The key to success in education and the workplace is to be surrounded by inspiring and competent people who can give you the tools you need to reach their level, as well as the resources to do so. Our aim is first of all to ensure that the children know and understand what they need from the curriculum to pass their SATS, GCSEs and A-levels in order to satisfy the requirements of the education system. Yet more importantly to we seek to braoden their minds – to get them to want to learn and love learning by putting them in an environment with highly educated, motivated and intelligent teachers who have been successful in education and the workplace. Teaching staff include a mixture of highly qualified teachers, graduate students and other professionals who are keen to encourage children from all, and especially disadvantaged, backgrounds in to their professions such as engineering, the sciences, law and writing. We take those who are not professional teachers intentionally because many children would not otherwise be exposed to such high level professionals in their day to day lives, and these motivated, successful people have a wealth of specialist knowledge not taught in schools. We hope the children will be inspired by these people. Examples of what we have done outside of the curriculum include training children for the Maths Challenge which can eventually lead on to the Maths Olympiad and introducing some very basic ideas from number theory. One of our teachers was a philosophy graduate and tried teaching basic propositional logic and reasoning skills. Just before the last term ended, we started a program of reading classic English literature in the oldest classes and initiated a debating club. We also have an ambitious program in development to organize work experience and internships at big city firms, engineering companies and civil service institutions to show children what they can achieve if they put their minds to it. Finally, we want members of the community involved. They might teach, or act as classroom assistants or offer work experience or supervise behaviour – anything that gets parents involved with their children's education.

Kew Learning combines all the advantages of private tutoring with those of learning in a classroom environment. Many children struggle in large classes at school, as teachers are unable to meet the individual needs of 30+ students at any given time: some children are left to struggle through work they do not fully understand, while others may be bored and unstimulated by work they find too easy. At Kew Learning, by working with small groups, we can provide tailored, sensitive support and teaching according to the needs of your child, while also maintaining the focused, collaborative environment of a school classroom. Our lessons cover multiple fields, from curricular subjects like English and Maths from primary to secondary level, to extra-curricular activities such as Mandarin Chinese, Junior Computer Programming, Speech & Drama, Chess, Painting and tuition in Musical Instruments. Our courses are specially designed for different age groups, so you can rest assured that your child will receive the best support for their educational needs, as well as learning in a fun, stimulating environment. Inspiring Tutors At Kew Learning, the quality of our tutors is at the heart of what we do. All of our tutors are hand-picked for their experience and expertise in their given fields, so you can expect only the best teaching for your child. We look for tutors who have a genuine passion for their subjects, which they can instil and inspire in their students. All of our tutors are DBS checked and undergo a rigorous application process to ensure that they are driven, academically accomplished and, most importantly of all, inspiring teachers. Moreover, we ensure that our tutors are equipped with the best teaching resources, lesson plans and materials to ensure that your child learns according to a constructive and progressive scheme of work. This also allows us to assess and respond to each child’s individual needs and to gain a thorough understanding of how they learn, while providing parents with periodical academic reports so you can stay up to speed with your child’s progress. Exciting Learning Environment Children learn best when they are engaged, focussed and comfortable. Our Twickenham centre is a lively, friendly and well-equipped teaching environment, but most importantly it is a safe place where children can feel at home and develop a passion for learning. We’re confident that the moment you step into the centre, you’ll want to sign up for our classes, come see for yourself! A Culture Of Encouragement At Kew Learning we celebrate every child. Too often, schooling can focus on test results, league tables and assessment criteria. We recognise, however, that the best teaching is achieved by developing the confidence of the individual and ensuring that, for them, every learning experience is a positive experience. Certificates, stickers, reward boards and our prize cabinet are just some of the ways that we celebrate our students’ efforts and achievements. Furthermore, a great deal of research shows that rewarding children for persistence and thinking intuitively has a positive effect on their academic attainment. As such our reward system focusses not only on results, but also on the quality of thinking and the process of reaching those results. Frequent & Open Communication You know your child better than anyone. That’s why it’s important that you are involved every step of the way. Tutor’s written feedback after every session ensures you are always kept up to date with your child’s progress. What’s more, our monthly reports give you a thorough and comprehensive insight into your child’s work, areas where they may be struggling and their progress through the curriculum. We’re always available to discuss progress and answer questions, keeping you up to date curricular developments and offering parent information evenings on a whole range of topics.
