About the Programme

The Teen Scholars programme is designed for learners aged 13 to 15, when English becomes more analytical, more structured and more demanding. We help students organise ideas, support opinions and communicate with greater accuracy and confidence.

Lessons combine academic English with real communication β€” discussion, reading, vocabulary, grammar, writing and presentation β€” so learners develop skills they can use at school and in everyday life.

How Each Session Works

One focused 60-minute session each week β€” enough time for deeper discussion, sustained reading and writing, and useful individual feedback.

Common Questions

How long is each class and how often?
One 60-minute live session every week, with approximately 50 minutes of focused teaching and 10 minutes for feedback, recap, questions and next-step targets.
Is this a GCSE tutoring course?
No. The Teen Scholars is an English-development programme rather than subject-specific GCSE tuition. It strengthens the writing, comprehension, vocabulary and communication skills that support secondary education.
Group or 1-on-1 β€” which is better?
Groups (maximum 5) are excellent for discussion and confidence; private lessons offer a fully personalised route. We can recommend the best fit after the free assessment.
Does my teenager need to be advanced already?
No. The free assessment helps us understand the learner's current level and confidence so the teaching can be pitched appropriately.
Are teachers DBS checked?
Yes. Every SpeakBrit teacher working with children is required to hold a valid Enhanced DBS certificate before teaching.
