What is unique about 10ticks?

The 10ticks team have been producing quality maths resources for over 10 years.

The wealth of experience has allowed us to create a comprehensive bank of resources for parents to use in educating their children. Our materials are used in over 50% of secondary schools, so parents can feel confidence in the quality and relevance of our materials.

Written by Heads of Maths with over 100 years combined experience, you can rest assured that our materials, guides and tests will be of the highest standard. We aim to combine a unique mix of classroom style teaching with one-one tuition. And how do we do that? We use 10ticks courses based on the National Curriculum to ease children through topics. Each topic comprises a worksheet, that can be printed out, followed by an animated online guide with a test to finish. Scores are recorded inside the system to allow for analysis. Parents and children can see the areas in which certain skills are lacking, and in order to aid the process, the system automatically generates extras and revision based on the individual’s strengths and weaknesses.

A real benefit of our system is the worksheets. These worksheets come highly praised by parents and teachers having been used for several years in the teaching of key numeracy topics in the classroom. Now you can harness the power of these worksheets at home. We encourage the printing of worksheets, with the traditional pen and paper method of working out. This is the most effective way of learning and allows students to try out what they have learnt from out guides.

Students can access a progress summary detailing the level they are currently working at and their previous results. This is designed to encourage students to take account of their own performance, setting personal targets and goals. Students can also gain rewards in this area based on high performance to further encourage the setting of personal targets. This is also the method used in examinations and provides an effective means of revision.

We also offer a unique merit system on-site. Providing incentives can encourage students to reach and exceed personal targets. As such, we have created a unique merit system in which students can earn merits leading towards milestone certificates that can be printed and kept as a lasting record of achievement.

Should I hire a private maths tutor?

Private tuition can be an effective way to top up your child’s tuition, and can be a great one to one route to a better understanding and grasp of key topics. In that respect, we would always recommend private tuition as an effective route. However, private tuition can be expensive (as much as £50 an hour) and the availability of quality private tutors can be limited. For this reason, we have created the 10ticks Home Learning System.

Our system is as effective at translating key topics, and if far more convenient with 24/7 access to your work and support. When you consider that a 6 month subscription with 10ticks equates to the same price as only 3 hours with an average tutor, the efficiency of 10ticks becomes clear. Our system brings the same diagnostic support offered by tutors, providing feedback to parents on key areas. Students can gain comprehensive support in key topics by way of online guides, worksheets and tests, that they can refer back to again and again.

Does the 10ticks Home Learning System relate to the National Curriculum?

All of the 10ticks material - including our guides, worksheets and tests - has been developed to entirely cover the UK National Curriculum, ages 5-16.

As the parent of a school-attending child, this gives you the confidence that your child is learning key topics they will be using in school.
