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 South Harrow

Welcome to the South Harrow First Class Learning Study Centre run by Centre Manager Sheenal Patel who is fully trained to deliver the First Class Learning Study programmes. Every First Class Learning Centre Manager holds an enhanced DBS certificate.

Students of all ages attend the centre for around 30 minutes per subject. In these classes they will hand in their previous week of work and complete that day's worksheets which will be marked, returned and discussed with the tutor. They are then set a programme of work of around 10-15 minutes per day to do at home, practising what they have learnt in the class to ensure mastery and fluency at each step.

Through our structured programmes, Sheenal individualises each child’s learning path, which is targeted to fill any existing gaps in their understanding. This therefore helps with their school work, builds confidence and develops independent learning skills, something that is extremely important in today's busy classrooms in schools.

Our English and Maths programmes are flexible and tailored to learners' individual needs and abilities so students move on only when they are confident with a topic. Regular testing ensures that the best possible progress is made. The 'little and often' approach, with plenty of repetition and practice, really does make a huge difference.

How we work

Our First Class Learning Centre Manager will call you to discuss how we can help your child with maths and English. They will then assist your child to complete an assessment to determine which path is most suitable for them. Once we have established your child's needs, we will put together a bespoke course of action that will support and encourage your child's learning. If you feel happy with our plan and that we are the best option for you and your child, they will then be able to start attending regular classes at the centre. In these classes they will complete a short piece of work which will be marked, returned, and discussed with the Centre Manager, who will give them a detailed programme of homework to be completed before the next class.

Centre Manager

Welcome! I'm Sheenal Patel, a dedicated and experienced tutor specialising in raising student grades in both maths and English. With 9 GCSEs, 3 A levels, and a BA (Hons) in LLB (Law) from Bradford University, I bring a wealth of knowledge and a hands-on approach to education. Currently, I serve as the Centre Manager and Tutor at First Class Learning South Harrow, where I provide tailored tutoring for students aged 4-16, including 11+ and GCSE preparation. My strong grasp of the UK National Curriculum allows me to adapt teaching resources to suit different learning styles, ensuring each student achieves their target grades. My professional journey includes a significant tenure as a Store Manager and Dispensing Optician, where I honed my skills in customer service, problem resolution, and business management. Additionally, I have experience as a Conveyancing Paralegal, where I developed my attention to detail and ability to handle complex information. I am passionate about education and committed to helping students excel. My approach is patient, approachable, and tailored to each student's unique needs. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy traveling, learning about different cultures, and spending time with my family. Join our FCL community, and let's achieve academic success together!

FAQ

How does FCL differ to 1:1 tutoring?
FCL offers structure and daily practice with a ‘little and often’ approach, enabling the child to retain what they have learnt and gain confidence. It also develops a good study habit and independent learning rather than becoming dependent upon others teaching them.
How will FCL help with my child’s school work?
By bridging gaps and developing confidence, a child’s attitude can become more positive, whilst at the same time our programmes provide them with the skills sets required to transfer through to their school studies.
Can I sit with my child while they do their work at the centre?
If a child is worried about coming along to their first session, we will work with parents to settle them in. However, you will not need to stay for long as once a child has experienced the friendly and welcoming atmosphere, they are happy to stay on their own. We aim to encourage independent and confident students.
If I join, am I tied into FCL for a set amount of time?
No, not at all. FCL is primarily a long-term programme, not a ‘quick fix’. However, there are many reasons why you may need to discontinue, so I ask for just 1 month’s notice.
