About Bee Clever

Building the skills every grammar school values.

Bee Clever provides specialist online tuition for children preparing for GL, FSCE, CEM and other grammar school entrance exams. Our carefully sequenced curriculum develops vocabulary, comprehension, mathematical reasoning, writing and problem-solving—giving children the confidence to tackle whatever appears on exam day.

Rather than teaching children to memorise question types, we develop the transferable skills that underpin success across modern grammar school entrance exams. Lessons build progressively through expert teaching, retrieval practice and regular feedback, creating confident and independent learners.

Families can choose from three levels of support:

N

Group Tuition (£100 p/month) Small-group learning with expert teaching, structured lessons and a carefully sequenced curriculum that develops confidence alongside academic ability.

N

1-to-1 Tuition (£200 p/month) Completely personalised support tailored to your child’s strengths, knowledge gaps and target schools.

N

The Platinum Programme (£275 p/month) Our most comprehensive option, combining weekly group tuition with personalised 1-to-1 coaching for maximum progress. Two hours structured learning every week accelerates progress.

Meet the founder.

Hi, I’m Dr Jamie Hall.

As an experienced teacher, former Assistant Headteacher, examiner and tutor with more than twenty years in education, I believe wholeheartedly in online tuition. No longer are parents obliged to choose the tutor who lives closest to them, or trek across town after school to the local 11+ drill factory staffed by unqualified teachers. With the tools now available to us, expert tutors can make ourselves more available to you. The best tutors, accessible to all families.

My team and I have helped children gain places at grammar schools across the country. And as both a teacher and a parent, I believe the best preparation is found in calm, structured learning built on genuine understanding and relationships.

That’s the philosophy behind Bee Clever.

 

Jamie helped improve my son’s verbal and non verbal skills enabling him to pass the 11+ exam. Jamie quickly established an excellent relationship with my son who enjoyed the weekly lessons and was motivated by Jamie’s teaching style.

– Roxy, parent of AGSB student

 

Luca successfully passed his 11+ exam and has been offered a place at grammar school. I can wholeheartedly recommend Jamie to any parent.

Small groups. Big progress

With a maximum of five pupils per class, every child receives individual attention while benefiting from discussion, collaboration and expert teacher feedback.

Calm, expert teaching

Our experienced teachers create a supportive learning environment where children feel comfortable asking questions, making mistakes and growing in confidence week after week.

Bee Clever students have gone on to schools including:

• Altrincham Grammar School for Boys. • Altrincham Girls’ Grammar School  • Stretford Grammar School  • Urmston Grammar School

Online lessons that drive progress.
