Prices
Per hour, in a block, or by the term.
Three ways to pay for the same lesson. Pay as you go costs most and commits you to nothing; a block of ten is cheaper and refundable pro rata; a term plan is cheapest and includes two marked mocks. Tuition is VAT-exempt, nothing is added, and the first session is free whichever you choose.

Questions about paying
Is there VAT?
No. Private tuition in school subjects is exempt from VAT, so the figure on the page is the figure on the invoice.
What if we miss a lesson?
With 24 hours' notice, no charge and the slot is kept. Without notice, pay as you go is charged; a block lesson is carried over; a term plan gets one free catch-up a term. A tutor who is ill gives you a catch-up or a credit, every time.
Can we stop a block or a term plan?
A block is refunded pro rata for unused hours at any time. A term plan is refunded pro rata after the fourth week; before that, in full if you tell us the reason, which is usually that it is working and the job is done.
Do you do bursaries?
Four places a term at half price for families on free school meals, by application to Eleri, no questions beyond the form. Say so when you book the free session.
Start with the free session. Forty-five minutes, no obligation.
Tell us the year group and the subject, and we match a tutor and offer a slot for a free first session at the centre or online: an assessment, a chat with you both, and an honest view of what would help. We reply within the working day. Or ring the office.
