Its a wonderful center, providing the most structured coaching. The teacher Kiah has been extremely helpful. Definitely money's worth.

We considered a range of tuition centres/tutors for our child. Having done our research, we selected AE based on glowing recommendations we read on Trust Pilot and heard from friends whose children had been through the courses. Until CV-19, the provision for years 4 & 5 was very good. Up to this point, we would have rated it 4 stars. We worked exceptionally hard to secure the best teachers - booking is a nightmare - and they certainly delivered. This is in stark contrast to TAs, who were often taught by my child rather than the other way around! I was forewarned about this - to ensure I did ALL corrections with my child and not to rely on TAs. After all, they are just slightly older children themselves with variable levels of ability. Select few were helpful, most were not. I would have to re-run through aspects I had highlighted for them to cover as they had not been able to explain things to my child. This is the reason why I would have rated 4 stars. Unfortunately, AE has been unwilling and unable to adequately adapt to these very difficult circumstances - both from a technological and teaching perspective. At any time when suggestions were made from parents about how to improve the experience or provision, there was a flat ‘no’ in response. I’m not aware of a single tuition centre/tutor who has not adapted to live online teaching. Instead, AE doggedly pursued its decision to produce videos with no ability for interaction or engagement. My child switched off. Their results plummeted with no accountability to a teacher. All of the benefit of excellent teaching evaporated. My child didn’t see or speak to their teacher for months. AE didn’t even bother to ask parents to report results from class or test work to track our child’s progress in order to pick up if anything was array, which it was. When this was pointed out, there was no assistance to help the child course correct. AE insisted its teachers could not teach live online for a variety of spurious reasons. This is in contrast to many schools and tuition centres that did successfully. Our child’s school, IT team and teachers understandably had a lot of trepidation about undertaking this huge endeavour. Yet, they put in practice the growth mindset they preach and promptly got on with the task. They used the Easter break to pivot and up-skill. Yes, there were teething problems. Teaching 40 children live through online technology with a live projector, virtual whiteboard and posting work online for checking throughout the class had its challenges. Yet the school, teachers, parents and children all quickly overcame these together. We all came out better for it with our children having a positive experience of seeing and interacting with their teachers and peers, having live lessons and continuing to progress at a good rate. AE eventually procured laptops and technology to allow for live online teaching though zoom. We breathed a sigh of relief. Again, unfortunately, this was put in place months later with 2 weeks left to run of the course AND, whilst the class teacher was present, only TAs were expected to teach. This set up should have been done far quicker and was too tardy to be of benefit in mid-July. There was no reason why the teachers could not have taught live online when everything was (finally!) set up for success, especially for summer courses. It was AE’s stubborn refusal to offer this service provision. AE insists on all work being done, marked and corrected in a timely manner. With a rigorous programme of classwork and testpacks to complete, in some cases, videos for these testpacks were not put up for months after the week they were set. There are 3 AE centres, unlimited number of video production companies and a large body of teachers but, apparently, only classwork videos could be filed as a priority (when it all should have been done concurrently). AE promised to support these poor children (who have missed school at a pivotal time and missed high quality AE face to face teaching) until their exams in Oct/Nov, however, all videos will be taken down at the end of August. It would be a great way to support these children and parents to leave the testpack videos up for a second or third review of difficult questions. Apparently, AE are not prepared to bear the cost of IT investment to create a new or adapt the existing summer secondary portal to allow for this facility. Overall, a demonstrable lack of agility, ingenuity and modernisation. This has been a classic case of far too little, far too late. I understand from AE this provision worked ok for some - good on them. I have a request - AE please do not respond to this review. All feedback given was futile. We’re tired of hearing excuses, will continue to fend for ourselves with the 11+ process and do not wish to engage any further.

My son started attending AE tuition in Sep 2018 since he was in Year 4. Initially during lockdown, as a parent was really concerned as to how he would receive 11 plus exam support, as he is taking these exams this year. With this in mind, have been really impressed at how the Centre has supported him during this time. For example, as soon as the Centre started their online classes all the recorded lectures were posted in the parental portal. Also, all books were sent via special delivery and regular emails/video clips were posted by the Director to inform parents on how to further support their children further. As a parent I am very happy with the service received from AE tuition. Courses are well planned as per the students’ need, with Teachers and assistants working with real expertise to support them. Should also mention here that parents were offered discounts during the lockdown period. From my own personal experience, therefore, would highly recommend AE tuition, as they have been great during lockdown.

My daughter joined AE tuitions in the beginning of year 5. A well organised tuition centre with special focus to CEM and GL type of 11+ exams .I highly recommend

no i do not like this it is bad

Extremely rude staff, very much over rated and expensive. Costs keep going up each year but service going down. Have done little to support customers during the corona virus both Parents & pupils. My recommendation is stay away you can find much better supporting and smaller companies at a fraction of the costs. Especially while lessons are not taking place, what is the point of paying large amounts of money without proper tuition.

Been with AE Tuition with 2 previous boys and now currently third child. Missed my payment because of the current restriction having lost job and income. told AE payment would be slightly delayed and wanted son to continue with course but they cancelled immediately without any understanding just because payment late. Where is the compassion in these uncertain times and after sending 3 children and recommending others. By there own figure charge following 278 per Month have 2500 Children Comes to 695,000. Per Month times that by 12 Months comes to 8,340,000. Make what you want of this......... would love to hear from others with simular stories

AE Tutiton helped my kid to have an organised study, my kid enjoyed the journey and selected in all the gammer school entrance tests attempted with good scores

My daughter went to AE Tuition for 11+ preparation and has successfully cleared the exams she appeared in. We are really impressed by the methodical approach and study materials provided by AE Tuition. It not only helped to prepare for some of the tough exams, but also supports developing thinking patterns and problem solving approach. A special thanks to Ms. Claire Castell, who was amazing in explaining concepts and teaching methods relevant for exam conditions. Also, a big thanks to the team of supervisors (Reema, Manraj and others) who tirelessly worked every week and helped with correcting tests and homework 1-on-1 basis.

The course was excellent. The vast variety of books provided, level of teaching, level of support provided before and after exams, clarity and honesty, staff, support staff everything was excellent. We are very pleased with learning and achievements.
