Why Parents come to Keystone for IGCSE Tuition
There is not a one size fits all approach to our IGCSE tutoring. What works for some children might not work for others, so our tutoring begins with an informal tutor led academic assessment. Along with a child’s academic aims, we use the results from this assessment to identify suggested areas to focus on within each tutoring session.
Parents come to Keystone for IGCSE tutoring for a number of reasons:
- Building subject confidence: Our tutoring provides students with the tools to succeed in their IGCSE exams. Individualised attention, tailored to the needs of each child, our tutoring can address specific learning needs and particular areas of development, filling in learning gaps and building subject confidence.
- Exam preparation: Our tutors can help children develop study and exam skills in the lead up to their exams. They are able to identify subject misconceptions, work on a child’s understanding and give them the tools to apply their knowledge in an exam situation through the use of practice IGCSE papers.
- Advanced learning: For those students aiming for a top grade in the subject and looking to challenge themselves, our advanced IGCSE tutoring allows children to explore a subject in greater depth in preparation for A Levels/IB.
- Learning difficulties and special education needs: We work with a team of IGCSE tutors who have extensive experience teaching students with special educational needs. The 1-to-1 tutoring environment allows students with educational needs more time to access, process and reinforce their learning, and, importantly, to ask for support in the lead up to their IGCSE exams.

Finding the right tutor for each child
We go the extra mile to match a great tutor with your child and ensure a perfect fit.
When you request a tutor through Keystone we spend a significant amount of time learning about your circumstances. Priding ourselves on how well we know our tutors’ specialist strengths, we ensure that we put forward the very best tutor for your requirements.
During the first session the tutor starts by assessing where the child is at, their academic ability, their strengths and perceived weaknesses. Tutors will then devise a programme tailored to the specific circumstances of the student and their IGCSE exam board.
After the first lesson, one of our dedicated client managers will contact you to find out how the lesson went. Our client managers are always available at the end of the phone and they are frequently praised for their efficiency, dedication and responsiveness.
