How we helped others

The 11+ process is a daunting process for the whole family and having been through this twice now for our son then daughter, we realise that we have been extremely lucky to have had Myles Tutors as part of our team to navigate this process on both occasions and help develop our children to reach their full potential. We have known the company since 2016 following a recommendation from a close friend and they have tutored our son and then our daughter, for their 11+ private school exams while they attended our local primary school. To say that our tutor was a key asset during this whole process is something of an understatement. It is not just her first class tutoring that they had to offer, which at the outset I perhaps had valued, but in hindsight the way they were able to adapt her approach to two very different children to challenge them and also build their confidence where and when needed, to ensure they develop to their full potential. Our tutor was responsible for a referral of our daughter, after only her second session, leading to a clear dyslexia diagnosis (which may have never been forthcoming from the school who were adamant there was no reason to refer). This fundamentally changed our daughter’s trajectory, self-confidence and performance at school and generally ultimately leading to a successful 11+ outcome- G Brooks, Southfields
I cannot recommend Myles Tutors more highly. They are everything and more that I could hope for in tutors. CM became my son’s tutor at the end of year 5 and through her very extensive knowledge of all the secondary schools and their various examinations processes my son succeeded in securing places at 6 independent schools and a London grammar school. In such a short space of time, this was such a fantastic achievement and one which would not have been possible without her.

She very quickly developed a wonderful partnership with my son by really understanding his personality and ability. My son really looked forward to his sessions with her and described her as kind, smiley, encouraging and very good at explaining the work that he didn’t understand. All their session were full of such positivity and she gave my son the confidence to achieve his full potential.

As parents, we always felt we were in such good hands. She guided us through his learning week by week with very clear aims and excellent feedback. When we had questions she was always there to answer them and she provided us with all support we needed. She was a great help when we were deciding which schools to apply for.

With my eldest son, we did a mixture of both face to face sessions and skype sessions, both of which worked very well. Recently my 7-year-old son has started skype only sessions with our tutor and through her excellent approach, he is able to focus and has engaged well during these online learning sessions. He is a very different personality from my eldest son but he too is really enjoying learning and his confidence has really increased. Due to our tutor's weekly detailed feedback, we now have a much clearer sense of my son’s learning needs and his strengths which is so reassuring.

Myles Tutor’s professionalism, dedication and enthusiasm for tutoring really sets them apart from other tutors. I believe that they will find the very best in your child and optimise their learning to the full. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone I know.

We are very grateful to Myles Tutors for the inspired tutoring they offered our daughter during year 5 and year 6, when we like many other parents, decided to apply to a myriad of secondary schools. They prepared my daughter for the taxing exam process with skill, professionalism, kindness and encouragement.- F Evans, Wandsworth
I wanted to my daughter to get at least a grade B in her Maths GCSE but she was at D grade level in her mock exams. I arranged for a tutor from Myles Tutors to see her once a week and he was excellent. My daughter was immediately more comfortable with Maths and soon enough looked forward to doing her Maths homework. She was surprised just how "easy" the subject could be. She has just received an A grade for her final exam and is looking forward to taking the subject at AS level.- S Jacobs, Highgate
I found a few topics in my Maths A-Level particularly difficult and so found a tutor from Myles Tutors to help me out. Topics like vectors and integration seemed so alien before, but my tutor really helped me understand what was going on and made me feel really confident answering questions on them. I got an A overall, and I'm not sure I would have done without my tutor, he was excellent.- M Fedorov, Kensington
I sought tuition from Myles Tutors as I wanted my son to transfer from a state primary to a private preparatory school at 8+. As my son has only been in England for a few years, I was worried his academic options would be limited. They were very reassuring and thanks to added focus on English, my son made quick progress in a matter of months, moving up a set at school. They was always on hand to answer questions and was able to teach my son in an educational but friendly manner. Much to my delight, my son gained places at Westminster Under, Wetherby, Kings College Junior School and Colet Court. I will be forever grateful as I simply could not have done it without the assistance of Myles Tutors.- M Lapa, Chelsea
We wanted our daughter to have the best possible chance when sitting 11+ entrance exams so we sought advice and tuition from a recommended tutor. From the start, our tutor had invaluable knowledge and insight into the UK's best private schools. After an initial assessment, our tutor guided both my daughter and ourselves through the necessary preparation material including an endless library of practise papers. Our tutor was reliable, patient and my daughter found her a clear and excellent teacher. But also brought an element of fun, inspiring my daughter. After a year of intensive work, my daughter received offers from all our chosen schools, including two academic scholarships. I could not recommend Myles Tutors enough - we cannot wait to have our tutor back for our younger children! - M Jameson, Wimbledon
