Every Group Tutoring Programme Promises an A*. Ask Them This One Question

We help A-Level students improve exam performance in Biology, Chemistry, and Maths using a structured academic system. If you're looking for additional A-Level support for your teen, you've probably seen the same promises everywhere. A/A* results. Outstanding tutors. Proven success. Impressive testimonials. But before choosing any group tutoring programme, there's one question I think every parent should ask: “Who do you accept?” Because an A* result sounds impressive. But compared to what? If a programme only accepts students who are already achieving As and A*s, helping those students achieve an A* tells you something very different from helping a student move from a C or D to an A or A*. The final grade alone doesn't tell you how much improvement actually occurred. In this livestream, Graeme Matthews, PhD, explores how parents can look beyond headline A/A* claims and make a more informed decision about the academic support they choose for their teen. Here's what we cover: — Why A/A* promises need context — Why student selection criteria matter when evaluating academic results — The question parents rarely ask before enrolling their teen — Why testimonials and headline grades don't necessarily reveal the effectiveness of the underlying system — Why “Compared to what?” is one of the most useful questions a parent can ask — What parents should look for when evaluating A-Level academic support Because the real question isn't simply: “Do your students achieve A*s?” It's: “Where were those students when they started — and what changed?” At EmPowered STEM, we believe improvement should be measurable. That means understanding where a student is now, identifying why marks are being lost, and systematically addressing the factors preventing stronger exam performance. Because a promise means very little until you understand who that promise was made to. If your teen is entering Year 12 or Year 13 and you want to understand where they currently stand — and what may be preventing them from reaching A/A* performance — use the links above to learn more.
