How General Studies Can Strengthen Your Child's University Application
While some universities don't include General Studies in their offers, the skills your child develops are exactly what admissions tutors at top institutions look for. It teaches them how to think critically, construct a compelling argument, and analyse complex information from the world around them. Whether they're breaking down a current affairs topic for a debate or writing a persuasive essay, these are the skills that will help them excel in any degree and future career.

Alexandra P
Enthusiastic and dedicated tutor
I hold a BA (Hons) in Early Childhood Studies, where I explored a range of educational approaches including Steiner, Froebel, Montessori and Reggio Emilia. I believe every child learns differently, so I tailor my teaching to support each student as an individual, drawing on these philosophies to guide my methods and create lessons that are engaging, structured and purposeful. Since 2017, I’ve helped children prepare for 7+, 8+, 11+, KS2 SATs and ISEB Common Entrance exams, supporting many to achieve places at schools such as the Royal Grammar School, Queen’s College and St Paul’s Prep. I also ...

Tatiana S
Practical Spanish: Adults, GCSE, A-Levels & Scottish Highers
Many GCSE students understand vocabulary and grammar but struggle to use Spanish confidently in exams. Speaking feels stressful, writing lacks structure and listening often becomes guesswork. This leads to low confidence and inconsistent results, even in students who are capable.My GCSE lessons are structured, calm and exam-focused. I break Spanish down clearly and show students exactly how to build speaking answers, how to write in a way that meets exam criteria and how to approach listening papers with effective strategies. Grammar is explained simply and practiced in context, so students know...

Isaac is feeling now so much more confident since he’s had lessons with Muhammad. As a parent, I appreciated Muhammad request to have a free chat before the lessons start to assess what my son needed and what to prepare for the lessons ahead.He is very professional, knowledgeable and teaches in a way that is practical and helpful. We highly recommend him and can’t thank him enough for the tremendous help he has provided to our son. Many thanks again.

Mujtaba I
Mujtaba is an excellent tutor. As an A-level maths student, i’ve found his explanations clear and effective when breaking down difficult topics into manageable steps. He takes his time before the lesson to plan ahead depending on what i wanted to go through. I would highly recommend to anyone studying A-level maths.
