Grammar Schools

The tutors we have used from Clarendon Tutors have all been exceptional. My daughters, 14 and 16, are now both excelling in maths which a few years ago would have been unthinkable.

Our son Milo was having a very tough time meeting his prep school's levels and his self-confidence was suffering. Vicious circle. We tried several tutoring agencies/crammers but they didn't make a huge difference. Then some friends told us that their son had done really well with Clarendon Tutors and we tried them for six months before his CE. He sailed into our school of choice and, just as importantly, has regained confidence in himself. He even admitted he quite enjoyed his sessions with his tutor, which is pretty unusual for a 13- year old! Thanks very much, Clarendon!

Clarendon were excellent in helping prepare our eldest son for Maths GCSE and our second son for 11+, so we had no hesitation in using Clarendon again when it was time for our third son to prepare for 11+. Orlando looked after us brilliantly, giving our son an initial assessment at home and online, from which he paired us with a suitable tutor. Fred tutored our son brilliantly over a period of six months, demonstrating a mastery of the subjects and the specific requirements of each exam at each of our target schools. He quickly identified areas for improvement, listened carefully to our requests and observations (as well as to our son’s), and responded by adapting content and approach as appropriate. Critically, Fred inspired our son to learn, and to do his best, by winning our son’s trust and respect right from the first meeting and building a strong working relationship. To cap it all, our son was awarded the maximum academic scholarship at our preferred school. I have no hesitation in giving Clarendon the highest recommendation!
