Intuition started in 2012 and has tuition centres in Manchester. Intuition offers affordable, additional educational support to children and young people, residing in South Manchester and surrounding areas.
Our tuition classes are available to children and young people aged 8 – 16 years on preparation for examinations at all key stages. In partnership with parents/guardians and schools, we aim to identify and remove barriers to learning by raising student’s self esteem and improving attainment in order for students to become confident learners. We also support those who are already exceeding targets by progressing towards outstanding performance. We invite parents/guardians and students to discuss their educational needs and indicate areas of concern at the point of registration. This gives us an understanding of individual needs in order to provide an efficient service. Intuition offers support with homework and coursework, based on a ratio of one to small group tuition.
We are proud to say that we have mainly grown through word of mouth referrals, which account for more than half of our current students!
