At Merit Tutors, we have a team of qualified schoolteachers and examiners who are experienced in teaching pupils from the East London area.Thiscomprehensive background of our staff ensures that we are able to guarantee excellent progress and success for every student at our tuition centre.
KS1 students range from 4 to 7 years old, and our teachers are experienced in handling younger children with a lovely manner where they are encouraged with positive reinforcement rather than forced to do well. Group Tutoring: Our classes have around 5/6 students in each group, creating a personable and calm environment in which the teachers can maintain focus on every individual’s needs. Our centre creates personalised resources in line with the national curriculum, so while that we can target each individual directly, whilst also making sure they are in line with the national structure. Numeracy is a big struggle for most young students as they are still grasping the basics, such as the addition and subtraction of numbers. Merit Tutors use grid methods to allow students to visually see the addition and subtraction taking place. We even find fun and easy methods to teach students how to complete multiplication sums so that they can do them with ease at school,among many other curriculum skills that they may be struggling with in their mainstream classrooms where there is less individualised, child-centred learning available, impressing their peers and teachers!
A high-quality mathematics education in KS1 provides a foundation for understanding the world, where the ability to reason mathematically allows one to communicate daily in real life situations such as using pocket money and shops. Merit teachers equip young children to become fluent in the basics of mathematics so that they can quickly solve real life numerical problems.
Each KS1 numeracy teacher conducts regular, short tests on the topics they have been working with in each unit with the students. This enables the teachers, the parents and the students themselves to obtain a sense of the progress that is being made and the areas that need to be worked on further.
Every week, homework is given to the students from the booklet provided by the centre and each student is expected to complete the work before their next session.
We keep online records of each student and make sure that we know exactly what topics they are excelling and struggling in, and where they need help and advancement.
Paper feedback is also provided to students which they use at home to further practice and improve what they have learnt in our lessons.
What the Students Think…
“I really enjoy numeracy and at Merit Tutors, they make us do higher level stuff if we are already getting good marks, which is fun!”
Our students are encouraged not to work at only one level for all - if a student is doing really well for their age in numeracy, then they are provided with advanced learning materials so that they develop their skills even further rather than allowingthem to plateau. We cater for all abilities, including students who are gifted and talented in a particular area.
