Royal Docks Tuition in Royal Wharf

Local insight

We understand Royal Wharf, Britannia Village, and nearby schools in E16. Lessons are planned with awareness of what teachers expect, the timings of parents’ commutes, and the after-school clubs that shape your child’s week.

When we plan homework or extra practice, we keep Royal Docks family life in mind. We’d rather see steady practice that fits your week than unrealistic workloads that lead to frustration.

Confidence through structure

Every session follows the same rhythm: recap, teach, guided practice, independent task, and short reflection. This helps learners feel settled, reduces nerves, and makes it easier for parents to see exactly what was covered.

We share simple recap notes so you can look back at key steps in reading, writing, or problem-solving without hunting through messy exercise books.

Parent communication

You’ll get clear updates after lessons: what clicked, what needs more time, and which practice tasks to prioritise. If an assessment is coming up, we’ll map out exactly how many questions, drills, or reading passages we’ll complete each week.

For younger learners, we keep feedback short and practical—phonics sounds to revisit, handwriting patterns to repeat, or number facts to rehearse on the school run.

Small groups and 1:1

Most families start with small groups (up to 5) because it balances individual attention with a calm, sociable atmosphere. For very targeted goals—such as entrance exams, GCSE resits, or very shy learners—we can recommend 1:1 blocks.

We review grouping every half term to make sure your child is still in the right mix for pace and confidence.

Weeks 1–3: Diagnose & build routines

We benchmark reading, writing, and maths (or subject-specific for older students). Families get a short summary of what we found and a plan for the first month. We introduce the teach → guided → independent → recap cycle so learners know what to expect.

Weeks 4–7: Practice & adjust

We increase independent tasks, add short timed elements for older students, and adjust groupings if needed. Parents receive a mid-term note with quick wins (e.g., times tables targets, spelling focuses, key exam topics).

Weeks 8–10: Consolidate & assess

We revisit tricky topics, run a light assessment or mock paper, and share clear next steps. If exams are coming up, we set out a week-by-week plan so practice feels doable rather than overwhelming.

Ongoing: Communication

Parents can message us between sessions for clarification. We prefer short, actionable feedback instead of long reports—so you always know what to practise this week.
