It is so easy for parents to get swept up in a sort of 11+ mania, and quite understandably. Parental peer pressure at the school gates, and social media bamboozling, can create an unnecessary panic in well-meaning parents as to how much 11 plus revision their child should be doing and how it should be done!
Exam preparation can therefore become a bit like a part-time job for parents. Short, medium and long-term goals are set against the background of that looming September exam deadline. Blocks of time are scheduled for revision, exam details are repeatedly googled, and timetables and vocabulary lists are pinned on eye-level surfaces around the home…
If you recognise these traits in yourself (or a partner) please take a step back and breath a sigh of relief for you have just stumbled across 11+ prep salvation in the form of Profectus Tutoring. The joy of handing over the responsibility for your child’s exam pass to Profectus Tutoring is that all the worrying and detailed planning for your child is done for you, hence sparing you the sleepless nights. And as Profectus Tutoring has done it for years, you know you’re in good hands.
Coupled with an in-depth understanding of the task ahead and effective teaching practice, you can be reassured of a professional, nurturing and highly-effective approach from the first email enquiry.
At the heart of this personable tutoring business is the well-being of the child. I do not believe in putting pressure on young minds, nor setting hours and hours of excessive homework. I have the individual experience of each child at the heart of my teaching.
It is heart-breaking to hear of well-meaning parents pushing maths questions at mealtimes and in the car on the way to and from school. Most parents also talk openly about their 11+ anxieties over the heads of their children. Sometimes for years before the actual exam will take place.
So, cancel that Amazon textbook order! Drop that punishing programme of work you’ve been trying to pin down. Stop talking about the 11+ in front of your children (and friends). In fact, you can stop worrying about it at all: just get in touch and let Profectus Tutoring take the burden off your shoulders. I don’t just prepare your children for the 11+, I hold your hand through the experience also. What a great team we will make…
