The Importance of Going Beyond Tuition for 11 Plus Success
As you are a month into preparing your child for the 11 Plus exam, I want to share some insights on why tuition alone may not suffice to ensure success. Today, I will be hosting a webinar at 7pm to discuss this topic in detail. I will also share links that will help you do this in real-time.
Why Tuition Isn’t Enough
While tuition provides a solid foundation by covering the core subjects and skills tested in the 11 Plus, it often focuses on a general curriculum that may not address individual weaknesses or foster the depth of understanding needed to excel. It’s essential to supplement tuition with additional strategies to give your child the best chance of success.
The Role of Extra Work
Consistent practice is crucial in the journey towards passing the 11 Plus. Here are some reasons why extra practice can make the difference.
- Tailored Learning: Extra practice allows for customised study plans that target your child’s specific areas of improvement.
- Confidence Building: Familiarity with the exam format and types of questions can significantly boost a child’s confidence.
- Skill Enhancement: Regular practice helps refine problem-solving skills and time management, both critical for the exam.
Recommended Resources
To support your child beyond tuition, consider utilising the following resources:
- Workbooks and Practice Papers: These provide targeted exercises in verbal reasoning, non-verbal reasoning, mathematics, and English.
- Online Platforms: Websites like Bond Online, BOFA and Atom Learning offer interactive exercises and mock tests.
- Study Groups: Encouraging your child to join study groups can foster peer learning and motivation.
- Educational Apps: Apps like Quizlet can make learning more engaging and accessible.
I’ll be covering more about these resources and how to effectively integrate them into your child’s study routine in today’s webinar.
By going beyond traditional tuition and incorporating these strategies, you can help ensure that your child is thoroughly prepared and confident when they sit for the exam.
I look forward to seeing you in the webinar, where we will explore these topics in greater depth and answer any questions you may have.
