Success Stories

11+ Maths Results

Real outcomes from families who trusted us with their child's 11+ maths preparation.

โ€œMy daughter was confident in school maths but kept losing marks on the problem-solving questions. Her Nisus tutor identified exactly which question types were catching her out and drilled those specifically. She passed with a very strong score.โ€

Helen Park

Parent โ€” Hertfordshire

โ€œThe timed practice element was the difference. My son could do the maths but was always running out of time. After 3 months with Nisus his speed improved dramatically. He flew through the exam.โ€

Tariq Hussain

Parent โ€” London

โ€œWe started with Nisus just 4 months before the exam after being disappointed with another tutor. The targeted approach to the actual 11+ question types made an immediate difference. Passed first attempt.โ€
