one to one tutoring for year 5 and 6 pupils helping them to enter SATs confidently

Lessons are delivered through structured, one-to-one sessions that are carefully planned around each pupil’s individual needs, ability level, and learning style. An initial assessment is used to identify strengths, gaps in knowledge, and areas that require targeted support, particularly in relation to the KS2 SATs curriculum.

Each lesson follows a clear and consistent format. Sessions begin with a brief recap of previous learning to reinforce understanding and build confidence, followed by focused teaching on key maths topics such as arithmetic, fractions, percentages, word problems, and mathematical reasoning. Concepts are explained step by step, ensuring pupils fully understand methods rather than relying on memorisation.

Lessons include guided and independent practice using SATs-style questions, helping pupils become familiar with exam language, question types, and time management. Clear working, accuracy, and exam technique are emphasised throughout. Support is adapted in real time, allowing explanations to be adjusted where needed to maximise progress.

Teaching is calm, patient, and encouraging, creating a positive learning environment where pupils feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. Progress is monitored regularly, with lesson content adjusted to ensure steady improvement in both ability and confidence
