Our story
Meet Alex, founder of ABT
AB Tutoring UK was founded in 2020 by Alex, while completing her undergraduate degree in Pharmacology at King’s College London. During her own time as a student, Alex worked as a tutor for several companies — and quickly recognised how disconnected traditional education can be from the different ways people learn.
"My passion for tutoring is deeply personal. Without access to tuition, university would not have been possible for me. Access to tailored support that fits the individual, and their learning style, should not be something that people struggle to gain - it should be a tool every young person can access."
85% of UK students experience exam anxiety, affecting how they perform regardless of if they know the content or not.
How a student prepares for an exam emotionally is just as important as how they tackle revision. ABT bridge this gap. We teach students about their brain, empowering them them to recognise and harness how they learn. Our students learn from subject matter experts who live and breathe their subject, and encourage learners to explore beyond the syllabus; curating knowledge and skills that enable them to explore and enjoy questions, not just answer them. Students leave us as resilient learners, strategic thinkers, and exceptional achievers.
Our Ethos
Mental Health First, Always
When we enjoy what we're doing, we learn and retain more of it. We don't enjoy what we're doing when we're unwell, or stressed, or generally just having a "meh" day!
We prioritise the mental and physical health of our students, and encourage them to put themselves first.
When students take control of their emotional and physical wellbeing and understand their brain more, they become more confident and resilient individuals.
Our Vision
Quality, Personalised, and Accessible Tuition
Every young person learns differently, so why should they be limited to classroom learning?
We believe that tuition should be a tool a student can access as easily as a pencil from their pencil case!
Tuition with us is tailored to the individual,. We help them get to know how they work, and how they learn; enabling them to achieve academically, and beyond.
