“Our son has been attending Magical Minds Tuition since the beginning of November 2024. We couldn’t be happier with how he’s settled in. Jess & Charlotte make the sessions fun and engaging and he always comes out with a smile on his face and wants to tell us all he’s learned.
Our daughter attended a different eleven plus provider which was more computer based and didn’t have qualified teachers running the classes, we can now see the difference in quality of teaching Magical Minds Tuition offer. Having experienced teachers (Jess & Charlotte) leading the classes makes a real difference.
The book club has also given our son the incentive to read more regularly.
We are very happy with Magical Minds Tuition and would have no hesitation in recommending them to our friends and family.”

Year 4 Classes
'“My son has been doing Year 4 tuition with a small group on Saturday mornings and is really enjoying the lessons. He loves the chance to get more 1:1 attention from the teachers and how interactive and varied the classes are. The homework is well planned and allocated and he’s managing to complete it all before the next week without any issue. I’m really glad we signed him up!”

Charlotte is a wonderful tutor
“Charlotte has been tutoring my triplets for the past year for the 11+ exams. She has been committed, punctual and has tutored in a creative way matching each child’s individual needs and preferred style of learning. The children have enjoyed seeing Charlotte even after a busy school day. Her advice and guidance to me as a parent has been invaluable and I would definitely recommend Charlotte to tutor your child.”
