can adapt their teaching methods and materials to suit a student’s unique learning style. Classroom teaching often follows a standardised curriculum and pace, which may not cater to every student’s strengths or areas for improvement.

  3. Flexible Scheduling
    Tutoring sessions can be scheduled at times that work best for the student, providing more flexibility than a traditional classroom timetable. This is especially beneficial for students with busy schedules or those who need extra time to grasp certain topics.

  4. Focused Environment
    Tutoring eliminates the distractions often found in a classroom setting. With fewer students, there’s less competition for the tutor’s attention, creating a more focused and supportive learning space.

  5. Goal-Oriented Approach
    Tutors often work towards specific goals, such as preparing for an exam, mastering a particular subject, or improving skills in a targeted area. Classroom teaching, while comprehensive, is designed to cover a broader curriculum over a set period.

  6. Building Confidence
    The personalised nature of tutoring helps students build confidence in their abilities. They can ask questions freely without fear of judgment, which might not always feel as comfortable in a larger classroom.

  7. Pace of Learning
    In tutoring, the pace is entirely dictated by the student’s progress. If a concept needs more time, the tutor can slow down. In classrooms, the pace is often set to meet curriculum deadlines, which might leave some students behind.

Both tutoring and classroom teaching have their strengths, but tutoring provides a more customised and focused approach. It’s particularly valuable for students who need additional support, want to excel in a specific subject, or thrive in a more intimate learning environment.

Grace Marklew SENDCO at Halfway Juniors 🙂

Halfway Primary School Joel has been with us at Halfway Juniors for the last two years and over that time, he has really supported our children! He knows all of the children by name from Y3 to Y6, and they all adore him! He supports delivering interventions for our SEND pupils – these are children who cannot access the standard interventions delivered, and require a more active, bespoke approach to support.  Joel is always talking to staff about how they are getting on and giving us updates, and making sure that we know what progress they are making.  He always tailors and adapts support for pupils, and we have seen such a difference in them – their confidence, competence and collaboration has massively increased thanks to the efforts of Joel, which is being noticed by staff in school and parents at home! We cannot thank Joel enough for his time, effort and expertise in supporting these children at such a crucial time in their development.

Charlotte Vernon Headteacher, Spire Junior School

Thank you ever so much for coming in to school to support our staff INSET day. The team building activities we took part in where all great and the laughter could be heard from the other side of the school. The staff explained everything clearly, helped out where needed and got involved too. It gave us all an opportunity to work together, communicate and take part in some healthy competition. We’re very grateful.

Caroline Fairfax Deputy Headteacher, Reignhead Primary School

‘KRS have supported PE development and CPD at Reignhead this year and will continue to do so next year.

KRS staff are experienced coaches who have worked with pupils, teachers and teaching assistants across all key stages. They have a very good understanding of the National Curriculum and have successfully followed (and made adaptations where necessary) to the school’s own PE curriculum. The coaches have formed very good working relationships with staff; currently working alongside our HLTAs – they observe and learn new techniques which they are then able to replicate in other PE lessons that they deliver. This has proven to be a very effective method of CPD and has been positively received by staff. We have extended this model to other teaching staff across school who expressed some need for CPD in the teaching of PE.

KRS are incredibly flexible and are always so accommodating when the need arises. They have happily been involved in Red Nose Days, World Book Days and Comic Relief – they are just so adaptable!

Always at the heart of KRS is the children…children always come first and this is what makes them such a special organisation of professional coaches.’
