Assessment
A core part of our method is the free assessment we arrange for the student before they register at PotExcel.
​
Following an initial discussion with the student regarding their exact private tuition requirements and how one of our tutors can support the student to excel in their academics, the student takes an assessment, which is tailored specifically to their current academic level, topics covered in class thus far and their examination board.
​
​
PRIVATE TUITION
​
The results from this assessment will complement the student's test scores from school tests along with his/her comments on which subject areas they would like most tutor assistance in. With this information, we will be able to understand the student's current academic level in each subject they will be receiving tuition for. Accordingly, a tuition plan specific for the student will be made as detailed in our Method: How It Works.
​
​
GROUP TUITION
​
Similar to Private Tuition, in addition to supporting the student's tutor and the student in formulating a specific tuition plan for the student, the test scores obtained will also be used to determine which group the student should be placed in for Group Tuition. If a student decides they would like to undertake Group Tuition sessions, our tutors carefully assess whether there is an existing group appropriate for the student in terms of consisting of students who are studying a similar subject and examination board, are at a similar academic level to the student in question and finally if the students are all have similarly focussed tuition plans.
​
Please note, in cases where there is not a group appropriate for a student, they are more than welcome to form a group of a very small number of students with similar tuition requirements.
​
Our groups consist of a very limited number of students to ensure each student receives high attention from the tutor, whilst benefitting from sharing of knowledge with like-minded peers.
