How lessons work
- We start with the schools on your list, the tests they use and their dates, and work back from there.
- Reasoning question types are taught as methods first, because most children have never met them at school.
- Practice gradually moves to timed, exam style conditions, so the real thing feels familiar.

What parents say
The tutors have been outstanding, patient, professional, and deeply committed. I would wholeheartedly recommend Masani to any parent looking to see tangible improvement in their children's learning journey.
Since I started using this service, my child's performance has improved. The lesson teacher is good at what she does, and I have recommended their services to other parents and will continue to do so.
Our daughter gets excited to connect with her Masani tutor. Her attitude toward learning mathematics has changed completely. Her self-confidence has increased and she is eager to learn new concepts.
Frequently asked questions
What is the ISEB Common Pre Test?
An online, adaptive test many independent senior schools use to assess applicants, usually in Year 6 or 7. It covers English, maths, and verbal and non verbal reasoning.
What is 13+ Common Entrance?
Exams taken in Year 8 for entry to independent senior schools at 13, usually after a place has been offered conditionally. Schools set their own pass marks.
Can you help with school interviews too?
Yes. Teachers help your child practise talking about their interests, their reading and their reasons for choosing a school, so interviews feel like a conversation.
