My 8 years old son struggled in English and Maths. We started excelr8 10 months ago and seen a improvement in both subjects, especially maths and his confidence has been just boosted. It was such good feeling for us when his class teacher told us that he is very good in maths. Thanks to Ania and Daryl who does such a amazing work with him and Pooja who keeps an eye on all the lesson are booked. I would recommend excelr8 to any parent who think their child is struggling in school. It is worth it.

Excellent progress made at Excelr8

My son attended lessons at Excelr8 for several years, initially to ensure that he was being stretched beyond what was offered at school. We definitely noticed improvements in his writing and vocabulary, and also in his ability to draft and edit his own work. He brought home some lovely writing we've kept. His mental arithmetic processing seemed to speed up as well. The small class sizes mean students receive a lot of individual attention. We only discontinued lessons for logistical reasons, would have no hesitation in re-registering were it possible, and my younger son now attends in his place. I'd highly recommend Excelr8 Learning for students of all abilities.

Excellent private science coaching at Excelr8

Excelr8 helped my daughter in preparing for her Science GCSEs. Jowita is a very sincere and dedicated teacher and has been very helpful in boosting Esha’s confidence for the exams. Pooja on the other hand has been amazing in ensuring all the lessons were booked in time and replacements available wherever applicable. We will definitely recommend Excelr8 to our family and friends.

Highly recommended

I am really pleased with the way Excelr8 teachers helped my daughter with her confidence in English and Maths. She has been with Excelr8 since 2011. I highly recommend it to all parents who are trying to help their children with after school studies to give them the extra boost. She also had the one to one science lessons for her GCSEs. The teachers have been truly amazing and my daughter thoroughly enjoyed her time there.

Maths Tutoring

Excelr8 have been so helpful supporting my daughter with her maths. The tutors have been very patient and supportive, and work at an appropriate pace so that learning is reinforced as she builds confidence in her own abilities. They are happy to match the topics my daughter is covering at school each week if that is helpful for her.

Excelr8 have been amazing from the beginning. They have brought out a confidence in my daughter that I never thought would emerge. They are patient, kind and encouraging at all times. Their communication with parents is great and I am extremely happy with the fantastic progress my daughter is making.

My son has been at Excelr8 for nearly three years now and started originally for handwriting assistance but actually he does so much more each week. It is hard to quantify whether the lessons are producing results at school as they tend to vary each term (!) but it gives me the confidence that he is getting extra help each week in a secure and non-judgemental environment to re-affirm his learning.

Thank you for your comment. We enjoyed working with your 2 children during their regular Saturday morning lessons from May 2013 to December 2014.

Our experienced teachers do use technology where it effectively supports a child's learning. For example, our National Curriculum tests make the initial assessment of each child’s progress against the UK Curriculum more precise. This ensures we accurately diagnose each child’s learning needs. We then create an individualised learning programme for each pupil.

Traditional teaching by highly-experienced teachers, aided by technology when appropriate, is the Excelr8 Learning way. Boosting self-esteem and confidence and ensuring each pupil achieves to the best of their ability are our primary aims.

My children have been attending Excelr8 Learning Orwell House in Cambridge Science Park since 2015. They always looking forward to their tutorials in English Language. We have noticed substantial improvements in their ability in this subject. They are increasing developing their writing and grammatical skills. A big thank you to the staff that made the subject easily understandable to my children.
I will definitely recommend Excelr8 Learning for parents who want to help their children catch up with school work.

No reservations at all

No reservations at all. Both my children, age 7 and 10 have been attending extra tuition at the Hardwick site for the last couple of years, and will continue until they leave secondary school! It’s very much a joint decision between parent and tutor about what you want your child to get out of it. Rachel is very sensitive to each child’s individual needs and always listens to any concerns.
