My Approach
I teach the question types that come up, drill exam technique, and use timed practice so the format feels familiar. Just as importantly, I help children stay calm and avoid silly mistakes under pressure.
Where It Leads
Students walk into the exam knowing what to expect, able to manage their time, and far less likely to freeze — with strong foundations that carry straight into secondary maths.
Why 11+ Preparation Maths Tutoring Helps
11+ and entrance exams ask children to work quickly and accurately under timed conditions — a big step up from everyday classwork. Strong maths knowledge isn't enough on its own; pace, technique and keeping a cool head all matter just as much.
My 11+ preparation combines targeted topic work with realistic timed practice. We identify the question styles that catch children out, build the speed and accuracy to handle them, and steadily replace exam nerves with quiet confidence.
11+ Maths Preparation — FAQs
Typically fast mental arithmetic, multi-step word problems, fractions, ratio and reasoning questions — all to be answered accurately under time pressure.
Ideally several months before the exam. Starting earlier gives time to fix any gaps calmly, rather than cramming close to the date.
Yes. Realistic timed practice is a key part of my 11+ prep so the format and pace feel completely familiar by exam day.
