Mindfulness-based tuition
Are you?
- Looking for an outstanding Maths tutor who makes it fun?
- Searching for an English tutor who brings texts to life?
- Fed up with the homework battles?
- Tired of the “I don’t knows”?
- Struggling with how to help prepare for important exams or big transitions?
Do you?
- Feel guilty for not having enough time to work with your child on their academics?
- Know your child could use some academic support but you know your teacher-student dynamic just doesn't work?
If you’ve answered yes to any of the above, then don’t worry. It’s so common and you’re absolutely not alone!
The truth is that children respond better to leadership when it comes from others - not you, the parent! After all, this is the main reason why we as tutors have a job!
So, if you're tired of the moaning and groaning that greets you each time you try and encourage your child to sit and study for their exams, or to get on with their homework, then you're in luck! Our mindfulness-based tuition programme will not only help your child to develop more academic rigor, they’ll also learn new skills around easing performance anxiety, improving time management and study habits, as well as developing the ability to take ownership over their own actions.
A PERSONALISED TUITION PROGRAMME THAT IS AS UNIQUE AS YOUR CHILD
No two children are the same, so no tuition programme should be the same either! This is why we create a personalised tuition plan that is completely bespoke for your child.

Testimonials
I’m so glad that Z opened up and spoke to you! You very quickly leaped over the first hurdle! As you’ve probably guessed, he is quite negative and not very expressive. When he came out of his session with you and said it was “ok” that was massive! “Ok” to him is the same as “fantastic” to another child!
She is loving Comprehension Club – especially this term’s focus on Poetry. Thank you so much! She has sent her poems to her Nanny to read as she also writes poetry!
She came out of the session this evening and showed me what she had done. She said she really liked algebra so that’s a pretty good result I think!
Hi Sarahlynn, I would like to say that we are very happy that E got a scholarship and Northampton High School and would like to say a big thank you for teaching and encouraging her on obtaining her goal. She is very happy! Thank you so much.
Hi Sarahlynn, just to update you, * has been invited to interviews at Winchester and Charterhouse and we’ve just found out today that Eton have invited him too! We are over the moon. Thanks again for all of your help and support.
We are really pleased with how much the boys are enjoying the time with you. Thank you for your kindness and knowledge in helping them! It’s really wonderful to see how they are enjoying and being more confident with maths and also themselves!
Thank you for creating the Comprehension Club. My daughter really loves seeing all of her ‘club friends’ every week and I can hear her confidence really building as she explores these comprehension questions with you. It’s been a real weight off.
Just wanted to let you know that * has really been enjoying his recent English lessons with you. We haven’t been experiencing any of the usual difficulties with him which is a really good sign. He has a more positive attitude towards his learning which is great to see! Thank you so much for the wonderful ways you find to keep both of the boys motivated.
We just wanted to share that S has been awarded “most improved in English” award this year and we could not be more pleased! His work with you has boosted his confidence and dare I say, he enjoys English now!

How we make everything "easy peasy, lemon squeezy"!
When you work with us as a parent, we’ll guide you through our simple four-step process to creating a bespoke support journey for your child - one that will banish the homework struggle and instill a new love of learning.
1.
It all begins with a quick five-minute questionnaire. We know you’re busy, so we promise this won’t take long!
2.
We’ll then arrange to have a complimentary 30-minute conversation, where you’ll be able to share your current goals for your child’s tuition programme and let me know in what areas you think that they need to improve upon. I’ll also find out more about your child’s learning style and interests, to ensure that this is considered during our time together.
Furthermore, we’ll also discuss the results from the questionnaire and provide you with some quick but effective tools to help support your child; meaning that you can come away from your free call already armed with some action steps to support your child right from the get go!
3.
Now that we’ve delved a little deeper, the Bettering Youth team will get to work on creating a unique programme that will help your child improve their grades, grow in confidence, and build resiliency.
4.
Let’s start the journey! Once we’re all set and you’re happy with our programme outline, your child will embark on their first session with the Bettering Youth team, and their journey to better grades, improved confidence and resilience will begin!
