About Serena's Tuition

Teaching Style

 Learning is so much easier (and more enjoyable) when it’s engaging, interesting, and just the right level of challenging. That’s exactly why we design all our small group tuition sessions with these three things in mind.

Whether your child could do with a little extra support in English and Maths or they’re preparing for the 11+/Kent/Medway Test, we’re here to help. We plan lively, well-paced lessons that keep them motivated and on their toes. And when it fits, we love adding a hands-on, practical element—because learning is always more meaningful when it feels relevant and real.

If this sounds like the right kind of tuition for your child, we’d love to hear from you. Get in touch, and let’s see how we can help!

Meet the Team!

 Serena's Tuition is actually made up of three fun, experienced, and qualified teachers: Serena, Bal, and Lisa—think of us as the Charlie's Angels of education! We're all about engaging, practical, and informal teaching, and we’re passionate about making learning fun for every child.

Serena

Fun fact: I was born in a school—so I guess teaching was always on the cards! After trying my hand at careers in recruitment and journalism, I finally found my true calling. I grew up in Gravesend, went to Benenden School, then backpacked around South America before heading to Edinburgh University for an MA (Hons) in Economic and Social History.

Whilst pregnant with my first child, I decided to take the plunge into teaching. I got my PGCE in 2011, and taught in various schools across Gravesend and Medway. In 2019, I went solo, and ...Serena’s Tuition was born! It's been thriving ever since, and I’m loving the chance to help kids fall in love with learning through small-group tuition.

Bal

I’m Bal, and I’ve been teaching for over 16 years in Foundation Stage, KS1, and KS2. I’ve got a degree in English and Psychology, plus a PGCE. I’m passionate about helping kids of all ages reach their potential. I even helped my own son smash the 11+ recently!

I know that every student is different, and I love finding the best approach to boost both their grades and their confidence. I’m patient, dedicated, and always aim to create a relaxed learning environment where students feel comfortable and confident.

Lisa

I’ve had a bit of a rollercoaster career! I started out as a theatre electrician and worked in the West End, but when I became a mum, I decided to change direction. I trained as a teaching assistant and then went on to study teaching at Greenwich University, specialising in Design and Technology.

I’ve taught at a range of schools, including special needs schools and mainstream schools, where I taught everything from Maths to ICT, Business Studies, and DT. I believe learning should always be fun and engaging, and I love adding a little humour to my lessons!
