Maths and English Tuition for Children Aged 6 to 16

Celebrating 12 years of English and Maths tuition in Lisburn.

About On Target Tuition

On Target Tuition is owned and run by husband and wife team Martin and Clare Rimmer.

We are both qualified teachers with over 20 years’ experience between us. On Target Tuition opened in Market Square, Lisburn in 2007. We are excited to be celebrating 12 years tutoring children in maths and English in the Lisburn area.

Children come from all over the Lisburn and Greater Belfast area to attend our tuition centre. Our teachers tutor children from: Lisburn, Dunmurry, Derriaghy, Lambeg, Antrim, Ballinderry, Maghaberry, Moira, Aghalee, Lurgan, Craigavon, Banbridge, Dromore, Dromara, Hillsborough, Saintfield, Carryduff, Crumlin, Ballynahinch and Annahilt. We have even had students come to us from as far away as Castlewellan and North Belfast.

The business has grown from a handful of students a week to a bustling tuition centre, employing 11 tutors and tutoring over 150 children a week.

We are proud to say that over fifty percent of our students come from word of mouth referrals making us Lisburn’s number one choice for parents when it comes to finding a tutor for their child. Parents and children are most welcome to visit us and have a look around our centre.

What happens when you bring your child to On Target Tuition?

The first step to beginning your child’s tuition journey is to bring them in for an informal assessment. These take place on a Saturday afternoon and usually last between 30 to 45 minutes.

Your child will be assessed thoroughly in maths and/or English and we will give you the feedback straight away. We will be able to pinpoint their strengths and weaknesses in the subject area and will discuss with you how we can fill in the gaps in their knowledge.

We will use this assessment data to put together a programme of work specifically designed to target their individual needs. This might include: helping them prepare for a test, helping them achieve a comfortable level in the classroom, giving support for specific learning needs such as dyslexia or extending them beyond their current classroom level.

Once the assessment is complete we can discuss what days and times we have available in our timetable and pencil your child in for their weekly tuition slot.

Your child will then attend tuition once a week. Each 80 minute session will be broken down into short activities, some written and some on our computer software.

Our experienced, qualified tutors will teach your child according to their own targeted plan of work. If your child is studying for an exam then this tuition will include some past paper practise and exam technique.

Feedback is given verbally after each lesson and you can discuss with your child’s teacher the progress they have made and what the next steps in their learning will be. This process is the same whether your child is attending term time lessons or summer school lessons.
