One-to-One Tutoring for
UK School Entrance Exams

At Ready Set Prep, we offer expert one-to-one tuition for children aged 6 to 13+, tailored to support their academic journey at every stage—from building strong foundations to preparing for the UK’s most competitive entrance exams.

Our tutoring is available in person (West London only) or online, offering flexibility to suit each family’s needs. Every session is designed to be purposeful, engaging, and tailored to the individual learner, whether they’re preparing for 6+, 7+, 8+, 11+ or 13+ assessments—or simply looking to strengthen their core skills in English, Maths, and Reasoning.

We combine structured teaching with confidence-building strategies to help each child reach their full academic potential. Lessons are thoughtfully planned to support progress, encourage intellectual curiosity, and equip pupils with the tools they need to succeed—not just in exams, but in their wider learning journey.

What we cover

  • We build strong foundations in comprehension, creative writing, grammar, and vocabulary - skills essential for success in both entrance exams and classroom learning. Pupils learn to read with understanding, express themselves clearly in writing, and use rich, accurate language to communicate ideas effectively. Our teaching nurtures critical thinking and creativity, helping children respond thoughtfully to both fiction and non-fiction texts.

  • Our Maths sessions cover mental arithmetic, written calculation strategies, and multi-step problem-solving. We focus on building fluency, mathematical reasoning, and confidence under timed conditions. Pupils learn to approach unfamiliar questions methodically and explain their thinking clearly - essential skills for entrance exams and ongoing school success.

  • We prepare pupils in both verbal and non-verbal reasoning, helping them recognise patterns, process information quickly, and think logically under pressure. Using a wide variety of question types and techniques, we equip children to tackle the abstract thinking required in 7+, 8+, 11+, and 13+ entrance assessments.

  • Our interview preparation helps children speak with clarity, confidence, and authenticity. Through guided discussions and mock interviews, pupils develop the self-expression and communication skills needed to connect with unfamiliar adults and present themselves thoughtfully. We help each child understand how to articulate their interests, reflect on experiences, and engage in conversation with maturity and warmth.
