The Eleven Plus exam is more than just a test; it's a stepping stone that can open the door to a grammar school education and set a strong foundation for your child's future learning. Success in the 11+ demonstrates a great grasp of core skills in Maths, English, verbal and non-verbal reasoning. These are the skills that will help your child thrive as they move towards their GCSEs, A-Levels, and beyond, giving them the confidence to aim for their chosen university or career path.

Personalised 11+ Support to Help Your Child Stand Out
The right tutor does more than just teach; they build a connection. By getting to know your child's unique way of learning, their strengths, and the areas they find tricky, a tutor can create a plan that really works for them. Whether it's finding a new way to explain complex maths problems or building vocabulary for the English paper, this personalised guidance makes all the difference. Every one-to-one session is built around your child's specific needs. If they're struggling with non-verbal reasoning patterns or need to speed up their mental arithmetic, their tutor can focus the entire lesson on that one area. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from an expert who is dedicated to helping them make real, measurable progress. Finding the right support shouldn't add to your family's stress. With online tutoring, you can connect with the perfect 11+ specialist from anywhere in the UK, all from the comfort of your Basingstoke home. Lessons are easy to schedule around school, clubs, and family time, making it simple to get your child the support they need, without the hassle of travel.

Mamun A
We are very happy with the support our child is receiving in preparation for the 11 Plus. From the beginning, Manum created a warm, encouraging environment where our child felt completely comfortable and at ease. Instead of feeling pressured, our child actually looks forward to the lessons and is happy to sit through each session fully engaged.
The tutor explains concepts clearly and patiently, adapting their approach to suit our child’s learning style. What has stood out just as much is the ease in communication between our child and Manum which leads to constructive dialogue about strengths and areas to focus on.
Overall, we’ve been extremely impressed with the professionalism, dedication, and genuine care shown. Both our child and we as parents would wholeheartedly recommend this tutor to anyone preparing for the 11 Plus.

Christina V
We have had a great experience with Christina. We engaged her to support our youngest to get through the English assessment to be able to join the same bi-lingual French/English school here in France as her elder sisters (as otherwise, as a native English speaker, she would have been pushed into a French-only local college). Over the months her confidence grew and grew; she successfully passed assessment, and is now at the same college as her siblings. Many thanks to Christina for her contributions, it was everything that we hoped for when we set off on the tutorful journey !

abdul M
Abdul has been an excellent tutor for my child. He is patient, reliable, and explains concepts clearly in a way that actually makes them easy to understand. My child has become more confident in the subject and their understanding has improved noticeably since starting tuition with him.
Abdul is always well-prepared, professional, and genuinely cares about his students’ progress. He takes the time to identify weaknesses and works through them step by step, rather than rushing through lessons. Communication has also been very good, and he is always happy to give feedback or advice.
I would highly recommend Abdul to any parent looking for a dedicated and effective tutor.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're in Basingstoke but aiming for a Berkshire grammar school like Reading or Kendrick. Can a tutor help with this specific challenge?
Absolutely. Many of our 11+ tutors have extensive experience preparing children for the specific entrance exams used by the most competitive grammar schools, including those in Berkshire. They can help your child build the high-level skills and exam techniques needed to perform their best, giving them a stronger chance of standing out in a very competitive field.
Are your tutors familiar with the 11+ exam formats relevant to schools near Basingstoke?
Yes. Our tutors specialise in various 11+ exam boards, including GL Assessment and CEM, which are commonly used by grammar schools in Hampshire and the surrounding counties. When you search, you can view tutor profiles to find someone with specific experience in the exam format your child will be sitting.
How do I choose the right Eleven Plus 11+ tutor for my child?
Finding the right fit is key. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It’s about finding an expert your child will feel comfortable and confident with.
How much does an 11+ tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.
How can online tutoring help my child with exam stress?
A great tutor acts as a mentor, helping to build your child's confidence and reduce anxiety. By practising in a calm, one-to-one environment, your child can get comfortable with the format and timing of the exam, turning big worries into manageable steps. This preparation can make a huge difference to how they feel on the day.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right connection is, which is why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How long should my child have tutoring for the 11+?
There's no single answer, as every child is different. Some parents start a year or more in advance to build foundational skills slowly, while others might book a few months of focused revision before the exam. You can discuss your child's goals directly with a tutor to create a plan that works for them.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a function to share documents. This means your child and their tutor can work through practice papers, draw diagrams, and solve maths problems together, just as they would in person.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you updated on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss how things are going. Many tutors use practice tests and revision exercises to track improvement and identify areas that need more focus.
What subjects are covered in 11+ tutoring?
Our tutors cover all key areas of the Eleven Plus exams, including Maths, English (comprehension and creative writing), Verbal Reasoning, and Non-Verbal Reasoning. They can tailor lessons to focus on the specific subjects your child needs the most support with.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like Maths and English, we also offer lessons for a huge range of other skills and hobbies! Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get into coding with Python, or even learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their interests.
