A little about me
Hello! I'm an experienced 11+ tutor based in Croydon, and I love helping children discover that they're more capable than they ever realised. Over the past three years I've tutored many young learners, guiding them through the 11+ and into grammar school.
My teaching approach is simple: every child is different, so every lesson plan is too. I start by understanding where your child is, then build their skills step by step — in English, Maths, Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning — at a pace that keeps them confident, never overwhelmed.
I believe the best results come from a calm, encouraging environment. We celebrate progress, learn from mistakes without any fuss, and keep things light so your child stays motivated all the way to exam day.

11+My speciality
New to the 11+? Here's the simple version
The 11+ is an exam children sit in Year 6 (around age 10–11) for a place at a grammar school. It usually tests four areas. Here's how I help, step by step.
📚 English
➗ Maths
🔤 Verbal Reasoning
🧩 Non-Verbal Reasoning
