FCL have personalised lesson plans for maths and English as per your child's requirements. I see positive improvements in both of my children’s writing skills and maths. I used to worry a lot about their learning but that has been taken away. Please send your children there if you want them to be confident in school and in everyday life.

Maths and English Tuition at Linlithgow Cross

At First Class Learning Linlithgow Cross, we provide high-quality maths and English tuition for children aged 4 to 16.

Our centre is run by experienced teachers Isla Wright and Roddy MacLennan, who are passionate about supporting children to achieve their full potential in a welcoming, supportive environment.

We help learners of all abilities—whether they need help catching up, want to build confidence, or are looking to extend their skills further. Every student follows a personalised programme tailored to their individual needs, aligned to Curriculum for Excellence outcomes and National Curriculum objectives, and designed to boost confidence, close knowledge gaps and encourage independent learning habits.

Whether your child is struggling with core concepts or looking to excel, we’re here to support them every step of the way. With structured daily homework, one-to-one guidance during sessions, and a focus on long-term understanding, we ensure that every child can succeed.

How we work

Step 1: Free Assessment Your journey starts with a free diagnostic assessment in maths and/or English. This allows us to understand your child’s current level, highlight areas of strength, and identify any topics they may need extra support with. Step 2: Personalised Programme Based on the assessment, we create a tailored learning plan that supports your child’s progress at the right pace. Our programmes are designed to reinforce school learning, build confidence, and develop strong core skills. Whether your child is in primary school, S1-S3 or studying for National 5 or Higher examinations, we ensure their programme is just right for them. Step 3: Weekly Centre Sessions Students attend the Linlithgow centre once or twice per week at a time that suits your family. Each session lasts around 30 minutes per subject. We introduce the week’s topics and guide your child through examples before they move on to independent work with support close at hand. Small groups and individual attention mean each learner gets the support they need. Step 4: Daily Homework After each session, your child receives a set of short daily homework tasks. This ‘little and often’ approach is proven to help embed learning and build confidence. Homework typically takes 10–20 minutes per subject, and we provide everything your child needs to succeed. Step 5: Regular Feedback and Progress Checks We believe communication with parents is key. That’s why we offer regular updates on your child’s progress and are always happy to discuss how they’re getting on. We also carry out progress checks throughout the year to ensure your child is on track and ready for the next step in their learning journey.

FAQ

What type of tuition do you offer?
At First Class Learning Linlithgow, we offer structured, personalised tuition in maths and English for children from primary age through to Higher level. Each child receives 1-to-1 attention during their centre sessions, where we introduce new concepts, work through examples together, and ensure they are confident before moving on to independent tasks. While we work in small groups, every child follows their own tailored programme designed to suit their unique needs and pace. Our supportive approach allows learners to build strong foundations, fill in knowledge gaps, and grow in confidence.
How will FCL help with my child’s school work?
By filling in any gaps they may have and developing their confidence we can change their attitude to a positive one and at the same time give them the skill sets needed to carry through to all school work.
Can I sit with my child while they do their work at the centre?
If your child is worried about coming into their first session, parents can come in to begin with but you won’t need to stay for long. Once they see the friendly faces and welcoming atmosphere, they are happy to stay on their own. We like to encourage independent and confident students.
Is there an hourly, weekly or monthly membership fee?
We operate a simple monthly membership model. This includes your child’s centre sessions, their personalised learning programme, and daily homework tasks. There is a one-off enrolment fee when your child joins, and the monthly cost will vary depending on how many subjects your child is studying (maths and/or English) and how many sessions they attend. Sibling and multi-subject discounts are available. For full details on pricing, just get in touch—we’ll be happy to talk you through the options.
