University Advice
We offer specialist help and application support for students applying to the world’s top universities.

With knowledge of further education options in the UK, North America, Europe and Asia, we help every individual to find their passion while being well set-up for life.


Test and Interview Prep
Interviews and entrance exams are a common feature of school application procedures. We familiarise you with what to expect and conduct mock interviews for practice. Having seen many students through school entrance exams, we can prepare students with advice on curriculum differences, analysing gaps in knowledge and working through our bank of past papers.
Professional Tutoring
We have access to excellent tutors, whether for specific curriculum needs or general enrichment. Our tutors are experienced teachers who are familiar with local school syllabuses as well as the UK National Curriculum. We also work closely with advanced tutors for UK and US university preparation. Depending on your preference, tutoring may take place online or in person, and at your residence or in a centre.
