Who tuition for Grades 1 to 8 is for

  • Children in Grades 1 to 5 building reading, writing and number skills
  • Middle school students in Grades 6 to 8 getting ready for the Matric, O Level or IGCSE years
  • Children who find homework hard to finish without help
  • Children who are quiet in a big class and need time to ask questions
  • Families abroad whose children follow a Pakistani, Cambridge, British, IB, American or Gulf curriculum

Before you start

  • No entry test. Tell us your child's grade, school curriculum and textbooks.
  • A computer or tablet with a camera and a quiet place to sit, and Microsoft Teams or Zoom.
  • For younger children, a parent nearby at the start of class helps them settle.

Problems we help with

  • Gaps in basics such as reading fluency, times tables or fractions
  • Homework that ends in frustration for the child and the parent
  • A child who has fallen behind after moving school or country
  • Not knowing what the school expects at each grade
  • Busy parents who cannot sit with every subject each evening

What children learn, Grades 1 to 8

  • Grades 1 to 5: strong foundations

    • Reading with fluency and understanding, and building vocabulary
    • Handwriting, spelling, and writing simple sentences and paragraphs
    • Number sense, the four operations and times tables
    • Fractions, measurement, time and money
    • General Science: living things, materials, the human body and the world around us
  • Grades 6 to 8: ready for the exam years

    • Fractions, decimals, percentages, ratio and first steps in algebra
    • Geometry, angles, area and data handling
    • Grammar, comprehension, and structured writing such as essays and letters

    • Study habits: organising notes, revising for tests and checking work
  • Urdu and Arabic

    • Urdu reading, writing and grammar from the school textbook
    • Arabic from the alphabet, or the school's Arabic syllabus
    • Vocabulary, dictation and short written answers
  • How parents stay involved

    • Sit in on any class, all of it or part of it

How online lessons work for young children

  1. A free first class to meet the tutor

    The free 30-minute first class lets your child meet the tutor and lets the tutor see what your child already knows. You can sit in and ask questions at the end.

  2. Short, focused lessons

    Classes for this age are 45 minutes: long enough to learn something new and practise it, short enough for a young child to stay focused.

  3. The child's own school books

    Lessons follow your child's textbook and the school's order of topics, so tuition helps with what is happening in class this week.

  4. Explain, practise, praise

    The tutor explains one small step at a time, lets the child try it, corrects gently and moves on only when it is secure.

Drawing and writing together on screen

Children write, draw and solve on a shared Conceptboard whiteboard during the call, which keeps them doing rather than only listening. A touchscreen or tablet pen helps young children write, but a mouse also works.

What you’ll be able to do

  • Finish homework with more confidence and less help
  • Close gaps in basics such as reading, times tables and fractions
  • Ask questions freely, without waiting for a big class
  • Build study habits that help in the Matric, O Level or IGCSE years
  • Parents know what their child is working on and what to practise at home

These are the aims of the lessons. Progress depends on the student’s starting point and practice, and we never promise grades or results.
