We are extremely pleased with the progress our son has made since starting private tutoring with Freddie. In just three months of preparation for his GCSEs, our son has improved his Maths and 3 Science grades from a 5–6 to an 8–9 in his recent mock exams, which is an outstanding achievement.
Our son successfully passed The Perse Secondary School entrance examination, and we are extremely grateful to Cambridge Tutoring Academy for the support he received throughout the process.
The results speak for themselves. My grades improved dramatically, and teachers started commenting on how much clearer my work and explanations had become. Confidence up, mistakes down, and real understanding finally in place. This tutoring didn’t just help it transformed my performance.
We've helped OVER 100 students in the LAST YEAR achieve their potential.

When should my child start preparing for
The Perse 13+ exam?
Preparation for the Perse 13+ entrance exam should ideally begin 12–18 months before the assessment, typically during Year 7 or early Year 8. Starting early allows students to strengthen core maths skills, develop advanced problem-solving ability, and build exam confidence gradually rather than relying on last-minute revision. The Perse 13+ exam is academically competitive, so structured preparation, timed practice, and mock exam experience can make a significant difference. We recommend an early assessment to determine the right preparation timeline based on your child’s current level and goals.
Are student tutors actually effective?
When carefully selected and properly trained, student tutors can be highly effective. We match each student with a tutor who has specific subject expertise and a strong academic track record in the relevant entrance exams. Having sat these assessments themselves relatively recently, our tutors understand the pressure, format and expectations firsthand. This allows them to explain concepts clearly, share practical exam strategies, and build a genuine connection with students. They are also up to date with the latest exam specifications and assessment styles, ensuring preparation is both relevant and focused.
What qualifications do tutors have?
Our tutors are high-achieving students or graduates from leading universities, with strong academic records and subject expertise. All tutors are DBS-checked, trained, and supported to ensure lessons are structured, engaging and effective.
Do you provide homework, feedback and progress updates?
Yes. Students receive targeted homework after each session, along with clear feedback on strengths and areas for improvement. Parents are kept informed with regular progress updates so you can track development with confidence.
When should my child start preparing for
The Perse 11+ exam?
For the 11+, we recommend starting preparation around 12 months in advance. This ensures core skills are secure, exam techniques are introduced steadily, and your child feels calm and well-prepared by the time assessments begin.
Do we offer preparation targeted at
The Perse Entrance Exam?
Absolutely. Our preparation is tailored specifically to The Perse’s assessment style and standards. We focus on the subjects tested, question formats used, and the level of depth expected, ensuring your child is fully familiar with what to expect.
Why are our prices lower than typical private tutors?
Preparation for the Perse 13+ entrance exam should ideally begin 12–18 months before the assessment, typically during Year 7 or early Year 8.

The Perse 13+ exam is academically competitive, so structured preparation, timed practice, and mock exam experience can make a significant difference.
