Hello! I am in Year 6. I am starting at Wilson’s in September. It’s a no brainer! If you want your child to pass the 11+, why wouldn’t you let them attend Mrs Glasson and Mr Cracknell’s masterclasses? I was so lucky that Mrs Glasson was my teacher. She made me the top of my class and love English. Maths was my best subject before, but now it is English. Mr Cracknell was my sister’s teacher at Nonsuch. Mr Cracknell’s Sutton test was amazing and exactly like the Stage 1 exam. All the Stage 2 tips were helpful, and I found it helpful the way they set writing tasks from the Mock Test 2,3,4 resources. The comprehension about the train was very exciting and I liked the ideas about the writing tasks. I completed all the writing tasks after the lesson. Come on, everyone, what are you waiting for? These two are the best teachers if you want to pass the 11+! I passed the exams of QE, St Olave’s, Wilson’s, Dulwich and KCS.

I recommend all parents to give these chances to their kids. They bring together all the learning and things that only such famous grammar school teachers know. My daughter left the classes happy. Mr Cracknell taught me a long time ago. He is a legend. I already knew what an excellent teacher he is. I was proud that my daughter did my teacher’s tests and will be starting at my old school. She still carries her Wonderful Words Workbook to school every day, and her teachers are impressed with her writing and her vocabulary. Thank you to Mrs Glasson and Mr Cracknell. You’re still a legend! Sapere aude!

The masterclasses were a gift! They are the final way that Mrs Glasson helped us on our 11+ journey. We completed Mrs Glasson’s Revision Course which was an asset to our home learning. I don’t think we could have done it without that course. It taught me too, how to help the twins. I was worried that we would be behind as we could not have tuition. We did not need to worry because the pre-recorded Revision Course was so advanced. It felt like Mrs Glasson was with us. Also, the Wonderful Words workbook improved our vocabulary by teaching new words and so many other things about English. My children loved learning from Mrs Glasson. For us, the masterclasses were a great way to finish our revision and ask questions that only examiners can answer. Parents were able to ask questions and gain reassurance too from these two amazing teachers. Mr Cracknell reminded me of my university professors. You can see why he is so respected. I am overjoyed to say that my children will be starting QE and HBS. If anyone is unsure, I would say join the pre-recorded Revision Course, use the workbook and definitely go to the masterclasses. Thank you, Mrs Glasson. We owe you so much!

Mock Tests 2,3,4 were fantastic, and these two masterclasses are the perfect way to continue the learning and finish our journey. I am a primary school teacher and I respect Mrs Glasson and Mr Cracknell totally and appreciate the way they teach. For example, the way the MT2,3,4 resources are used is so clever. The students already know the extracts and the basics from the lessons they took after the tests. The tests themselves are brilliant for learning too. In the masterclasses, Mrs Glasson and Mr Cracknell made the most of what the students already knew and taught them so many things of note. We both enjoyed the masterclasses. My son will be following his brother to KEGs in September. Thank you, teachers!

Thank you for these masterclasses which were so helpful! We are grateful and we will miss your teaching. We will watch your podcasts and videos and remember you. All the best. You are a great teacher. Mr Cracknell’s Sutton Mock Test 4 and the new comprehension were excellent. My daughter is going to Wallington High School. Very excited to join her sister who was also Mrs Glasson’s student. My other daughter took Mr Cracknell’s Sutton Stage 1 and 2 11+ exams which he had written. It was amazing to finally meet such a well-known Sutton teacher. Thoroughly recommended.

The first and second masterclasses complimented each other. The way the Mock Test 2,3,4 resources were used was a great idea. I am a teacher and it was like a whole scheme of work - starting with Mock Test 2 - that had been planned and delivered. Only great teachers can do that. It was learning for me too! My son passed the tests of KCS, Westminster and Wilson’s. Your masterclasses made all the difference to his confidence and motivation. They were really helpful to me too. It is so different when you speak to teachers who are so knowledgeable. You know you are in the presence of great educators. You deserve your reputation as experts. Thank you for everything. We are indebted to you both.

I enjoyed Mr Cracknell’s comprehension. It was difficult but great practice so close to the exams. I did the writing tasks too. My brother is there. We both took the 11+ Revision Course and Wonderful Words from Mrs Glasson. I am looking forward to starting at Tiffin School. Thank you for helping with your masterclasses and everything else. You are my favourite teachers. Please teach me again, Mr Cracknell and Mrs Glasson!

I loved the masterclasses so helpful. I was anxious about the test, but they helped me to be less stressed. It was great to discuss ideas and plans. I took lots of notes and learnt so much from the teachers, who were funny and kind. My mum and dad asked questions. I enjoyed the comprehension and the mock tests because they were difficult and made me concentrate. I am joining Sutton Grammar School in September. Keep Faith, Mrs Glasson and Mr Cracknell!
