FCL have personalised lesson plans for maths, English and
science 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.
Welcome to the Hereford South First Class Learning Centre where children can learn and develop in a safe and supportive environment. We enthusiastically support children in the local community with maths and English tuition.
Tutoring has been shown to assist students academic development, with small group tutoring adding up to 4 months additional progress. This progress can be linked to students receiving additional detailed one to one feedback reinforcing the learning already undertaken and supporting the next stages. The work is tailored to your child’s individual areas of development, and is varied and engaging to keep them enthusiastic about their own learning journey.
Through our structured programmes, we personalise each child’s learning path, which is targeted to fill any existing gaps in their understanding and promote development of existing knowledge. This helps with their schoolwork, builds confidence, and develops independent learning skills.
Our 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.
First Class Learning uses worksheets rather than electronic devices to help children develop their writing and functional movement skills. The critical development of these
skills ensure that writing becomes more fluid and natural with the additional development and practice that the program introduces.
The first step is to arrange a free assessment at the centre for your child. Once you have made contact, we will arrange a day to bring your child in for an assessment. The English and maths diagnostic tests take about 30 - 45 minutes for each subject. Following your child's assessment, we will let you know a little more about the FCL programme and how everything works .e.g. routines, costs, feedback etc. Using our initial tests and the trial weeks, we will establish the correct starting point for your child to support and encourage your child's learning, enabling them to gain confidence and fill in any gaps they may have. They will then be able to start attending weekly sessions at the centre of your choice; Hereford South, Hereford Belmont or Ledbury. Each tutor led session lasts 45 minutes each week, and you are free to attend at any point when the session is open. This allows you to timetable the session around your schedule. During each weekly session, they will revise any corrections or doubts from the previous week and get introduced to new concepts for the week ahead. They will be encouraged to attempt tasks independently, all the while having the support of their tutor on hand. Following the class session, students will complete their daily, but manageable 10 minute homework to continue practising the skills they have learnt in class. We include regular testing to ensure students are confident with the variety of learnt skills, giving child and parent updates throughout the year. Additionally, we always try to give personal feedback to the family after each session to keep you updated on your child’s progress.
