Effective 11+ Preparation for Children
Hatch End Tuition is an established and successful tutoring centre. We offer a warm and friendly environment where children are encouraged and motivated to achieve their maximum potential whatever their ability.
Our aim is to build children’s confidence and help them achieve high standards of work in an engaging and challenging environment.
11+ Tuition
We provide courses to fully prepare children for the 11+ and Independent School Examinations. We have successfully prepared hundreds of children to enter schools of their choice.
The lessons are carefully constructed to fully meet the requirements for the exams. We cover Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning, Maths, Mental Arithmetic, Creative Writing, Grammar and Comprehension. The small class sizes mean the students’ progress is closely monitored and an open dialogue between teacher, parent and pupil gives each student the best chance for achieving their potential.
Our impressive track record reflects Chris Holliday’s 25 years of teaching and tuition experience.

About Christine Holliday & Hatch End 11+ Tuition
I have been teaching children for 25 years. During that time I have taught as a class teacher in Primary Schools, taught Mathematics in Secondary Schools and also been Head of Mathematics in a school for children with Learning Difficulties.
I first started tutoring children for the 11+ examinations when my eldest daughter Katie was nine years old. I began by tutoring her and her friends for their 11+ examinations. The following year I tutored my second daughter Elena and all of her friends. From then on I continued tutoring friends’ and neighbours’ children. After tutoring my son James and his friends in 1996 I had so much demand for tuition for both 11+ and GCSE Maths that I decided to stop full-time teaching and concentrate solely on tutoring.
I believe that all children can benefit from tuition. I firmly believe that encouragement and motivation is the key to learning. I like to feel that all children that are taught in my tuition groups are happy to be here and happy to learn.
Hundreds of children taught by Hatch End Tuition have achieved their goal of passing exams and getting into the school of their choice. Even though the majority of our courses lead towards passing 11+exams, many parents send their children to Hatch End 11+Tuition solely to build up their children’s confidence in a particular subject. There are a number of parents who are very happy to send their children to the local Secondary School and bring their children to Hatch End 11+ Tuition to ensure their children are reaching their full potential.
All the teaching staff working at Hatch End 11+ Tuition have been CRB checked.
