Preparing my nephew for 11+ exams

Post by geek84 »

Hi Folks

My nephew who is 8 years old is quite bright academically. I am thinking of getting him to sit the 11 plus exam.

Is it possible that I can teach him the relevant topics by buying relevant text books and using resources which are available online? Or do you think I should get a private tutor to teach him?

Thanks in advance for your responses.

Plenty of parents (and the odd Aunt/Uncle I guess) do successfully DIY. I did myself.

With the right advice and information, if you feel capable of doing it and have the right sort of relationship then, yes, you can.
