Transfer Test tutors in East Belfast
The recent changes to the Primary
School curriculum have made it increasingly difficult for schools to
cater for the needs of children preparing for the transfer to Grammar
School. At Kip McGrath East Belfast, we provide a free assessment from which we can pinpoint
any areas of weakness and tailor a programme of study designed to bring
your child up to the level required for the test. Our lessons are 80 minutes long, which allows us to work on both English
and Maths as well as past papers. Homework is also offered to
reinforce learning. Our tuition involves extensive past paper practice in both the AQE and
GL Assessment papers, which is vital to improve exam technique.
Our service includes:
- Detailed assessment of your child's needs
- Past paper practice including AQE and GL Assessment
- Exam technique
- Ongoing assessment week by week to ensure no area of weakness is missed
- Homework to reinforce learning
GCSE Maths tutors in East Belfast
At Kip McGrath we aim to pinpoint a student's areas of weakness and bring them to a level that enables success at the test. For those students who are doing either foundation or the higher
tier, a thorough grasp of topics covered in the curriculum is required
to achieve their best grade and a knowledge of how these topics relate
to each other. Because we work to the individual needs of the students, we can
establish why a student fails to grasp a topic and correct any mistakes
to ensure the
student now has all the background needed to understand. Our combination of targeted reinforcement of mathematical facts
and past paper practice will ensure your child is ready for the test.
- Free assessment
- Targeted programme of study
- Past paper practice including CEA, AQA and OCR
GCSE English tutors in East Belfast
Unlike other subjects,
there are few facts. Rather, GCSE English is almost
entirely focussed on acquiring skills – principally reading and writing. At Kip McGrath we give students the confidence to write an essay with
fluency and structure, developing their comments and observations
appropriately for an examiner. We concentrate on improving comprehension, spelling, grammar and essay
writing skills to produce a well rounded student, ready for the exams. As the students approach their exams they are able to work through
past papers under exam conditions, which are marked with the examination
board's criteria in mind.
