Academic Tuition 

At Kev's Class, we believe that confidence is the foundation for all learning. We understand that children today often struggle with self-belief when it comes to their education, and this can hold them back from reaching their full potential. That’s why our approach is designed to build confidence first, helping students feel capable, supported, and ready to take on new challenges.

Through interactive and tailored sessions, we create an environment where children can thrive. By focusing on boosting self-esteem and celebrating progress, we ensure that learning becomes a positive and enjoyable experience for every child.

English

English can be a challenging subject for many students, with complex rules and exceptions that can be difficult to grasp. At Kev's Class, we take the fear out of learning English by making it engaging, confidence-boosting. Our tutors work closely with students to develop essential literacy skills such as spelling, punctuation, grammar, reading comprehension, and creative writing, while helping them feel more assured in their abilities.

English Tutors 

Our expert English tutors use unique learning materials aligned with the Scottish Curriculum to support and extend students’ literacy development. These resources not only support academic development but also encourage students to stretch beyond what they learn at school.

By blending computer-based and paper-based activities, we create sessions that are both interactive and empowering.

We also offer specialised tutoring for National 5 and Higher English levels, ensuring that older students receive tailored support as they prepare for exams with confidence.

Small Group and Private English Lessons 

Our English sessions are designed to nurture a love of reading and writing while reinforcing core literacy skills. For primary school students, we focus on building strong foundational skills while encouraging wider reading to enhance vocabulary and comprehension. Creative writing prompts are often included to spark imagination and make writing enjoyable. These activities not only improve technical skills but also give students the confidence to express themselves freely.

Maths

Maths is a subject that many children find intimidating, but at Kev's Class, we believe every child can succeed when they feel confident in their abilities. Our tutors focus on creating a supportive environment where students can tackle maths challenges without fear or frustration. By celebrating small wins and encouraging steady progress, we help children build resilience and a positive attitude toward numbers.

Maths Tutors 

Using teaching resources developed by our team of maths specialists, our tuition is fully aligned with the Scottish Curriculum. We use a multi-sensory approach that makes maths relatable and engaging for students. This includes verbal explanations, visual aids like number lines and flashcards, and hands-on tools such as clocks and counters to reinforce understanding in a practical way.

Maths Resources 

The teaching resources we use are fun and interactive and students are given homework through our online learning platform, should they want it. The work gets marked and feedback is given in the next lesson to ensure that the topic taught is consolidated.

Some key primary topics include; the four operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division), algebra, angles, shape, space and measure.

We also offer National 5 and Higher Maths tutoring with our High School Specialist Tutors! 

Small Group and Private Maths Tuition 

Many children struggle with maths because they lack confidence in their abilities rather than because they lack potential. Our friendly tutors focus on building this confidence by revisiting foundational concepts as often as necessary until the student feels secure in their understanding.

Whether in small groups or private sessions, our learners thrive in an environment that supports their individual needs whilst encouraging collaboration with peers.
