A Star Tuition Group is an exceptional tuition provider with over 17 years of experience in supporting and encouraging students through highly personalised and engaging tuition. The success of the students is a testament to the company's unique approach, recently recognised with the accolade of 'Best 11+ and GCSE Tuition Provider in Greater Manchester' - Northern Enterprise Awards (2024).A warm and welcoming atmosphere is fostered not only between students and tutors but also among colleagues, creating a strong, collaborative team. Led by Helen, a passionate and supportive leader, the team is made up of highly qualified and experienced professionals with many years of teaching experience. Her success is evident, with many students returning for tuition years after completing other programmes, such as the 11+ Exam Accelerator Programme, clearly demonstrating their trust in her expertise.From a tutor's point of view, it is a pleasure to work with Helen! I truly value how she bridges the gap between students, tutors and families, ensuring clear and consistent communication and support throughout the programme. She provides valuable background information on each student, such as their individual needs or circumstances, allowing me to tailor lessons specifically to their level. Her thoughtful approach not only supports students in areas where they need it most, but also creates a positive, engaging environment where students' successes are celebrated, boosting their confidence and fostering long-term progress.

Helen's Achievers+ Programme was a fantastic experience for our son. He genuinely looked forward to the weekly online lessons, which were thoughtfully planned and perfectly balanced between maths and English. It was clear how much care and effort Helen put into each session, from the preparation of engaging resources to her constructive feedback on classwork and homework. What stood out the most was Helen’s warm and encouraging approach. She created a supportive atmosphere that really helped our son build confidence, especially in areas of English that he had found challenging before. He also loved the group setting, which gave him the chance to connect with his peers and learn from their contributions. We’re grateful to Helen for helping our son make great progress. We’d highly recommend her and the Achievers+ Programme. Less

I cannot recommend Helen highly enough for her exceptional guidance in preparing Cornelia for the 11+ exam. Initially, Cornelia faced some challenges as she encountered material that wasn’t covered in her school curriculum, pushing her outside of her comfort zone for the first time. However, Helen’s supportive and structured approach helped Cornelia navigate these ups and downs. Throughout the learning program, Cornelia not only gained a deeper understanding of the subjects but also developed valuable time management skills, which proved crucial during the exam. The mock exams were particularly beneficial, allowing her to practice under realistic conditions and build her confidence. Overall, this tutoring experience has been transformative for Cornelia, equipping her with the tools she needed to excel. We are incredibly grateful for Helen’s dedication and expertise! Less

He grew in confidence over the weeks, and despite having no previous experience of Zoom, was soon a happy and active learner in a small class of children supported to increase their skills! Francis loved the little rewards from Helen, especially earning his stickers, and is now a self-confessed algebra expert. The tutoring sessions were really varied, and the homework set was very clear, making it easy for busy Mum and Dad to support between classes. Whatever the outcome of the 11+ examination, Francis will head into Y6 with a renewed love of learning and self-belief which will serve him well for SATs and beyond, and that’s A* to us. Thank you!

I highly recommend anyone who needs extra support with maths, at any age to get in contact with Helen and her team at A Star Tuition Group. As an adult learner I have been undertaking a functional skills level 2 maths course for a number of years; which is required for my current job role and career progression. In October last year I got in contact with Helen and started tuition twice a week with maths tutor Arun, I informed both Helen and Arun about my previous maths experiences and how I felt about maths in general for example, " I can not do maths" or "ever pass the exam". Within the first couple of weeks I started to gain a better understanding of solving maths problems and learnt how to complete questions fully. Arun broke down each question which made it easier for me to understand and explained all information in a clear detailed way. Throughout completing these maths sessions both Helen and Arun have kept up to date with my current progress and supported me with my maths skills and knowledge. I feel that now my maths knowledge and skills are the best they have ever been and can confidently say that I can actually do maths now. On Tuesday this week I was extremely happy to find out that I PASSED my maths exam, and I don't think I would have ever been able to pass this without Arun and Helen's help and support and attending the weekly sessions. Thanks again to you both and I will definitely recommend you both to other learners, family members and individuals. As you have helped me to achieve my maths goal. Less

We wanted her to feel confident and relaxed when it came to the real exam.She loved attending the online tuition sessions, was excited to join and always came away happy. We were really pleased with how Helen prepared her for the exam, covering areas she'd never been taught at school, sharing exam technique and the importance of time management. Our daughter also made some real connections with the other students, despite it being online and hopes to remain friends.The mock exam programme in early summer also helped our daughter understand what the day would be like and why it was important to keep the extra revision and practice up over summer.She recently sat the BRGS entrance exam, met the required standard and was offered a place for Y7. We are really proud of her, as she did find it stressful and challenging at times, but Helen's approach really helped to put her at ease. It was especially pleasing to see how relaxed our daughter was on the day of the exam, both before and after. Thank you!We will also be considering A Star Tuition for our younger daughter, so that she too has the same chance to be successful. Less

She also spends a considerable amount of time covering exam technique and preparing children for what to expect on the day, which my son found invaluable. Less

She really enjoys the lessons as Helen ensures that the learning is interactive and fun with the expectation that the pupils take responsibility for their learning and any follow up activity required at home. I have noticed a marked improvement in terms of my daughter’s ability in all areas and have been delighted with how the lessons have increased her self-confidence as she is naturally quite shy. Helen was quick to establish online lessons and tailor her ways of working to adapt to the current situation and in a period with very little formal teaching from school this has been fantastic. Helen pushes my daughter out of her comfort zone in a supportive and engaging environment. Would highly recommend! Less

My son has been attending AStar tuition for several months now. He has English and Maths tuition on separate nights. Both teachers are highly qualified and a credit to Helen at A Star tuition. His confidence is coming along lovely. He says that both teachers teach at a level that he understands and Mark ( maths tutor) explains things clearly. He has covered many areas now with Maths. With his English he is studying Macbeth, being a boy not the most exciting topic to have to do at GCSE however Kaye ( English tutor) is doing a fantastic job at keeping his interest and going through the characters and play superbly with him. They have both been a god send during this pandemic and school closure. Having them has helped not just James but myself as a parent, knowing he's not falling behind with these two important subjects. Both tutors keep me updated and are easy to contact if I have any concerns, likewise with Helen who is a pleasure to speak with on the phone. I Would recommend AStar tuition without a doubt, especially at these uncertain times! Less

I rang for help and advice in order to get my daughter a tutor for one to one lessons with English GCSE. Although i was given information about the service they offer, I was told I would recieve a phone call back on the same day with a price and further info, which i never recieved. I ended up trying another company and was successfull in securing a tutor, who spent some time chatting and explaining what my daughter would be taught and how this would be delivered. I recieved a free introduction lesson for my daughter, which was taken place and completed in the time it took for A Star Tuition to get back to me. When I explained I had found someone else i was told " I could have let them know!" There was no apology for the late response either. I'm sorry but it is not my job to chase them, especially when they could not stick to their plan of contacting me on the same day. Poor communication is not what I would expect from a company that I'm about to put my trust in with my daughters education. Less

The study sessions have boosted my daughter's confidence and enabled her to calmly walk into the 11+ exam without a single tear (something I had started to think might not have be possible). I have never felt prouder! Helen's advice to me during this process has be invaluable and I feel has prepared my daughter for the next step in her education. I would recommend Helen's sessions to everyone but as a parent of a sensitive child they have especially been valuable. Less

We have used Helens services now for many years spanning two of our children. In both cases I must highlight Helen has done a fantastic job.

We have used Helens services now for many years spanning two of our children. In both cases I must highlight Helen has done a fantastic job. She offers a great service to the children to boost not only their confidence but understanding of Maths and English. They seem very keen to attend and are very comfortable in learning within Helens home. After school tuition not only aids the child's development but I have found it completes the gaps in their skills. I would not hesitate in recommending Helen. She is a very professional teacher who is approachable and very easy to talk to. Her commitment to the children is excellent. Less
Helen was recommended to me for Lucas to have some extra English tuition and preparation for the Grammar School Entrance Exam. After the first session he came out buzzing saying that was exactly what he wanted. Helen was intuitive and made the sessions enjoyable. Lucas actually looked forward to going. I can’t thank her enough for all work with him.... More

My daughter Ava commenced tuition sessions with Helen in June this year in preparation for her forthcoming 11 plus exams. Ava enjoys these sessions and now feels much more positive about tackling her 11 plus. Helen's sessions are excellent, she explains everything really well and in a short period of time Ava has made excellent progress. I would highly recommend A Star Tuition Group.... More

I cannot recommend the services provided by A Star Tuition Group & Helen highly enough. My 2 children have been attending for almost 3 years.

I cannot recommend the services provided by A Star Tuition Group & Helen highly enough. My 2 children have been attending for almost 3 years. Initially it was my son who attended lessons with Helen as he had an IEP in place at school & I wanted him to receive extra support. He is an anxious child who finds new experiences very daunting & challenging - however he instantly felt at ease with Helen as she is so welcoming,friendly & patient. Her classroom is very modern, bright & airy - the perfect learning environment ! Helen also utilises modern teaching resources including an I Mac to help deliver her fun & engaging lessons. My son has made great progress in these last three years and has grown in confidence immensely. The classes Helen provides to prepare pupils for Grammar School Entrance Exams are excellent too. My daughter has just passed the exam for her local Grammar School & it’s all been down to the guidance, support & preparation that Helen provided. My daughter was fully prepared for the exam and was very calm & confident on the day as she used the tips & techniques that Helen had taught her effectively. Helen also updates me on a regular basis on the progress of my children & I feel she really knows them and what makes them tick. So if your looking for a tutor who is committed, approachable & genuinely passionate about what they do then please get in touch with Helen at A Star Tuition. Less
