School Interview Preparation

Dukes Tutoring has proudly supported children over the past 15 years feel confident with their school interviews. 

Historically, schools conduct individual school interviews. However, increasingly schools are introducing group interviews too. Dukes Tutoring can help your child with both individual and group interview preparation.

Available for all age groups: 4+,7+, 8+, 9+, 10+, 11+, 13+, Sixth Form and University entrance. Our preparation work for school entrance interviews and our mock interviews give our students the confidence and skills they need to create a good impression in both individual and group interview situations.

Individual Interview Preparation

This preparation gives our students the confidence and skills they need to create a good impression. We explain the interview process, give examples of the questions that are asked and help the child consider how they would answer in ‘live’ conditions.

Depending on the school, the process can vary, but we provide top interview tips, helping the child understand that no answer is wrong, as long as it can be explained and is delivered with confidence. We look at the importance of voice projection and the dynamics of interacting with others in group interview situations. Our interview preparation also includes a mock English oral comprehension and questions based on a piece of art.

Interview preparation sessions last for an hour and parents are encouraged to attend too so they can practise some of the skills with their child after the session.

We also offer mock individual interviews each year, alongside mock group interviews. Have a look at our Upcoming Events page for more information.

Tania’s interview preparation session was super helpful as well. I had tried helping my son with interview preparations for at least 3 months prior to Tania’s interview preparation and honestly, I would say my son learned more from Tania’s 1.5 hours of interview preparation session than the hours of interview practices with me.
