Top of page Do you
employ fully qualified teachers?
 We
only employ fully qualified, experienced teachers who are registered
with the Department For Employment and Education.
We
never employ graduates without a teaching qualification, or student teachers.
Top of page Are you experienced enough to provide this service?
We
have 15 years experience of providing Group Tuition to Primary children.
We
have achieved an excellent reputation, particularly for our programme
of 11 plus preparation. We develop specialised materials for children
and have an excellent range of ability-appropriate materials in all subjects.
At
Swot Shop we provide all the materials your child needs, so you don't
have to provide any 'extras'.
Top of page What do you teach?
We
teach Maths, English and Reading for 5-12 year olds, using a combination
of traditional methods and materials, new technology, and specially developed
materials unique to Swot Shop.
Top of page What type of children attend tuition classes?
Bright
children who need a higher level of academic work.
Average
children whose parents feel that they need more practice in the 'basics'.
Children
who have fallen behind the rest of their class and need to spend time
on the foundations of numeracy and literacy.
Top of page Will my child be top of their class at the end of a 6 week booking
session?
Tuition
should result in a gradual improvement of the child's academic level.
Children
may make noticeable improvements in a 6 week period but the improvement
is more likely to be subtle and to manifest itself after a longer period
of regular tuition.
Extra
tuition enables children to achieve their full potential at school.

What
makes you better than the other tuition services?
Small
group work benefits all children. At Swot Shop, the ratio of pupils to
staff is never more than 5 to 1, so help is always near to hand.
We
employ qualified experienced Key Stage 1 & Key Stage 2 teachers.
Our system is based on working in small groups of children working with
qualified and professional staff. We believe that it is important for
young children to feel the safety of a group with more than one adult
present.
We offer tuition in our fully equipped, purpose built classroom. The
teachers have access to all popular work schemes, a fully stocked library
and educational software.
We guarantee our staff to pupil ratios to ensure the quality of our
service.
We
provide all appropriate work materials that are compliant with and supportive
of the latest National Curriculum and SATs. |
