Tuition designed to stretch capable students, not just drill exam technique.
Students have received offers from London's leading independent schools.
The best tuition is personal. It combines individual attention with a focused peer environment.
Founded by an experienced private school teacher and tutor; we combine creative writing expertise with carefully selected tutors to deliver 11+ English support.
Why Choose Creative Hare?
Most 11+ English preparation forces a trade-off. Some children are heavily coached for exams. Their answers become correct but formulaic. They learn how to follow a structure, yet struggle to demonstrate the originality, insight and authentic voice that leading independent schools value.
Others develop strong reading and writing skills. But without the exam technique and strategy needed to translate that potential into outstanding 11+ performance. The strongest candidates need both. Parents should not have to choose.
Creative Hare helps analytically minded children turn English into a strength. Through structured, online 11+ English preparation, children develop the skills, confidence and exam technique needed to achieve top English scores and stand out in competitive independent school admissions.
Big Confidence in English
We do not believe in coaching children to produce identical answers. We believe long-term success is not just about passing an exam – it is about becoming someone who can think, write and communicate with clarity.
Creative Hare develops articulate, thoughtful children and equips them with the techniques required to excel in demanding 11+ English assessments.
The result? A child who combines outstanding English performance with the insight and confidence that help them stand out in competitive independent school admissions.
Our approach helps develop:
- High-level reading and analytical abilities
- Sophisticated and well-structured writing
- Exam techniques specific to selective schools
- Confidence under exam conditions
- Communication skills that support your child’s 11+ journey.
Clarify Your Child’s 11+ English Pathway to Success
If you are considering 11+ English tuition for your child, the best step is to book a consultation with Clare. This is a relaxed conversation to discover whether Creative Hare is the right fit for your child.
For parents who would prefer to experience the Creative Hare approach first, we offer 11+ creative writing workshops. These sessions give children a clear sense of Clare’s teaching approach, while introducing the writing and thinking skills needed for competitive entrance exams.
There is no obligation to continue after either option. You will leave with clear, expert guidance on how best to support your child moving forward.
Students regularly receive offers from competitive independent schools, where strong English skills are an important factor in the admissions process. The small-group programmes combine structured teaching with close guidance for each student.
For parents seeking one-to-one support, Clare can also recommend a carefully selected 11+ English online tutor.
