At Discover Learning, we’re passionate about delivering transformative education rooted in research and results. One of the core strategies we use to empower our students is peer tutoring—a proven method that encourages students to support one another’s learning through structured collaboration, repetition, and real-time feedback. Backed by over four decades of research and now validated by a robust meta-analysis involving 938 students from Grades 1–12, peer tutoring is more than a classroom technique—it’s a powerful, student-centered learning experience.

Our Vision

To nurture confident, capable, and curious learners who excel academically and thrive personally.
We believe every child has potential. Our job is to help unlock it by creating a supportive environment where students feel safe, challenged, and inspired to learn.

Our Mission

To provide high-quality, individualized and small-group instruction using evidence-based methods and passionate educators—fostering a lifelong love of learning in a supportive, inclusive environment.
Our teaching isn’t about memorization or shortcuts. It’s about building deep understanding, strong foundations, and the self-belief needed to take on challenges in and out of the classroom.

What Makes Discover Learning Different?

1. We’re Evidence-Based
   Our teaching methods are grounded in proven research. Peer tutoring is just one example—others include Visible Learning strategies, formative assessment practices, and structured feedback. We don’t guess what works. We implement what’s been shown to have impact.
2. Only Qualified Teachers
   Every educator at Discover Learning is a certified teacher, often with international or British curriculum experience. This means higher-quality instruction and a deeper understanding of curriculum demands.
3. Tailored, Not One-Size-Fits-All
   We adapt every lesson to suit individual learning styles and needs. Whether your child is struggling with fractions, decoding a poem, or preparing for university entrance, we craft a learning plan that meets them where they are.
4. Small Group Sizes for Maximum Impact
   Group sessions never exceed five students. This ensures a balance between personalized attention and collaborative learning—creating opportunities for peer tutoring, healthy academic discussion, and social interaction.

   • High-achieving students who need challenge
   • Students with learning difficulties or special educational needs
   • English language learners
   • Children with behavioral or motivational challenges

Peer Tutoring in Action at Discover Learning

The recent meta-analysis confirms what we see in our classrooms daily: peer tutoring boosts academic achievement across all student groups and subject areas. With an overall effect size of 0.75—a strong and meaningful gain—peer tutoring helps students:

• Reinforce key concepts through repetition
• Gain immediate feedback from a peer
• Improve confidence by becoming the “expert”
• Engage in active, social learning

At Discover Learning, we integrate peer tutoring into many of our group sessions and holiday programs. Whether it’s an older student guiding a younger one through algebra, or a classmate helping explain a science experiment, this interaction encourages deeper learning, collaboration, and shared responsibility.

Why It Matters

In an age of competitive exams, pressure, and screen fatigue, Discover Learning offers something different: human connection through learning. We believe the best education happens not just when a child listens—but when they speak, ask, teach, and reflect. Peer tutoring allows all of that to happen naturally, in an environment that is structured, caring, and backed by evidence.

The Discover Learning Promise

We promise to:

• Teach with passion and purpose
• Use only proven methods
• Treat every student as an individual
• Support both academic and personal growth
• Work in partnership with families

Whether your child needs to catch up, move ahead, or discover a love for learning they’ve never had before, Discover Learning is ready to support them every step of the way.
