GCSE resit programme
GeorgieEnglish - Grade 4
“Since finishing Get Further, I've worked in a two AA Rossete restaurant. I'm pastry chef so get to be as creative as possible. Get Further helped by getting to know your weaknesses and building on them. Having my English so made it easier to get hired in a very established place.”

“The programme was so helpful and informative. Coming here from a different country and knowing how the system worked was really a struggle but Get Further really made it much easier with their thorough lessons, understanding and patient tutors. I am much more confident now when I want to pursue something. So now, I have been on the B-tech Applied Science course and it’s my final year. I loved it and I am off to uni to study radiology next September.”

“I’m currently doing Level 2 childcare and it's been going well. I'm glad I passed maths otherwise I wouldn't be able to do the course I’m on now. I’m hoping to get a job in early years or a primary school. The tutoring helped me as it was almost 1-1 support with maths which I worked well with. To someone just starting their GCSE resit, I'd say don't be afraid and ask questions if you don't understand anything as everyone was really kind, and good luck”

“After I passed maths and English with the help of my amazing maths and English tutors, I have done my level 2 qualification in carpentry. The Get Further tutoring has helped me get to where I am now. If I did not pass math and English, I would not have gotten into my next course at college, and therefore got my new job as a supervisor.”

“Tutoring really improved my confidence. It stopped me from saying “Oh, I can't do this”. My tutor knew my strengths and my weaknesses and I was comfortable enough to ask for help. I'm doing access to nursing now, which is a pathway to get into university. The plan from there is to hopefully work for the NHS counselling people.”
ErinMaths - Grade 6
“I got my results and I got a 6! I was aiming for a 4 so I'm over the moon with my results. My tutor pushed and supported me to aim higher, and I did it! My tutor didn't give up on me even on the hard days, which gave me confidence to keep working. I've just been offered a managers position for meaningful engagement at a dementia specialist care home! I started as an assistant and worked my way up to now handling budgets, rotas and external support in providing the best positive outcomes for the residents.”
fUNCTIONAL SKILLS programme
JameliaMaths - Passed
"Get Further was a life changer for me honestly. Those 2 hours you learn so much. It is not rushed and it gives you time to understand each topic step by step. The tutors are very dedicated and understanding. I would definitely recommend it. But also practice what you've learnt in your spare time."
JoelMaths - passed
"At school I really struggled with maths as it takes me a while to process numbers. My tutor took time to make sure I understood the lessons, and when I got stuck, he never rushed and helped me get through it. I was surprised I enjoyed the lessons because when I left school, I really didn’t like maths. The confidence I’ve gained will help me pass my Institute of Fire Engineer (IFE) courses and help with future promotions."
PeterMaths - Passed
"The sessions gave me the confidence to improve. To be honest not be scared of doing maths as this subject I have always struggled with in the past and being out of school for 15 years coming back to do maths was really a big pressure for me and had a lot of anxiety about it ,but the way the tutor was with us and the way the work books were set out made it easy to follow and understand and give me confidence in completing homework on my own and then eventually sitting and passing my exam to require the level I needed to sit my final practical and theory exams to become a competent fire fighter."
