About Leo

I am a third-year Medical student at the University of Manchester, and I have always had a strong interest in teaching, academic development, and helping students succeed in competitive exams.

I personally sat the 11+ entrance exam and achieved a score in the 95th percentile, gaining a place at Bournemouth Grammar School. Having gone through the exam process myself, I have first-hand understanding of what it takes to succeed — not just in terms of knowledge, but also in exam technique, speed, accuracy, and confidence under pressure.

Following this, I went on to achieve strong academic results at every stage of my education, including high GCSE grades and A*A*A at A-Level, before securing a place at medical school. This academic journey has given me a clear understanding of progression through selective education and the expectations placed on high-achieving students.

I am particularly aware that the 11+ is not just about what a child knows, but how they think under timed conditions. Many students struggle not because of ability, but because they are unfamiliar with the style of reasoning, question formats, and pressure involved in the exam. My aim is to bridge that gap.

Alongside my studies, I have several years of tutoring experience, working with students of different ages and abilities. I enjoy breaking down complex ideas into simple, structured steps and building confidence gradually. I also have experience supporting students who may lack confidence, struggle with focus, or find traditional classroom environments overwhelming.

Above all, I genuinely enjoy teaching and find it very rewarding to see students improve, gain confidence, and begin to believe in their own ability.

About the lesson

  • All Levels
  • English

All languages in which the lesson is available :

English

My lessons are specifically designed around the 11+ entrance exam, including preparation for grammar school and independent school entry.

The 11+ requires a combination of skills that are not always taught in school, including:

Verbal Reasoning
Non-Verbal Reasoning
English comprehension and grammar
Mathematical reasoning and problem-solving
Speed, accuracy, and exam technique under timed conditions

My teaching approach focuses on developing these skills in a structured and supportive way. Rather than simply going through questions, I help students understand how to think like the exam, so they are able to approach unfamiliar problems with confidence.

Each lesson is fully tailored to the student’s ability level and target school. For some students, this may mean focusing on core content and building foundations. For others, it may involve more advanced exam practice, timed papers, and refining exam technique.

Lessons are interactive and engaging, with a strong emphasis on guided problem-solving. I avoid long lectures and instead work through questions step-by-step with the student, encouraging them to explain their thinking and develop independent reasoning skills. This approach helps build both confidence and long-term understanding.

A key focus of my tutoring is exam readiness. This includes:

Time management strategies for pressured conditions
Techniques for tackling unfamiliar or complex questions
Improving accuracy while working at speed
Building confidence with mixed-difficulty papers
Regular exposure to exam-style questions

I also provide ongoing support between lessons where needed. Students can ask questions outside of sessions, and I am happy to provide feedback on additional work or practice questions. Where useful.

Lessons are typically 50 minutes and delivered online via webcam, making them flexible and accessible. The structure and pace of lessons are always adapted depending on the student’s goals, current level, and exam timeline.

My overall aim is not just to improve performance in the 11+ exam, but to build a strong foundation of confidence, reasoning ability, and exam technique that will support students throughout their future academic journey.
