Moon Zhu, founder of Moon Tuition and former tutor of Olympiad Maths competitions in China, has truly built her company from the ground up and with great success, beginning with small classes gathered around her living room table. Her first student, her son Tom, who won a myriad of scholarships at the prestigious Harrow School before securing his place at Harvard University and the University of Cambridge to read Economics, led the way for a long line of students who have gone on to gain entry to the best schools in the world – a fact that Moon takes great pride in. Moon Tuition has come a long way since 2009. Moon’s skill in nurturing students through their exams and classes to achieve exceptional results quickly gained her a reputation amongst students and their parents, leading to greater uptake in her offering. Eventually, Moon had to expand her business and opened Moon Tuition’s first centre in Reading. While the number of tuition service providers has exploded in the last decade, few are able to match Moon Tuition in its offering that includes teaching by more than 30 of the best teachers and teaching assistants in the UK and beyond, advice from admissions consultants and staff from the best universities and colleges, and a unique and proven teaching style. Moon has combined the rigour of the coaching methods she employed during her time in China and Most Educational Tuition Service Provider - Berkshire Aug21298 the personalisation and collaboration she has encountered in the British education system to create ‘The Moon Method’. The Moon Method has helped thousands of children gain confidence in their academic studies and realise their full potential, thereby gaining entry into celebrated institutions like Eton College, Harrow School, Winchester College, Westminster , St Paul’s and Wycombe Abbey and laying the foundations that see them secure places at top universities like Cambridge, Oxford, and Harvard. Yet testaments to the success of Moon Tuition come in all forms. For example, one of Moon’s students, Nathan, who came to Moon Tuition aged four and soon proved himself to be a quick and keen learner, stole the hearts of the nation in Channel 4’s ‘The Secret Life of Five Year Olds’. Nathan wowed audiences as he taught the other children tricky multiplication sums, demonstrating all that he had learnt with the help of Moon Tuition. Meanwhile, parents are also happy to sing the praises of Moon Tuition, having seen remarkable results in their children. One mother, Suzanne Steer, said of her daughter: ‘Since she began two years ago, she has become one of the top six students [in her entrance exams]. She has transformed as a person, widening her horizons and experiences. Moon is priceless. Thank you for changing her life.’ Moon Tuition’s reputation for excellence has grown at such a rate that it has now been working with the British Independent Schools Exam Board ISEB and some top British schools to be invigilators for their 11+ , 13+ and 16+ exams. Now present in three countries and having supported thousands of students through their education, Moon Tuition is showing no signs of slowing down. Expanding its expertise into other areas such as admissions testing, online lessons and producing study materials – Moon Tuition’s primary resources are now written by Moon or her team of teachers – the organisation is also adapting to accommodate the rise of remote studying and benefiting from technological abilities to enhance the learning experience. This has also enabled Moon Tuition to reach even more students around the world, from China to America to Canada to Australia to Germany to Dubai to Singapore and beyond.

It is this drive to provide as many children as possible with the tools they need to succeed that has earnt Moon Tuition the title of Most Educational Tuition Service Provider – Berkshire at the Southern Enterprise Awards 2021.
