What customers say

Based on genuine customer reviews

Families bringing children for help with mathematics and English make up most of the feedback for this Hull East tuition provider. Parents describe pupils moving from grade 2 to grade 4 within four months, and a son who had been scraping through his Year 6 mock assessments finishing two marks below the expected standard. Regular assessments that monitor progress and the clear, concise feedback given to parents come up often, with requests to add material to a child's programme reportedly acted upon.

Encouragement and confidence-building recur throughout, particularly for an apprentice bricklayer who required a maths qualification and worked with Alan, and for children who were initially unsure but now look forward to each session. Friendliness is another repeated theme, with Hayley and Liz named frequently for their helpfulness and understanding. The centre's work reaches beyond subject teaching, with customers noting the self-belief pupils gain, and one family describing a son who moved from anxiety about attending to genuine enjoyment of the weekly lessons. Confidence grows alongside the academic gains in almost every account.

Amazing staff, welcoming and informative of progress. Daughter loves going and is showing lots of progress in her school work after only a term and a half. Would recommend Kip for tutoring.

After the success of my eldest child's achievements from accessing Kip, it was never a doubt that my other child was going to attend. The time spent, encouragement and want for them to achieve is second to non and know how much it's going to help him when he sits his GCSE’s this year. Can't thank all involved in both my boys journeys enough and would 100% recommend to anyone wanting to support their child's development and confidence.

My son went from barely passing his mock SATs in Year 6 to being two marks shy of being expected by the end of the school year! Massive improvement in a few months.

The staff at Kip McGrath Hull East are fantastic. All of my children have used the service and it is a huge benefit to them all. They are accommodating, see each student as an individual and always act in a professional manner. They help the children engage in activities and encourage them to try without being pushy or negative. The certificates they award the children are also great as it boosts the childs confidence and they feel that their efforts are being rewarded. I recommend this service to anyone looking for extra tuition or help with dyslexia, you will not be disappointed.

Amazed how far my daughter has improved since attending Kip. She is dyslexic and up until a year ago she really struggled to read - in the past year she has come on massively and now will confidently read so much more. It has made a huge impact on her school work and confidence in daily tasks. My son has also recently been attending Kip for extra work towards year 6 sats. He is so much more confident in how to answer questions and can work on a 121 basis on the things that he struggles with. The staff are all lovely and encouraging.

When my daughter started at Kip McGrath, she was achieving grade 2s and lacked confidence. Just four months later, she’s now achieving grade 4s and feels so much more positive about her learning. We’re incredibly grateful for the difference Kip McGrath has made.
