How LinkyThinks Tutoring Works

Our small-group online English classes are often oversubscribed, so joining the waitlist is the best way to hear about suitable places for your child.

Step 1 - Join the Waitlist

Tell us your child’s age, school year and the class or classes you feel they need, from Key Stage 2 Creative Writing and Comprehension to KS3 English and GCSE Essay Writing.

Step 2 - Receive an Offer

When your child reaches the top of the list for a suitable class, we’ll contact you with an offer of an available place, term details and a time-limited deadline to secure it.

3 - Confirm Your Booking

Secure the place by paying for the term or choosing the LinkyThinks Tutoring Membership, where available. You’ll then receive your booking confirmation, class links and included resources or extras.

Step 4 - Start the Term

Before classes begin, we’ll send any relevant homework and submission details. Each term includes fresh content, weekly learning, class-specific homework where appropriate and the opportunity for a personal tutor feedback call.

Every term is new and progressive. We never repeat class content from one term to the next, allowing children to keep building their skills over time.

English Tuition for Learners who Think Differently

From SATs to 11+, entrance exams to GCSEs and building emotional, social, critical & academic skills, LinkyThinks helps children succeed, whatever their background or ability.

LinkyThinks tuition is designed to support a range of learning styles, including many neurodivergent learners.


Our classes and resources are popular with families looking for thoughtful support around ADHD, autism, dyslexia and other learning needs, including children awaiting formal assessment.
