This short, high energy group will focus on some of the more difficult aspects of 7+ exams, ensuring these rules are in place at an early stage.
Course Schedule
On Day I – we will look at reasoning – with a particular emphasis on puzzles and problem solving. We will address logic puzzles, alphabet sequences and codes, and non-verbal reasoning.
On Day II – we will look at difficult aspects of English – dictation, cloze spellings, and short pieces of writing, including both comprehension and composition.
On Day III – we will focus on maths. We will work on difficult rules such as number sentences, number analogies, and questions involving missing or reversed operations.
On Day IV – we will finish with a short assessment. This will cover all three subject areas and take a total of 90 minutes – this session will take place in the morning only. Students will receive detailed feedback, grades and advice the following day.
“Excellent tutors. They helped my son get into his ideal school and gave him brilliant focussed help that really worked for him and not just in the short term. I would highly recommend!”
