nEWS
Easter Holiday fun! Creative writing workshops for 9-11 years olds in East London and Greenwich. Your child can choose their favourite theme from Pirates to Enchanted Castles or Ancient Geeks and release their unique imaginations.
These workshops are designed for both passionate and reluctant writers. We celebrate developing their talent.
7+ 9+ 10+ 11+ exams
Selective school places are more sought after than ever before. Thousands of children compete for limited places every year. English skills are assessed with a view to predicting the child’s likely attainment in the GCSEs. It’s tough.
We make this experience calm, efficient and goal focused. We expertly motivate and guide the children to achieve their offers.
GCSE, A-Level, IB
Access to Russell Group universities is dependent on a minimum level 6 in GCSE English, whatever the course of study chosen. Our experienced tutors coach examination technique for top scores in GCSE English papers.
At A Level and IB we assist, not only with the English courses, but also writing skills for all essay subjects.
Interview practice
Once your child has passed their selective school exams, they will have to attend an interview. All children are at their best when they feel relaxed and they can express their thoughts and opinions with confidence and intelligence.
We are highly skilled in the interview process. With in-depth knowledge of the question types and expectations, we guide your child to ensure they shine.
creative writing workshops
Creative writing should feel as natural as dreaming. However, for many children it can be a chore.
Emma, Associate at JWT, and Jacqueline, have developed a completely different approach for our writing workshops, designed to liberate children from the paralysing structure of beginning, middle and end and send their imaginations soaring.
IELTS
Emma Hawkey, Associate at JWT, heads up our IELTS tutoring programme. The lessons are engaging and personalised and tailored to your needs.
Her customised learning plans will support your application to elite UK universities, or help improve fluency and communication for work or study.
