AWARD-WINNING MATHS AND ENGLISH TUITION Voted no.1 private tuition centre in the UK FREE TRIAL SESSION!

Rated Excellent by parents OUR HISTORY I cannot praise them highly enough They are simply fantastic. They have created a fun environment that thoroughly engages children and really delivers results. 18 months ago I was really worried about my grandson s English, but he has improved drastically since attending Explore, which has done wonders for his confidence. I would thoroughly recommend Explore Learning for any child. Since 2001 over 200,000 children have excelled academically, reached their potential and achieved the best possible results with Explore Learning. We are unwavering in our mission to develop a generation of Fearless Learners; children who will excel in the classroom, be confident in exams and fearless in school and beyond. Born out of the desire to provide the best possible complement to a school education, our centres are accessible to all young learners, regardless of their means, background, or ability. Our first tuition centre opened in Chelmsford, with a handful of brilliant people, high hopes and a ton of energy and passion. It was an instant success and we have now grown to over 125 centres across the UK and have even expanded to the US. What s more, we ve won countless awards, been voted Best Tuition Provider in the UK and rated Excellent on the independent review site, Trustpilot. Confidence My daughter had fallen behind during Key Stage 1 and was being bullied, therefore she had lost her confidence. When we moved schools in Key Stage 2, we joined Explore Learning to help her catch up. Not only did she catch up, she developed her confidence and everything started to improve. This is a great environment for kids who are struggling, need confidence or want to excel at school. To read more reviews, visit trustpilot.com May we say thank you for helping and encouraging the children to learn and achieve their goals and giving them skills that they will benefit from for the rest of their lives. Chelmsford mum of 3, member for 10 years EducationInvestor Awards 2016 Ages 4-14 Mapped to the school curriculum No booking required Flexible opening hours

HOW IT WORKS Monthly membership Children become members and attend once or twice a week for sessions lasting approximately 1hr 15 minutes. Membership is paid on a rolling monthly basis. Flexible opening hours All our centres open after school and at the weekend. For a full list of opening hours, please visit explorelearning.co.uk Kade, age 7 Member since April 2016 Mapped to the school curriculum Our teaching methods and content are mapped to the school curriculum, ensuring that everything your child learns is directly transferable back to the classroom. No pre-booking required Our membership is designed to work around you. Children can attend outside school hours throughout the week and also at weekends and during school holidays. Tailored to your child Your child is unique. That s why, at Explore, every child has their own programme of work, which adapts to their own particular strengths and development needs. 1:6 tutor ratio From years of experience, we have found that a ratio of one tutor to six children is the perfect balance between giving children individual support and encouraging independent learning. A safe environment Our centres are Ofsted registered and all staff are Enhanced DBS checked. For children of all abilities Gone are the days of tuition just being for those who are struggling! Just like you would take your child to a club to help them learn new skills, nurture their talents, or allow them to do more of something they love, our award-winning tuition achieves just that - giving every child the opportunity to grow and shine. Whether your child is struggling, needs inspiration or a confidence boost, or to be stretched and challenged, our tailored approach supports children of all abilities. Over the years we ve helped thousands of children, no two of them the same. We ve assembled a host of different members stories, so we can show you just how varied the children we support are and the ways we adapt to help each and every one of them. Ages 4-14 Children with SEN, including Autism, Dyslexia, ADHD Gifted and Talented English as second language Need confidence support Need support with making new friends Love of learning Behind target Kade suffers from glue ear, which causes hearing difficulties. He was struggling with his phonics and reading and needed some extra help. The atmosphere at Explore makes learning feel fun for him. Kade has moved from being behind with his phonics to passing his SATs in just over a year! Emily, age 11 Member since April 2015 We joined Explore to help raise Emily s low self-esteem and confidence. The tutors always make Emily feel welcome in every session. They are supportive towards her by being friendly, approachable and encouraging. Since Emily has been attending, her school work and selfconfidence has significantly improved. This is clearly evident from her school reports and progression chart.

THAN JUST Ask us more about what you can expect for your child in your free trial session! Book online at explorelearning.co.uk MATHS AND ENGLISH Of course we believe that maths, English and exams are extremely important, but in addition to that, we are truly passionate about inspiring a generation of go-getters. Young, capable people who can leave school confident, excited and fearless; ready to tackle whatever their future may hold. Confidence Confidence is the first step on a child s journey to success. From giving children the confidence to put their hand up, make friends or learn that sometimes it s OK to make mistakes-we re experts in building self-belief. Progress Independently proven results. Whether it s passing an exam, moving up a set at school or mastering new skills, we ensure children progress academically, socially and help improve their attitude to learning. Our mission is to inspire Fearless Learners. A Fearless Learner is someone who is not afraid to make mistakes and knows when to ask for help. They are thirsty for knowledge, and hungry to know why. What makes a Fearless Learner? A love of learning We give children the skills to unlock their imagination and discover the magic of learning. We inspire chidlren with an eagerness to find out more and a desire to understand; not because they have to, but because they want to. Be exam ready Is your child preparing to sit the 11 Plus, a local entrance exam, the SATs or an end-of-term test? Our tailored approach will encourage a fearless attitude, whilst developing their speed, accuracy and exam technique. A fearless learner isn t scared like a mouse, but brave like a lion, and that s what Explore Learning has helped me be! Sumitt, age 8, Hounslow member In a world of information, we need to challenge and question more than ever before. To help children thrive in school and beyond, we need to develop their learning habits, alongside their knowledge. Fearless Learners aren t always born that way, but with constant support and guidance from our tutors, children will develop resilience, confidence and the ability to step back and see how they can improve. Confidence to ask questions Determination to hunt for answers Knowing when to ask for help Excitement to try new things Not afraid to make mistakes Maths Problem solving English Reading Spelling Comprehension Brave to present in front of their class Gumption and a positive learning attitude

Explore Learning is what I call education in heaven. The best place to learn new things and improve on things you already know. Similarly, school is the same but the only difference is Explore Learning helps you learn and perfect what you have learnt in school. On the other hand the actual place is fantastic. Aysin, age 10, Explore Learning member HOW DO WE ACHIEVE THIS? Inspiring tutors Everyone remembers that person who inspired them: a teacher, a friend, a family member. Someone who changed how they saw things and helped them to see their potential. That s exactly what our tutors do. They are young, bright, successful and all share a passion for education. All of our tutors are experts in the school curriculum, teaching methods and how to get the best out of every child. We are always blown away by the amount of stories from our members about the difference their tutor has made to them. They are the heart of our company and what makes us unique. Thanks to our amazing people and our one-of-a-kind centres, we re proud to have been voted one of the best companies to work for in the UK. A culture of praise and reward Children who make the most progress are the ones who have fantastic attitudes towards learning. Research shows that rewarding children for persistence and thinking on their feet has a positive effect on academic attainment. Our reward system recognises children for mastering targets and praises them for their learning process. A vibrant environment Our centres are vibrant and engaging - a place that children want to come to. Our unique setting provides each child with a personal learning space amidst a warm, social, productive environment. Support for the whole family You know your child better than anyone. That s why it s important that you are involved every step of the way. With feedback every session, regular parents meetings and open sessions, you will get an indepth insight into your child s work, areas of difficulty and their progress. We are always on hand to discuss your child s development, the school curriculum and ways that you can support them at home. INSPIRING TUTORS INDIVIDUALISED CURRICULUM FEARLESS LEARNERS

Ansh, 6 years Stretch and challenge Course Level Expected progress in Year 1 Ansh s expected progress in Year 1 Ansh s progress at Explore We feel Ansh has always been academically minded. We worked out a programme with Explore to steadily make Ansh s curriculum more challenging, interesting and fun. Now he is working at a much higher level than what is covered in his Year 1 curriculum at school. For us, Explore is a medium through which he can achieve the advanced levels he wants to achieve, without getting bored. Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug David, 12 years Working towards targets I discovered David had special educational needs when he was 3. Expected progress in Year 8 David s expected progress in Year 8 David s progress at Explore Explore has been like a second home to him, where he is welcomed for who he is and celebrated for what he can do. RESULTS Course Level Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug I believe it is a nurturing environment where the tutors know how to encourage him when he doesn t understand something, but know when to let his imagination and creativity take control. We have been members for about a year and David has progressed so much in his reading, comprehension and writing skills. In 2011 the University of Reading carried out an independent study to assess the impact Explore Learning has on children s academic and personal progress. The results proved: It s not a quick fix... Keira, 10 years Confidence boost I decided to join Explore because my daughter needed help in maths and English. Explore members significantly improved their Standardised Age Scores in Progress in English and Progress in Maths. Explore Learning members improvement in maths was 30% higher than that of the comparison group. Building confidence; overcoming shyness; being more independent and less reluctant to try without assistance were all elements that parents recognised in their children and directly attributed to Explore Learning. Tackling challenging areas, learning new skills and changing children s attitudes doesn t happen overnight. Enabling children to blossom into confident, independent learners is a long-term process. Our approach is designed to be a long-term complement to school, supporting your child in term time and holidays, to thrive in the classroom and beyond. Course Level Expected progress in Year 6 Keira s expected progress in Year 6 Keira s progress at Explore Sep Oct Nov Dec Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Explore has helped Keira with confidence and has given her a real boost. Explore is fun and enjoyable. The tutors encourage Keira to challenge herself, step out of her comfort zone and to be independent, whilst giving her the extra support she requires. Keira always comes out saying how glad she is that she has been to Explore that day.
