SATs
​
Give your child the support they need to excel in their SATs with comprehensive, personalised tuition. I provide tailored lessons designed to build confidence, fill knowledge gaps, and develop essential exam techniques.
​
Generalised exam preparation
From 11+ to 13+ exams, I have guided many pupils to success, with several earning scholarships to top schools. My targeted preparation focuses on verbal and non-verbal reasoning, core academic skills, and confidence-building to ensure pupils are fully prepared to excel.
​
Comprehensive Academic Support
General tuition in English and Maths for Key Stage 2 (KS2) and Key Stage 3 (KS3), helping pupils build a strong foundation and transition smoothly to secondary school. Additionally, I offer creative writing and interview skills coaching to enhance self-expression and communication.

Up to GCSE, I specialise in Latin, Religious Education, and History, helping pupils achieve outstanding results through engaging, tailored lessons. Whether it’s mastering complex Latin grammar or developing critical thinking for RE essays, my support equips pupils to thrive in these challenging subjects.

Choose between in-person tuition in Wiltshire, Berkshire, and Oxfordshire (£50ph + travel expenses) or online lessons via Zoom (£47.50ph). With hundreds of hours of online teaching experience, I ensure each session is interactive, effective, and tailored to your needs.

"Robert has been supporting my son to prepare for entrance examinations and interview for a private secondary school in West Berkshire. Robert has taken a very child focussed and holistic approach to my son's tuition, playing to his strengths and building my son's self-esteem and confidence as well as focussing on all that is needed for a successful application. He absolutely loves his lessons with Robert! He is a happier boy having this positive teaching relationship in his life."

"Robert tutored my daughter and I in Latin for approximately one academic year in order to work towards taking Latin GCSE. My daughter’s school does not offer Latin, so Robert’s tutoring was our sole teaching, rather than being supplementary to school. Robert tailored lessons brilliantly to our learning, the pace was just right and he was always ready and able to explore areas of interest to us. Robert planned lessons carefully to make sure we progressed through the required syllabus and was extremely attentive to our areas of strengths and weakness and where we might need extra explanation or practice. We particularly appreciated all the extra online Latin games and revision tools he created. Robert always communicated promptly, gave clear and helpful feedback on written work and was a pleasure to learn from."
