About Me
11+ Specialist
Hi, I’m Meenakshi Kalra (known as Meena by my extended 11+ family)…
With 20+ years of experience, I am a qualified teacher who believes in a nurturing environment for shaping children’s futures. My success as an 11+ mentor(tutor) is rooted in regular communication with parents, well-structured interactive sessions, and bespoke assessments, resulting in a success rate of over 95% every year. Additionally, ensuring the safety and well-being of my students is of utmost importance to me, which is why I hold a current DBS certificate. I have an intuitive understanding of the joys, challenges, and sacrifices that come along with the 11+ journey as I have been through this arduous entrance process myself as a parent with my children. I started my 11+ journey in 2008 to support my son and later helped my daughter prepare for the 11 plus grammar school exams. I helped them to secure their places at Queen Elizabeth Boys (QE Boys) School and Henrietta Barnett School (HBS). My former experience as a teacher and personal 11+ journey motivated me to support other parents and their children on this path so that they too can achieve success.

5/5
Overall we had a brilliant experience. She went above and beyond to engage the group and challenge them often to a more advanced level which equipped them for the tests. There was an excellent structure and adequate time for parent feedback and questions. We couldn’t have done it without Meena’s expert knowledge. We will be forever grateful 😊

Meena is a very experienced tutor who not only teaches the children but guides the parents through the whole 11+ process. She has invaluable tips and trips that you cannot find in a textbook and uses her knowledge to develop her pupils understanding of how to get extra points in the exams, that most other candidates may not have. It’s testament to Meena’s tutoring skills that all the students in my son’s cohort secured a place at one of their chosen schools, both grammar and independent. I would highly recommend Meena’s tutoring groups to any parents who choose to embark on the 11+ journey.
