Our lessons

Your child has one-to-one English lessons with our UK-trained subject specialists on our interactive online whiteboard.

Our whiteboard replicates an in-person lesson, as we share a fully interactive digital school copybook with each student.

Lessons last one or two hours, whichever suits you, and are scheduled through our app.

To get started, simply message us on WhatsApp and we'll arrange a free trial lesson, so we can put your mind at ease.

Lessons follow what your child is studying at school. If they're stuck on a piece of homework, we'll always start by working through it together. You can follow your child's progress in our app.

How we help with English

Reading closely

Many English questions ask students to look carefully at a piece of writing and explain how it works. We read passages together and talk through what the writer is doing and why.

Planning longer answers

A good idea can get lost in a long answer. We help your child plan before they write, so each paragraph makes a clear point.

Using evidence

Answers usually need to be backed up with short quotations or examples. We practise choosing evidence and explaining it, rather than simply repeating it.

Writing to a time limit

Writing in an exam feels different from writing at home. We practise planning, writing and checking within a set time, so your child gets used to the pace.

Levels we teach

We teach English at GCSE, IGCSE and A-level, and in the IB.

A-level English goes into more depth than GCSE or IGCSE. For more on the step up to A-level, see our A-level page.

Our IB page explains more about the MYP and the Diploma Programme.

We also teach maths, chemistry, physics and biology.

Where to begin

When you message us, it helps to tell us your child's year group, the exam board and what they find hardest, such as reading, essays or timed writing. If you're not sure of the board, your child's school will be able to tell you, or we can work it out together.

Questions parents ask

How do we book a lesson?

Message us on WhatsApp and we'll arrange a free 30-minute trial lesson. After that, we'll set you up on our app, where you can schedule lessons and monitor your child's progress.

We don't live in the UAE. Can my child still have lessons?

Yes. All our lessons are online, so families join us from the UK, Europe and all over Asia.

Which exam boards do you cover?

We teach students following Edexcel, Cambridge and OxfordAQA courses.

My child enjoys reading but struggles to write about it. Can you help?

Yes. Enjoying reading is a good start. We help your child turn what they notice into clear written points, backed up with evidence.
