What our friends say about us…
My son started his 11+ preparation in February [of Year 5]. At that point his success in the Kent Grammar Test was questionable. Thanks to the extremely well structured program and high professionalism of all teachers involved, he passed his test with a score of 383 points [out of 423, pass mark 320], his maths score being the highest possible. We are going back to Kin Learning in the new year for more tutoring and this was a request from my son. I can’t recommend them enough!
IglikaSon passed Kent grammar test.
Thank you so much, very professional. When my son Hamza joined , he was so behind but Kin Learning really did a big efforts with him and now he’s doing very well.
Definitely highly recommend.
Thank you so much for all.

The II+ is a long and stressful journey not only for child, but also for the parent. But I am very lucky having Kamilah to support us along this journey.
This October is the most happy time for all of us in the family, the good news comes every week, because my son passed all his exams which included very highly selective grammar schools in the country, so he is actually can go any school he wants to go :))
Many thanks for Kamilah and Kin Learning team, I definitely recommend!
