Leeds Tuition Centre Reviews 18

We were looking for a tutor familiar with the gsal test and process when miss Joanna was recommended to us by another mum. We didn't have very much time until the entrance test so miss Joanna assessed both my girls and found their potential weak spots and prioritised them for the time we had left to prep. She offered the year 6 two sessions a week for English and offered the year 3 one session a week for maths. Both kids always came out of the sessions feeling positive. This week we just found out they both passed the entrance test and have been offered places. Thank you miss Joanna and to the team for your support on that final push.

My daughter has been attending Leeds Tuition Centre for the past two years in preparation for her GCSE examinations.
Joanna and her team are excellent tutors and provide top-class academic support. They believe in my daughter’s ability and push her to reach her full potential. She has just completed her Year 11 MOCKS and achieved higher than her predicted grades in both English and Maths, something we are grateful to LTC for helping her to accomplish.
I have given Leeds tuition Centre 5 stars, not only for their tutoring services but also for Joanna’s flexibility and understanding when it comes to rescheduling those “missed” sessions and for the excellent communication and detailed feedback I receive at the end of every session. Thank you so much.

Joanna and her team at the Leeds Tuition Centre have been incredibly professional in supporting my daughter towards her final mathematics exams , the quality of learning is excellent. The level of communication and organisation is exceptional.
My daughter was struggling with maths and anxious before we started at the Tuition Centre, she is now far more confident and now entered for the higher paper !!

I enrolled my daughter for Maths tuition quite late in the day (after Easter) as her mock GCSE was grading a predicted 3 - she needed to get a 4 or above in order to get on her chosen college course. Joanna did an initial assessment of her ability and it matched school’s predictions……my daughter attended for 2 sessions per week up until her exams and she has just got her GCSE Maths result today and she has got a grade 4 ! She’s delighted and I have to say it is all down to to tuition provided from Joanna and Lesley - they not only provided a huge boost to my daughter’s confidence but managed to drill down to where the gaps in knowledge were and focused on these. They provided feedback after each session and additional homework for her to complete……I can wholeheartedly recommend Joanna and her team and am so pleased for my daughter….again many many thanks 🤩

My children started attending Leeds Tuition Centre since year 7.
Leeds Tuition Centre really assisted them in their Maths lessons and especially in their GCSE results.

My son got there with a predicted 5 on Maths and a 6-5 on triple science. Thanks to Leeds Tuition Centre he got today a 7 on Maths and a 7-6 on triple science. Joanna knows what she does and she is the best at it. Thank you LTC!

I would recommend Leeds Tuition Centre to anyone that is looking for tuition for their child. Friendly and supportive environment for your child to feel at ease.

After each session we were updated on how my daughter was doing with aims and goals.

Ifeanyi did so well in SATs.

My daughter's maths grades have improved since she began her tution classes.
The communication with the centre is very efficient.
They give prompt and constructive feedback on each session attended.
They try their best to compensate for each session missed for unforseen circumstances.

My son started maths tuition lessons just at the beginning of year 10 and he moved by the end of the half term from set 2 to set 1, boosting his confidence and knowledge. So far a positive outcome and overall good experience.

Excellent experience with my son who enjoys the 1 hour he spends there a week. Friendly and supportive tutors.

It was extremely useful, Joanna has really helped my daughter achieve to her potential especially in English. We have tried several different tutoring places but none have been as good as this especially how she has improved in English. Lesley has also really helped my daughter really improve in her maths to not make silly mistakes. My daughter has gone to this tutoring since year9 (she’s finished year 11), Joanna and Lesley have helped her get the chance of receiving her predicted grades. Thank you so much for teaching my daughter.

I can’t thank Joanna and Lesley enough. The help and support they have provided for my daughter has been absolutely fantastic. My daughter was struggling with maths. The difference made in 5 months is actually staggering. I have seen a total change in my daughter’s attitude, progression and confidence, the best thing I ever did was to walk in to the tuition centre and ask for help. You are all amazing, thank you again from the bottom of my heart. We will be in touch in August to let you know the results. X

My son has been attending Leeds Tuition for over 4 years now. He attends the center twice per week. He is autistic and the staff have been meeting his needs very well. He has made great progress in maths and English which the school has noticed. I am very grateful to all the staff at Leeds tuition for the support they give my son.

My son joined the lesson few weeks to his 11+ exam.Firsly,Joan was able to do the initial assesment which was great in identifying his strength and areas of improvement.

This really helps him to improve where needed and has now gained entry into top two independent schools in the region.

Leeds tuition Center is one of the best tutoring Centers around, staffed by highly qualified teachers.

Our son Joshua started attending the Center 5 year ago and during this period, we have seen so much improvement in his learning. He has been getting plenty of praises from his school as well as the tuition Center. He has developed a lot of confidence in his ability in both mathematics and English.

Recently he did entrance assessment for year 7 for Bradford grammar school, The Grammar School at Leeds and Gateways school, in which he did exceptionally well and has been offered a place in all of them.

Many many thanks to Joanna and her team. We are very appreciative of the effort and hard work you have put into bringing the best in Joshua. Without Leeds tuition Center he wouldn't have been this confident in his ability.
Thank you. Irene

My venture into Leeds Tuition Centre for my daughter's academic evaluation was not only disappointing but also raised serious concerns about their educational ethos and student evaluation practices.

During the assessment, which included a variety of Maths and English tests, it became apparent that the Centre's approach to student capability and progression is deeply flawed. The feedback, particularly from the director Joanna, was not just discouraging but shockingly dismissive of realistic educational standards.

Joanna asserted that my daughter would be unlikely to succeed in the Heckmondwike Grammar School entrance exam, claiming that the school insists on students being two years ahead academically. This assertion led to my daughter, a Year 4 student, being tested against Year 6 benchmarks—an expectation that is not only absurd but also directly contradicts the guidelines provided by Heckmondwike Grammar School itself. Leeds Tuition Centre's insistence on such an unrealistic academic leap does not align with the school's own preparatory advice and sets an impractical and daunting standard for students.

The proposed remedy by Joanna – a rigorous tutoring regime – was conveyed in a manner that was both aloof and condescending. Implying that even after extensive tutoring a student may barely be prepared to 'attempt' the exam is not only demoralizing but also strips away the confidence and enthusiasm from young learners.

What was particularly distressing was witnessing the impact of this interaction on my daughter, who was visibly upset and disheartened by the bleak and unforgiving assessment of her abilities by someone who should be an encouraging and supportive figure in her educational journey. The foundational years of education should be about fostering a love for learning, self-belief, and intellectual curiosity, not about overwhelming students with unrealistic expectations.

The notion that a student should be two years ahead in their studies is not only baseless but also imposes an undue burden on young minds. It is crucial for educational centres to provide guidance that is in harmony with realistic academic benchmarks and the preparatory guidelines recommended by educational institutions.

In summary, while Leeds Tuition Centre may provide structured academic evaluations, the methods of feedback and the setting of unattainable academic targets are both troubling and indicative of a misguided approach to education. I implore Leeds Tuition Centre to re-evaluate their assessment techniques and feedback methodologies to ensure they are cultivating an environment that promotes not only academic prowess but also the psychological well-being and self-esteem of their students.

To other parents – I advise approaching Leeds Tuition Centre with caution. The journey towards academic achievement should be stimulating, achievable, and above all, nurturing and affirmative.
