TOP UP YOUR CHILD’S CONFIDENCE!!!!

You never get a second chance to make a first impression!

We know the value that private schools place on their interview selection process. They want to get a close look at whether a candidate would be suitable for their school, complement the other children and be happy.

At Dukes Tutoring we believe that it is vitally important for each child to approach their school interviews with confidence. That is why we offer a bespoke interview preparation session with all of our Year 6 students sitting the independent school exams. Feedback from previous years has shown us that it is incredibly helpful and reassuring for our students.

All schools interview differently.  Some have individual interviews, some paired and some in groups.  Tania runs through how the interview process works, what types of questions might be asked and how the children might like to consider their answers to these questions. It is really important that the answers come from the children, not from Tania, or the parent, but this preparatory session gives children the time to think in advance about their answers so they will be more confident on the day.  Tania also runs through other top tips for the interview day for students AND parents and also carries out a mock English oral test with the children.

If you would like any further information or would like to book a session please call Tania on 0203 488 0754
