Working Together: How Online 11+ Tutoring Supports Your Portsmouth Child
This journey starts with understanding. The right tutor takes the time to get to know your child—not just their scores, but their personality. They’ll discover what makes them tick, where their anxieties lie, and how to make learning feel exciting again. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is partnered with a true expert who can build a genuine, supportive connection that helps them feel seen and capable.
Every session is built around your child. If they're finding percentages tricky but fly through comprehension, their tutor adapts. The lessons focus precisely on what they need, turning 'I can't do this' into 'I'll give it a go'. It's in these moments, working one-to-one with someone who believes in them, that real confidence takes root. It's why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade—they're getting support that truly fits.
And it all happens online, fitting seamlessly into your family's life in Portsmouth. No stressful after-school journeys, no logistical headaches. Your child can learn from the comfort of home, with access to the very best 11+ specialists from anywhere in the UK. It’s flexible, focused support designed to reduce pressure, not add to it, giving your child the best chance to shine.

Zohra M
Enthusiastic Eleven Plus 11+ Tutor
Hi! I am Zohra and I am currently studying Biochemistry at University. To be completely honest Biology was my least favourite Science out of the three - funnily enough it forms the majority of my degree. It was very challenging in the beginning but I can assure you that it does get easier, only by having patience and consistently putting in hard work!I studied for my A Levels during the pandemic when we had online lessons which was a challenge to get used to but from this experience. I can empathise with the feeling of online studying and working on your own as I have been in your shoes before!...

Luke S
Luke has tutored my son for the admissions exam for year 7 entry including finding out details of the exam and assessing which areas my son needed support in. He has enjoyed the lessons (half the battle!) and Luke has been a calm and reassuring guide in the run up to the exam.

William C
William is a great 11+ tutor for our son.
Within a short period of time he was able to recognise his strengths and encourage him and us. He was also able to quickly identify areas for improvement and strategically challenge him so that he feels motivated and not overwhelmed. He has a good rapport with him such that he feels comfortable asking questions and speaking up if he doesn’t understand something. Overall this has helped to improve his learning experience.
He introduced us to a great online tool, which he uses during the lesson to provide structure and focus. He also uses it to set weekly tasks, which has been useful for us to monitor his progress. After each lesson we get helpful feedback on how well he did and what he needs to work on, which has really helped us engage more with his learning.
Our son is keen to pass his 11+ exams and having William as his tutor has been a great confidence boost for all of us, therefore we would highly recommend him to others.

Mamun A
Mr Mamun is a fantastic tutor who has been teaching both of my daughters. He first started with Ruwaizah for her 11+ preparation, and after seeing his teaching style, dedication, and the care and attention he gave her, we decided to enrol Rufaidah as well.
Mamun provides plenty of homework and keeps Ruwaizah well prepared for grammar school admissions. His lessons are organised, supportive, and very effective.
I would highly recommend Mamun to any parents looking for a dedicated and caring tutor for their children.
