Can any one please tell me name deleted by moderator is a good 11 plus tutor. I am looking for a tutor for my son who are in year 4 now. Please advice by pm if there is any tutor who can help him for Tiffin boys.

Thank you

We try to keep the forum as safe as possible - we don't allow tutors to be openly recommended, because it attracts posts with fake recommendations ('dodgy' advertising solely designed to solicit business on the internet).
It is also not unknown for unscrupulous competitors to 'plant' posts seeking to denigrate the opposition!

Genuine recommendations from forum members by PM only (private message) are permitted - but be aware of the possibility that someone who appears to be a 'helpful parent' offering advice may not be all they seem! There could be an ulterior motive.

Always treat recommendations from unknown persons with great caution.
However, we have many long standing members (check carefully the date of joining and number of posts) who make a very valuable contribution to the forum. If you receive a private recommendation from one of them, it could be worth considering.

Please let us know if you think anyone is abusing the system by soliciting for business or 'spamming'.
It's easy to report a possible problem - just click on the red exclamation mark that appears with every post and PM: Image

I think year 4 is too early for tutoring. There is good advise here.

Could not agree more, tutors can only do so much.

Get them used to doing some of the papers you can buy from shops (Bond etc) at home. Asses the weakness yourself and work on supporting them.

The Sutton GS and Tiffin boys (from 2016) will test on what is taught in primary school on Y4/5 and some parts of Y6.
This is what the URL posted by Tiffinboys, suggests you do anyway.

Agree, Year 4 tutoring too early...any primary teacher will be able to address any gaps in your child's knowledge at this stage. It might be worth asking directly & confidentially a primary school teacher as they often have connections.

MGM, I have replied to your pm.

No, we are neither looking for 11+ tutor, nor we live in Croydon.
