Preparation can include English, Mathematics, Verbal Reasoning and Non-Verbal Reasoning, together with school-specific written papers, scholarship examinations and interviews.

Live, Interactive One-to-One Tuition

All Cambridge Academic Tuition lessons are delivered online, allowing students to work with the most appropriate teacher or subject specialist regardless of location.

Students simply need a computer or tablet, a reliable internet connection and a quiet place to work.

Lessons are live and interactive. Tutors can:

• share and annotate documents and examination papers
• use interactive whiteboards
• work through questions in real time
• share educational resources and presentations
• review homework and written work
• provide immediate feedback and explanations

Online tuition gives families access to specialist teachers without being limited by geography. It is particularly convenient for students at boarding school, international students and families who travel frequently.

Lessons can continue consistently during school holidays or periods away from home, and parents can communicate easily with tutors about progress and academic priorities.

Our online approach allows us to work with students throughout the UK, Europe, Asia, the Middle East and North America.
