Raving fans!
We are extremely grateful to all the VAKs tutors for the help they gave to Abbey in the run up to her entrance exam. She went into the exam with greater confidence and ultimately was accepted into our school of choice.
The teachers at VAKS are all very experienced. They have been very kind to my daughter. The Vaks approach towards 11+ is balanced and supportive. They follow a comprehensive course but they do not put undue pressure on the children. I am very happy with the service provided.

A warm welcome to VAKs 😁

We have been tried and tested for 19 years and have achieved outstanding success for students. We are real humans, don’t hesitate getting in touch.
At VAKS, we take a personalised approach to match your child with the right tutor and group. We begin with an initial consultation to understand your child’s specific needs and goals. Then, we offer a complimentary taster session to give your child the opportunity to try out the programme and meet the tutor. Following the session, the tutor provides detailed feedback on your child’s performance, which we use to create a customised plan to help your child achieve their specific goals. We then schedule a follow-up call with you to discuss the feedback, our recommendations and to ensure that the programme is meeting your expectations.

We recommend grouped tuition as our research has provided a number of benefits for students, including:
Shared learning experiences: In a group setting, students can learn from and with each other, which can create a more engaging and interactive learning environment.
Peer support: Grouped tuition can help students to feel less alone in their struggles and can provide a sense of camaraderie and support among students.
Structured learning: A group setting can provide a more structured and organised learning environment.
Variety of perspectives: A group setting can expose students to different perspectives and ways of learning, which can be beneficial in understanding a subject matter.
Practice and feedback: Grouped tuition can help students to practice what they have learned in a safe and supportive environment and get feedback from the tutor and peers.
Relevant to exam preparation: For certain subjects like math, science and languages, grouped tuition can be very helpful in preparing for exams.
Reduced anxiety: Grouped tuition can help to reduce anxiety by providing a supportive and non-threatening environment for students to learn and practice new skills.
