Verbal & Non-Verbal Reasoning Essentials

Did you know that verbal and non-verbal reasoning question types feature in most 11+ exams and yet they are not usually taught in schools?

What’s more, many of these question types are notoriously difficult to master - so it’s essential that your child has plenty of practice ahead of exam day.

Our 11+ Essentials Verbal and Non-verbal Reasoning courses will help your child to unravel the mysteries of verbal and non-verbal reasoning through a series of live online lessons.

Covering all the main reasoning question types that feature on a range of different tests, including Secondary Transfer, Eleven Plus and independent schools’ entrance exams.

Ideal for families taking the ‘DIY’ approach who would like a bit of support along the way, or for students attending tutoring who would like an extra boost.

Course timings: commencing 27th February 2025!

Verbal reasoning: Thursdays, 4.15pm-5.15pm

Non-verbal reasoning: Thursdays, 5.30pm-6.30pm
