Teacher reviews of our primary school maths tutoring

“Birchwood High School has worked with TLC for eight years and we have nothing but praise for their quality of tuition. Whether face-to-face or online, our students continue to thrive with the dedicated attention of excellent tutors. Highly recommended for quality intervention.”

Charles Gilbank, Birchwood High, Bishop’s Stortford

“TLC has been a fantastic organisation to work with. They took the time to understand our needs, worked with us on a SATs programme and then delivered it seamlessly and at extremely high-quality. The students loved it and really engaged. As one said, “I didn’t used to like maths and now it is my favourite subject.” Working with our teachers, TLC delivered continual monitoring and feedback. The staff were impressed, and the students attained fantastic SATs results. I am looking forward to continuing our relationship with TLC, who are definitely becoming part of our team.”

Alex Prior, Etonbury Academy, Arlesey

“The service and communication is excellent, and the flexibility to tailor the content to your pupils’ needs is outstanding. I have no hesitation in recommending TLC.”

Peter Gibbon, Great Baddow High School, Chelmsford

Parent reviews of our primary school maths tutoring

Parents rate TLC’s primary maths tuition 4.46 out of 5 stars

“TLC has changed our lives. Both mine and my son’s. School was dreaded: parents’ evenings a list of things he had not achieved and homework a battle. The TLC team have shown Finn a world where learning is fun and where he is given the time he needed to ‘grasp the nettle’. He loves his sessions and already his test results have gone up a whole level.”

“My daughter was in Year 5 and needed some help with maths. TLC enhanced her confidence and made the learning fun. Last May, she achieved outstanding results in SATS and now at secondary school she continues to grow from strength to strength.”

“Having had three children attending TLC LIVE over the last couple of years, I can wholeheartedly recommend it. Not only does it provide a fun and interactive programme tailored to meet students’ individual needs, it also gives students the opportunity to learn at their own pace with the support of excellent and very encouraging tutors. I have seen my children gain in confidence, achieve better results at school and above all enjoy their learning because of TLC LIVE.”

How primary maths tutoring with TLC works

Step 1

The process begins with a free initial assessment that identifies the pupil’s strengths and weaknesses. Lesson courses run through term time, and you can book onto the entire course or the remaining lessons, whenever suits the school’s needs. You’ll only ever pay for the lessons that the student attends.

Step 2

Using the assessment results, the tutor will create a comprehensive learning plan to help the student overcome their personal knowledge gaps. Our tutors have access to over 35,000+ hours of material, enabling them to create content that addresses each student’s unique needs.

Step 3

Our primary maths tutoring is delivered in the form of 60-minute sessions with a tutor. Joining the session is easy: students simply log in from any internet-connected computer and get started.

Step 4

Once the session is over, the tutor makes notes on the pupil’s performance and shares it with their teacher. Regular best-in-class pupil assessments provide data to quantify their progress.

What do our tutors say?

“I’ve been teaching primary maths for over a year and I find that the variety of topics and the quantity of lessons is great to progressively build up skills.”

 

“Five months into tutoring KS1, I come across a lot of students who struggle with long multiplication and not knowing their times tables. I really like teaching students with the mix of multiple-choice questions and ‘yes/no’ answers in TLC’s lesson content.”
