First Class Learning Centre for maths and English Tuition in Chalfont St Peter
Who we are:
First Class Learning (FCL) is a leading after-school maths and English programme aimed at the National Curriculum. It has been developed by a British team of educationalists specifically to support the National Curriculum in England, Wales and Northern Ireland (and the Scottish equivalent) and is endorsed by the Dyspraxia Foundation.
Leading up to starting at FCL, Sangita ran a popular maths and English after-school centre of 140 students for 7 years. For the last six months she has established a new centre in North-West London using the FCL programme and is now also opening in Chalfont St Peter.
First Class Learning aims to build confidence in children and develop their independent learning ability. Students of all ages attend the centre from Early Years all the way through to children studying GCSEs. Children of all abilities thrive in the First Class Learning centre as our programmes are individualised to their specific needs. Each student progresses a step at a time, moving on only after they have understood and are confident in each topic.
First Class Learning is a long term programme and runs throughout the year. Students generally stay with us for a number of years. At First Class Learning, we support your child's learning with the aim of raising self esteem and confidence, thus making their school studies easier. Maths and English can be studied as individual subjects or studied together.
How does it work?
Using a combination of carefully structured worksheets, workbooks and textbooks, the First Class Learning programme will take your child from the basics of maths and/or English through to the more demanding aspects of school work.
Before you decide to enrol your child with First Class Learning, she/he will be assessed by the Centre Manager. (There is no charge for this and no commitment at that stage). The assessment will help to determine his/her specific needs and ensure a suitable starting point in the course if you subsequently decide to join.
What happens in class?
The classes are held on Wednesdays as drop-in sessions. Students are typically in class for 20 minutes per subject. Students are provided with a task to complete which is then marked and any errors corrected. Students receive guidance whenever necessary, but independent learning is encouraged.
Home Study
At each visit to the Centre, your child will be given a detailed programme of home study which reinforces and consolidates their class work. The work needs to be completed on a daily basis by each student and you will be required to mark the work (handbooks will be provided!). This ensures that you will always be fully aware of the work your child is doing and the progress being made. This homework then needs to be returned at each class session where feedback will be provided.
