11+ Specialist Tutor and KS2 Support

Recommended Posts

As a specialist tutor with a 12-year experience, I am committed to the success of my students and provide a friendly learning environment so that they can gain in confidence and indeed succeed. In the last round of exams, I am proud to say that all my students secured places at the best private and/or grammar schools in South-East London (Alleyn’s, St Dunstan’s, Dulwich College, Colfe’s, JAGS, Whitgift, Trinity, Eltham College, Wilson Grammar, Wallington High School, St Olaves, Newstead Woods, etc.) With a life-time in education and teaching, I also believe in providing strong foundations, so that students not only succeed in entering the school of their choice, but also flourish once there.

My sessions offer:

- a one-to-one focus to address your child's unique ways to learn so he/she can attain the expected level of attainment in all subjects (English, including Persuasive and Creative Writing; Maths, Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning; interview coaching).

- a thorough knowledge of the requirements for each specific selective test.

- the in-depth study of all subjects and specific exam techniques.

- parents and children support for what can be a daunting process.

Consultation about grammar and independent schools in the local area also available.

I teach online and in-person. My contacts: [email protected] / 0749 7767 661.

I am always happy to have an initial conversation if required.

"We've just accepted one of the school offers for our son and are happy the whole 11+ process is over! If you're looking for a safe pair of hands, I'd highly recommend Caroline Perret as an 11+ tutor. She covers all the 11+ topics in 1:1 sessions on Zoom. She tutored our son weekly from the beginning of year 5 until the exams. As our son was in a state primary school and we/parents don't have experience with 11+, we relied on Caroline's guidance. She taught him lots of techniques and stretched him to be at the right level for the schools he wanted to go for. She also managed the ups and downs of his mood and motivation well to keep it stress free. The homework was also reasonable. My son got an offer in all 3 schools he applied to as well as an academic scholarship: Highgate school (in North West London), Alleyns and Eltham college.”

"If you’re looking for tuition for your child (for the 11 plus, entrance exams or to support primary school curriculum learning) we can recommend Caroline Perret who tutored our son. Caroline is filled with a love of learning herself and makes the sessions engaging and enjoyable while at the same time identifying the areas in which the child needs support. A recipe for stress free success."

"Caroline tutored my son over Zoom prior to him sitting exams for senior school.  Their sessions were always very calm and focussed and Caroline managed to cover a lot of content with him in a short time including maths, English, verbal and non-verbal reasoning. If you are looking to support your child through these 11+ / senior school exams, as well as persuasive and creative writing, I would highly recommend Caroline.”

"Caroline is a kind, warm and inspiring tutor. My 10-year-old daughter always looked forward to her sessions with Caroline and she became very well prepared for her 11+ exams."

"We were very happy indeed with Caroline - Imogen and Bailey both got offers from all schools applied for, and Bailey has two academic scholarships and a third scholarship interview, so they have done wonderfully - thank you!"

"When tutoring my son Theo, Caroline was really committed and was brilliant for keeping him motivated. They had a really nice relationship. She has an amazing ability to make the lessons fun and was always coming up with inventive ways of teaching. I've just asked my son if he wanted to add anything and he said: "She knew me really well."

"I have known Caroline for around four years and she has taught two of my four children. In terms of teaching content, I have found her to be a very well-prepared and diligent teacher, with creative ideas about how to engage the children, taking into account differing needs. She is very personable and popular with the children - they have always very much looked forward to seeing her. On the practical side, she is organised, punctual and communicative."

"I am the parent of a child whom Caroline has recently tutored. She has adeptly guided my daughter through the 11+ content required for some competitive local secondary schools and taught her even more besides! Just as importantly, my daughter has loved her sessions with Caro and they have helped instill what I hope will be a lifelong love for learning, in her! Caroline is awesome and I shall use her for my younger children, when the time comes!"

"Caroline has great expertise in guiding and preparing children for their 11+ and academic scholarships whilst ensuring that the process remains fun and stress-free. Our daughter was eventually offered an academic scholarship to the school of our choice and so we were delighted with the outcome and would recommend Caroline wholeheartedly."

    • The lack of affordable housing is down to Thatcher's promoting sale of council properties. When I was working, I had to deal with many families/older folk/ disabled folk in inferior housing. The worst ones were ex council properties purchased by their tenants  with a very high discount who then sold on for a profit. The new owners frequently rented out at exorbitant prices and failed to maintain the properties. I remember a gentleman who needed to be visited by a district nurse daily becoming very upset as he rented a room in an ex council flat and shared kitchen and bathroom with 6 other people  (it was a 3 bed flat) the landlord did not allow visitors to the flat and this gut was frightened he would be evicted if the nurse visited daily. Unfortunately, the guy was re admitted to hospital and ended up in a care home as he could not receive medical help at home.   Private developers  are not keen on providing a larger percentage of 'social housing' as it dents their profits. Also a social rent is still around £200 plus a week
    • Hello, I was wondering if others have had experience of roof repairs and guarantees. A while back, we had a water leak come through in our top floor room.  A roofer came and went out on the roof to take a look - they said it was to do with a leak near the chimney.   They did some rendering around the chimney and this cost £1800 plus £750 for scaffolding (so £2,550 total).  They said the work came with a 10 year guarantee. About a year later, there was another leak on the same wall, which looked exactly the same size and colour as the previous leak. But it was about 2 metres away from it, on the other side of a window.  I contacted the roofer about this new leak, thinking it would be covered by the guarantee. However, he said the new leak was due to a different and unrelated problem, and so was not covered by the guarantee. This new leak, he said, was due to holes in the felt underneath the tiles. He said there are holes in the felt all over the roof (so if this was the cause, I expect the first leak may have been caused by that too - but he didn't mention the holes in the felt for the first repair). It feels like the 10-year guarantee doesn't mean much at all.  I realise that the guarantee couldn't cover all future problems with the roof, but where do you draw the line with what's reasonable?  Is it that a leak is only covered if an identical leak happens in exactly the same place?  There were no terms and conditions with the guarantee, which I didn't question at the time.  
    • I always like Redemptions coffee though I've not visted for awhile..Romeo Jones was always my 1st choice for takeout Coffee Redemption 2nd. What IS with all these independent Yoga and Pilates Studios? Theres one on London Rd in Forest Hill (Mind) thats recently opened and then theres the Pilates place thats opened on North X Road. I looked at the prices of the one on NorthX road and was frankly shocked at how expensive it is, The FH one is slightly less.  Made me decide to stick with classes in The local authority gym
    • Dulwich Village update: The old DVillage location is (again?) under offer. The storefront next to the new grocer is going to open as a yoga and pilates studio...the name of which I've forgotten. 🤦‍♂️  Megan's is starting to push its takeaway coffee and cannibalise some of Redemption Coffee's market share. Is Megan's struggling? It's quite a big restaurant they have and rent cant be cheap. The reinventing of the Megan's branch on Lordship Lane as Ollie's seems to have stalled. And Redemption is looking a bit tired these days...
