Every tutor at SHLC is a subject specialist with a minimum of five years teaching or tutoring experience. We vet carefully and keep the team small. Parents also value the structured approach: we assess first, build a plan around the actual gaps, then track and report on progress. Meet our tutors.

Maths, English and Science for students aged 8 to 16. We cover 11+ preparation, SATs and GCSE. Each subject is taught by a specialist in that discipline.

A free 15-minute consultation is available before you commit to anything. It is a chance to talk through your child's situation, ask questions and understand what a programme would look like for them. Book a free consultation.

One-to-one sessions start from £40 per hour. We also offer fixed sprint packages from £240 for a four-week block. Full monthly programmes start from £250 per month. View all packages.

Book a free consultation through the website, or message us on WhatsApp and we will arrange a time.

All sessions are online via Google Meet. Your child joins from home. This works whether you are based in the UK or living abroad.

Sessions run via Google Meet with a shared interactive whiteboard. Your child and their tutor work through problems together in real time, writing, drawing and solving questions on screen. Personalised homework is set at the end of each session based on what was covered.

Requirements vary slightly by subject:

A webcam is useful but not required.

Standard programmes are one-to-one. We also offer Tutoring With Friends, where 2 to 5 students at a similar level share a session and split the cost. Find out more about Tutoring With Friends.

We send a short pre-session assessment before the first lesson, then continue assessing during the session itself. By the end, we have a clear picture of your child's current level, the gaps to address and a plan for the term ahead.

The tutor teaches a method, works through questions live with your child and gives immediate feedback. Questions are matched to the exam format your child is preparing for. Each session ends with a short recap and clear homework for the week.

Homework is set after every session and matched to what was covered. Tasks typically take 30 to 60 minutes. As exams get closer, the homework shifts to focused past paper practice.

Students on full monthly programmes receive a written progress report each month. Reports cover what improved, what is still being worked on and what the next sessions will focus on. They are written for parents, not just students.

Most students book after school or at weekends. We are flexible on timing. Contact us and we will find a slot that works.

Sessions can be cancelled or rescheduled without issue with more than 24 hours notice. Within 24 hours, rescheduling is only accepted in unforeseen circumstances. Refunds are not available for missed sessions or late cancellations unless a valid reason is provided.

Missed sessions are not refunded unless sufficient notice was given beforehand or a valid reason applies.

Yes. Let us know your desired end date and we will confirm. Any remaining prepaid sessions will still be delivered in full before the end date.

GCSE students typically improve two to three grades in three to seven months. The UK average is one grade per year. On the 11+ side, students have secured places at over ten selective schools including Merchant Taylors', Queen Elizabeth's and The Latymer School. Results depend on the student's starting point, consistency with homework and how much time there is before the exam. See GCSE results.

Intensive sessions focused on specific weak areas before exams are available. Starting at least three months before the exam gives the best results. Starting at the beginning of the academic year gives the most room to improve significantly.

Tutoring runs throughout the year including school holidays. We also offer Holiday Intensives: five sessions across one holiday week for a concentrated block of focused work. Find out more.

The one-to-one format means we adapt pace and teaching method to suit each student individually. This includes students with learning difficulties. Raise any specific needs at the consultation and we will match your child with the most suitable tutor.
