Frequently asked questions

  • Do you provide private tutors in Kensington and Chelsea?

    Yes, Lionheart Education provides hand-matched private tutors in Kensington, Chelsea, South Kensington, Knightsbridge, Holland Park, Brompton and Earl’s Court. Our tutors will travel to your home with all of the educational material needed, or your child can attend Lionheart School London at Blythe Hall in W14 for their tuition if it better suits your timetable.

  • Which Kensington and Chelsea schools do you prepare students for?

    In the past, we have worked with pupils for a huge range of London independent schools, including local prep, pre-prep and senior schools. Some of the schools we can provide 7+, 8+, 11+ and 13+ assistance with include: Wetherby, Bute House, Hill House, Glendower, Falkner House, More House, Garden House, Knightsbridge School, Thomas’s London Day Schools, Westminster, St Paul’s Girls’, Latymer Upper, City of London Girls and Queen’s Gate.

  • How quickly can a tutor start delivering sessions?

    As we take time to carefully match students with tutors, we can usually begin tuition within just 72 hours from the time of initial consultation. We work to understand the child’s needs, your home location, subjects studied, areas of concern, and the family timetable, and take everything into account before assigning the perfect tutor in Kensington and Chelsea for you.

  • Do Lionheart Education tutors come to our home, or do we come to you?

    Both options are possible as we aim to make our academic services work around your lifestyle. Many families prefer dependable home tuition as it can save time travelling in an already busy school week, but pupils attending schools close to W14 can opt for the same excellent tuition at Lionheart School London. Online tuition is also available for pupils both inside and outside of London.
