Question 1

How much does private tuition cost?

Accepted Answer

Lessons are priced at £55 per session for online tuition and £60 per session for in-person tuition. Each session is 45 minutes. Block booking discounts are available — please get in touch for details.

Question 2

How do I know which tutor is right for my child?

Accepted Answer

Before your child begins lessons, we take time to understand their learning style, their current level and their goals. We then pair them with the tutor best suited to their needs. If the match does not feel right, we will work with you to find a better fit.

Question 3

Do you offer online tuition?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All tuition services are available online as well as in person. Online sessions work particularly well for families with busy schedules and for international clients based in Europe, Asia and the Middle East. Sessions take place via video call and are just as structured and effective as in-person lessons.

Question 4

When should we start 11+ preparation?

Accepted Answer

We generally recommend beginning 11+ preparation in Year 4 or early Year 5, depending on your child's starting point and the schools you are targeting. Some competitive schools require a longer preparation period, particularly where Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning are unfamiliar subjects.

Question 5

Which schools have your students gained places at?

Accepted Answer

Our students have secured places at a wide range of highly regarded independent schools across Surrey, Berkshire, Hampshire and Greater London. We are happy to discuss this in more detail on a call, as school recommendations are always tailored to the individual child.

Question 6

Are your tutors qualified teachers?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every tutor at Surrey Hills Tutors holds Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) and brings significant classroom experience. All tutors are Enhanced DBS checked.

Question 7

Which local schools do you have experience with?

Accepted Answer

We have extensive experience supporting children applying to independent schools across Surrey, Berkshire and Hampshire, including schools in the Guildford, Cranleigh and Godalming areas. We are happy to discuss specific schools during an introductory call.

Question 8

Do you run workshops as well as one-to-one lessons?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Surrey Hills Tutors runs 11+ Exam Workshops and Creative Writing Workshops at a central Guildford venue throughout the year. These small group sessions are open to all children, whether or not they are existing tuition clients.
