From reasoning to reflection: developing critical thinkers.
The Issue
Many students entering further education, whether the IB, A-Levels, or university degrees later on, lack key cognitive skills required for academic success.
Higher education programmes demand analytical and logical reasoning skills, yet these are rarely developed systematically at earlier stages of schooling. As a result, many difficulties students encounter in mathematics or science in upper school are prematurely attributed to a lack of innate ability, with students labelled as “not mathematical” or “not made for it.” We believe this to be one of the most damaging aspects of the modern education system: students are boxed into simplistic categories of being “good” or “bad” at maths.
The system we entrust with developing our children prioritises rote memorisation for assessment over the cultivation of transferable cognitive skills. Consequently, students’ approaches to logical and analytical tasks in higher education depend largely on whether they have previously acquired a foundation in logical reasoning, skills that are not innate but learnable.
Research consistently indicates that logical reasoning skills are most effectively developed between the ages of 9 and 14. When children learn to think logically and algorithmically during this critical period, they approach the academic demands of A-Levels and university in a more confident, resilient, and intellectually healthy way.
Who We Are
We are two London School of Economics students that have lived through the struggles and problems of the education system. We know what it feels like to be outperformed by people that study way less in mathematical subjects and not knowing how this can be. Without the proper mindset and logical reasoning skills, your child will have to go through this the same way we did.
We are passionate about education and we believe in a healthier and more enjoyable way to go about mathematical subjects in higher education.
Both of us come from academic backgrounds in finance, philosophy, politics, and economics, and we share a strong interest in education that goes beyond rote learning. Both of us have completed the International Baccalaureate programme with scores of 42 and 43, and now attend the world-class London School of Economics. We have a total of 6 years of teaching experiences, ranging from working as a ski teacher to providing math support and leading foreign language classes. Our workshops are designed to be in-person, interactive sessions, using games, puzzles, and collaborative challenges to encourage children to think clearly, ask better questions, and enjoy solving problems.
Our Courses
This is our flagship course for children between the ages of 10-12. We offer an expertly crafted course in logical and analytical thinking, skills your child will be able to apply in a plethora of ways in GCSEs or A-level courses. Further to this, our group-based approach encourages team-based thinking, enhancing all students ability to work together towards a common goal.
The course is held over 3 months, with 2 lessons per week.
This more advanced course is intended to push already logically adept students to the new level. With 6th form level problems, the students will be well versed with the logical thinking required to excel in A-level maths and STEM courses, as well es further on in uni.
The course will be held over 3 months with 2 lessons per week.
These sessions are designed for students who benefit from individual attention or small, focused groups. Lessons are tailored to each student’s level, pace, and goals, allowing for rapid progress in both logical thinking and mathematics. Scheduling and pricing are fully on demand, giving families maximum flexibility. Feel to contact us to enquire more about this offering
Our ethos
Our ethos is grounded in creating a supportive, child-friendly learning environment where students feel safe to explore ideas, make mistakes, and develop confidence in their thinking. We believe that meaningful learning occurs when children are encouraged rather than pressured, and when curiosity is valued over performance. By fostering trust, structure, and intellectual openness, we help students engage with logical reasoning in a way that is accessible, age-appropriate, and genuinely empowering..
