East Calder Learning Centre

Build confidence and fulfil their potential. - Undertake successful exam preparation in order to achieve desired results. - Gain entry into private school through succeeding in entrance examinations. Students of all ages attend the study centre once a week for around 30 minutes per subject. In these classes they will hand in their previous week’s work and complete on-site worksheets which will be marked, returned and discussed with the tutor. They are then set a programme of 15-30 minutes of work per day to do at home, practising what they have learnt in class, to ensure mastery and fluency at each step. As our English and Maths programmes are flexible and tailored to the learner's individual needs and abilities, our students move on only when they are confident with a topic. This helps with their school work, builds confidence and develops independent learning skills, all of which are extremely important in today’s busy school classrooms. Regular testing ensures that the best possible progress is made. The ‘little and often’ approach, with plenty of repetition when required, really does make a huge difference.
