School entrance
Our 7+ and 8+ tutors prepare young children for entry to leading London and boarding prep schools, building confidence in English, maths and reasoning through short, engaging lessons. Lessons run in person across London or online worldwide.
About 7+ and 8+ tutoring
Entry at 7+ and 8+ is competitive, especially for the most sought-after London schools. A good tutor turns a long list of requirements into a clear weekly routine: reading comprehension and creative writing one week, mental arithmetic and problem solving the next, and regular verbal and non-verbal reasoning so nothing is left to the last minute.
We tailor each 7+ and 8+ programme to the schools on your shortlist. Some schools weigh reasoning papers heavily; others rely on their own English and maths tests followed by interview. Your tutor will plan around those differences, set realistic goals, and keep you informed with short progress notes after each lesson.
What we teach
A typical 7+ and 8+ programme might begin with reading comprehension and creative writing and mental arithmetic and problem solving, then build towards verbal and non-verbal reasoning and spelling, punctuation and grammar, with speaking and listening for group assessments woven in throughout. Your tutor adjusts the order and pace to your course, your deadlines and how quickly each area becomes secure.
Where we teach
Families across Blackheath, Westminster, Putney and Battersea use our 7+ and 8+ tutors for home visits in the run-up to registration deadlines, test days and interviews. Tutors travel to your home or meet at a convenient venue, and lessons can be weekly, intensive before exams, or arranged around school and work.
Not in London? Our 7+ and 8+ tutors teach online in live one-to-one sessions with a shared whiteboard, documents and screen sharing. Students join from Hong Kong, Toronto, Kuwait City, New York and Geneva and beyond, with lessons timed for their own time zone.
