LOCAL children are being offered sponsored places on 12 week tutor programmes to help them master subjects they may struggle with.

Genie Tutors, which works with children in the local area, have partnered with Kallikids and are offering a number of free sessions at its tuition centre based at MTG Studios, Lister Mills, Manningham.

This opportunity will allow children aged between 5 and 16 to receive free tuition in English, maths or science.

Genie Tutors tailors sessions to children’s needs, and involve parents and carers at every stage - which they believe help with children’s development.

After every session, the tutor will give parents feedback about the progress their child has made, listen to their views and discuss what the next steps will be in the weeks to come.

The Centre Manager at Genie Tutors in Bradford, Kirti Patel said: “This is a fantastic opportunity for your child to receive free tuition for 12 weeks which would usually be charged.

“We’d really like all children to benefit from the expert tuition that our dedicated team of qualified teachers and education professionals are able to provide.”

The deadline to apply for the free places is the end of September.
