Find an expert Primary Key Stage 2 tutor

Q: How can a KS2 tutor help my child with the Year 3 jump and specific subject roadblocks? A: Our expert KS2 Tutors can provide targeted support for the increased expectations in Year 3. For maths, they’ll break down abstract concepts like formal written methods or fractions and help master the Multiplication Tables Check. For English, they can focus on reading fluency for 'reading to learn' and develop structured writing, grammar, and complex sentences. This personalised attention addresses exactly what's holding your child back, rebuilding their confidence. Q: How do online KS2 tutors help with preparing for the KS2 SATs and secondary school application? A: Many of our online KS2 tutors specialise in exam preparation, guiding your child through the format of the KS2 SATs and primary assessments. They'll teach effective exam strategies, time management skills, and work on practice papers. This focus not only aims for the "expected standard" but also ensures your child feels confident and capable for their secondary school application and the transition to Year 7. Q: What if my child is preparing for private school entrance exams or common entrance exams? A: We have many KS2 Tutors who are experienced in preparing students for private school entrance exams and common entrance exams. They can cover specific content often not taught in state primaries, such as verbal and non-verbal reasoning, giving your child the specialist knowledge and confidence they need for these high-stakes assessments. Q: How do you ensure tutoring won't put too much pressure on my child or make them hate learning? A: Our tutors focus on making learning enjoyable and supportive. They adapt their methods to your child's learning style, using engaging resources and a patient approach to rebuild self-esteem alongside knowledge. The goal is to make learning a positive experience, fostering curiosity rather than turning it into a chore, directly countering the worry about burnout or killing the love of learning. Q: How do you make sure the tutor's methods complement what my child is learning in school? A: During your initial discussions, you can share insights from your child's class teacher about specific areas needing focus. Our tutors work to reinforce and build upon school learning, using the current KS2 curriculum as their guide. They can help clarify concepts taught in class and provide extra practice, ensuring their methods enhance, rather than confuse, your child's understanding. Q: How do you approach rebuilding a student’s self-esteem alongside their knowledge? A: Our experienced online KS2 tutors understand that confidence is key to learning. They create a supportive, encouraging environment where mistakes are seen as learning opportunities. By celebrating small victories, focusing on individual progress, and tailoring lessons to areas where a child feels most vulnerable, they gently guide students to believe in their abilities and overcome school-related anxiety.
