Virtual STEM Study Club

Impactful small group tuition

 

Who is this for?

If your child is sitting their GCSEs in 2024, and they have access to an internet-enabled device, this is for them.

You don’t need any special equipment to participate, and the sessions are priced to be inclusive of all budgets. 

The classes are low pressure, supportive, and designed to be low threat specifically to support anxious students. There is no whip-cracking discipline. We are here to bring the best learning experience for your child. 

At the same time, your instructor is very experienced at engaging disengaged and anxious students. We pitch the content to the students present, and if someone is losing interest we’ll adjust accordingly. No one is left behind!

The best of education research

The Education Endowment Foundation found that small group tuition has an average impact of four months’ additional progress over the course of a year. And there’s nothing average about our study club. 

Alongside weekly tuition covering maths, biology, chemistry, and physics, your child will get access to our unique Study Success Programme. This will teach them the science behind exam performance, and give them an edge over their peers. The Education Endowment Foundation reports that the potential impact of this metacognition and self-regulation approach is high (+7 months additional progress). The evidence indicates that explicitly teaching strategies to help plan, monitor and evaluate specific aspects of their learning can be effective, which is exactly what this programme is designed to achieve.

And that’s not all – this programme has an accompanying programme for you to learn what steps your child needs to take this year, how you can support them and yourself through the process, and how to tackle challenging conversations about their goals without meltdowns. 

Virtual classroom technology

Our virtual classroom is hosted by Pencil Spaces, sponsors of the Love Tutoring Festival at BETT, The Tutors’ Association Conference 2023, the TTA Awards 2023, and proud ambassador for the tutoring community. 

You can play with this technology in our demo classroom at Pencil Spaces!

Pencil Spaces was designed in close collaboration with tutors, including Georgina of Green Tutors, to make it the best virtual classroom experience for tutors and for learners. Their safety features, integrated technology, scheduling, and collaborative whiteboard make it easy for students to stay engaged in the lesson, and easy for tutors to monitor several students at once. 

Following the education research, we limit class sizes to 6 students for the maximum impact for each student. However every student gets their own workspace so they can have confidence to learn at their own pace.

Range of classes

We have created a selection of classes that your child can choose from each week. 

Each class is £15, running weekly from 26th February until 24th May (with one week break in April). To join your chosen class(es) for that time would be £180.

If you sign up before the 19th February you can access the early bird discount and access the classes for just £144 with a mystery bonus included.

Our expert tutor is experienced with a range of exam boards, and is well able to cater the lessons to your child’s needs. 

How do I join?

Sign up and access the classes here.

One purchase gives you access to one class per week (with a mystery bonus included if you purchase before 12th February). 

With the early bird discount you can access each weekly class until May for just one single payment of £144. 

After this each weekly class will be £15, £180 for the series, or £900 to access all classes, all subjects. 

Georgina is brilliant, patient and has brought my daughter up from struggling with maths to being the first to put her hand up in class.
