Teacher reviews of our KS1 and KS2 school maths tutoring

“TLC has been a fantastic organisation to work with. They took the time to understand our needs, worked with us on a SAT’s programme and then delivered it seamlessly and at extremely high-quality. The students loved it and really engaged. As one said, “I didn’t used to like maths and now it is my favourite subject.” Working with our teacher’s TLC delivered continual monitoring and feedback. The staff were impressed, and the students attained fantastic SATs results.”

Alex Prior, Etonbury Academy, Arlesey

“From September to April we would be expecting a 2.0 improvement. Those children receiving TLC LIVE tuition from February to April achieved 2.8 in writing and 2.5 in maths.”

Vicky McGregor, Warwick Primary School

“The service and communication is excellent, and the flexibility to tailor the content to your pupils’ needs is outstanding. I have no hesitation in recommending TLC.”

Peter Gibbon, Great Baddow High School, Chelmsford

Parent reviews of our KS1 and KS2 school maths tutoring

Parents rate TLC’s KS1 and KS2 school maths tutoring 4.46 out of 5 stars

“Having had three children attending TLC LIVE over the last couple of years, I can wholeheartedly recommend it.”

“My daughter was in Year 5 and needed some help with maths. TLC enhanced her confidence and made the learning fun. Last May, she achieved outstanding results in SATS and now at secondary school she continues to go from strength to strength.”

“TLC has changed our lives. Both mine and my son’s. School was dreaded: parents’ evenings a list of things he had not achieved and homework a battle. The TLC team have shown Finn a world where learning is fun and where he is given the time he needed to ‘grasp the nettle’. He loves his sessions and already his test results have gone up a whole level.”

How our KS1 and KS2 maths tutoring works

Step 1

Our process begins with a free initial assessment to determine areas where the student doesn’t feel confident. Lessons run through term time. You can book onto the whole course or join the remaining sessions whenever suits your student – and you’ll only ever pay for the lessons they attend.

Step 2

Using the assessment results, a tutor creates a comprehensive learning plan designed specifically for that student. They leverage over 35,000+ hours of material to create personalised content.

Step 3

Our KS1 and KS2 maths tutoring sessions last for 60 minutes, and the student receives the full attention of one of our tutors as they work through the lesson content. To join the session, students simply log in from any internet-connected device.

Step 4

Once the session is over, the tutor makes notes on the pupil’s performance and shares it with their teacher. Regular best-in-class pupil assessments provide data to quantify their progress.

How long does each session last?

Sessions last for 60 minutes.

At what time are the sessions?

Lessons can be scheduled to suit the student’s needs. TLC LIVE also runs lots of lessons over holidays as targeted revision or catch-up sessions.

Is the tutoring based on the student’s needs?

Yes! This is the whole point of TLC LIVE. The tutor will identify the student’s learning needs and skill gaps and build an individual learning plan around these requirements.

Do you give homework?

No. TLC LIVE lessons are structured to maximise learning and address gaps in the student’s knowledge within the session.

Do students have tailored lesson plans?

Yes, every student is given their own individual learning plan. After the initial assessment, we put a plan together that deals with the skill gaps identified. The plan will be adjusted as other areas of required academic focus come to light.

What learning content will the student be using?

We have our own targeted educational content that we update on a daily basis.

How does TLC LIVE monitor student progress?

Tutors work with students in real time, guiding them through new skills and reviewing things the students may have forgotten. At the end of every session, tutors provide information on the student’s performance and progress. Schools can access this by logging into the TLC LIVE website and reviewing this feedback, watching as the student develops understanding, and eventually mastery, of the topics they are studying.

What qualifications do TLC LIVE tutors have?

All of our UK-based tutors are fully qualified to teach and have classroom teaching experience. We ensure all tutors have Qualified Teaching Status (QTS) and are PGCE qualified with an accompanying bachelor’s degree. Each of our tutors also holds a DBS.

Can I cancel a session?

All lessons can be cancelled or rearranged with 36 hours’ notice. This gives you the freedom to use TLC LIVE as and when you need it, whether for one-off revision sessions or regular lessons.

Can I reschedule a lesson?

Yes, you can cancel and reschedule a session provided that you give us 36 hours’ notice. Whether this is to change a student’s timetable permanently or simply for a one-off lesson, we can support you to ensure the lessons are running at a time that best suits your student’s needs.
