How tutoring works in Westminster
A free consultation
You tell us about your child and which school or exam you have in mind. We explain which Nova programme fits. Within 24 hours we send a written recommendation.
Three sessions in your home in Westminster
The first three sessions of every programme are taught in person, so your child and your family get to know the tutor, and the tutor gets to know them.
Then online, with a report after every session
All later sessions are online. You receive a Session Note after every session, so you know what was covered and what comes next.
Sessions are 60 minutes, one-to-one or in a group of two or three. In a group, one home is nominated as the teaching venue for the three in-person sessions. Every tutor is a qualified teacher with a current Enhanced DBS check.
