Better Tuition can help you avoid the summer slide.
Find out about our 2019 Summer School here.
Is your child ready for the next school year? Is s/he meeting expected standards in maths, reading and writing? If so, congratulations: you are in a wonderful position. But whilst s/he may be where s/he needs to be at the end of the summer term, in September it could well be a different story. What’s more, if your child is a little behind in some subjects, or has gaps in knowledge, s/he may find the next school year more than a little tricky.
Summer study gives your child the opportunity to fill in learning gaps, retain current levels of core skills and rekindle motivation for learning. Better Tuition’s summer school does far more than that, however: it is our aim for your child to begin the new school year brimming with confidence and enthusiasm. We will help him or her develop new skills to give them a strong foundation for the new school year. Our summer school lessons promote strong study skills that will really give your child the edge s/he needs to get ahead in the new school year.
Professors Brent Davies and Trevor Kerry, from the International Educational Leadership Centre at the University of Lincolnshire and Humberside have carried out extensive research in the field of summer learning loss. This found that students can regress by up to 1.8 months in core skills such as reading but in maths the learning loss suffered over summer is even more severe.
We know exactly how effective our summer school lessons are because we have been running them for ten years.Our own son has greatly benefited from consistent study over the summer break and we have many success stories.
One parent wrote the following:
“I can’t thank you enough for your wonderful help this summer. J is no longer worried about Year 5 and now feels he is ready for September.”
Another told us:
“The difference you made to M’s maths was unbelievable, she said it feels like she had a puzzle she couldn’t understand for years and years and years and then it all fell into place and now she knows she can pass GCSE next year and go on to achieve her dream of being a nurse.”
