Christina V
We had a great experience with Christine. She made my nervous and shy daughter feel at ease immediately (we'd already tried a few other tutors).
Chris focused on what we asked for her focus on initially, but then moved on to different subjects when she saw my daughter was progressing well. Each session felt tailored to her learning needs.
My daughter excelled in her 11plug and won places in 2 top schools. We can't recommend Chris enough.

My son was also using the online platform Atom to practice and prepare. Will was particularly good at using the feedback and analytics provided by Atom to create a personalised curriculum that was fully focussed on what my son needed to do to increase his chances of success.
My son enjoyed working with Will and found him calm, clear and structured. Thank you Will!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can an online Eleven Plus tutor help my child prepare for grammar schools outside Burton-upon-Trent?
Yes, absolutely. Our online tutors specialise in the Eleven Plus exams for various regions, including those in nearby Lichfield, Staffordshire, or the wider West Midlands. They understand the specific requirements of different grammar schools and can tailor lessons to help your child compete effectively, no matter where the school is located.
Even though Burton-upon-Trent doesn't have grammar schools, why should I consider Eleven Plus tutoring?
While Burton-upon-Trent itself doesn't have grammar schools, many parents choose to prepare their children for selective schools in surrounding areas. Eleven Plus tutoring ensures your child is equipped with the advanced academic and reasoning skills needed for these competitive entry exams, giving them the best possible chance to secure a place and access a specific academic pathway if that's your family's goal.
Is Eleven Plus tutoring just for exam preparation, or can it help with general academic skills?
While our Eleven Plus tutors are experts in exam preparation, the skills they teach – like critical thinking, problem-solving, vocabulary, and mathematical reasoning – are fundamental for broader academic success. These abilities will help your child excel not only in the Eleven Plus but also in their ongoing studies at any school, including strong local comprehensives like John Taylor High School.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first Eleven Plus tutor?
We want you and your child to feel completely comfortable. If you don't get on with your first tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the best online Eleven Plus tutor for my child?

Eleven Plus tutoring typically covers English (comprehension, vocabulary, grammar), Maths (numerical reasoning, problem-solving), Verbal Reasoning, and Non-Verbal Reasoning. Tutors will focus on the specific components relevant to the schools your child is applying for.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person lessons for the Eleven Plus?
