OUR MOTIVATION: One of the biggest gaps in social mobility to children, teenagers and adults, especially those from low social economic background is the lack of skills, knowledge and opportunities to unlock their talents and realise their full potential. For example, when a student does not have the required GCSE/A-LEVEL grades in Maths, English or IT and a mentor to provide guidance and support, he or she may find it challenging to secure an admission at his/her college, university of choice or an apprenticeship.
Therefore, that student or individual cannot achieve his/her goal to move to the next academic level or to earn,
learn and acquire lifelong employable skills - critical in facilitating his/her movement from a lower to a higher social-economic level. Hence, social mobility can only become a reality when these gaps in knowledge, skill and social capital are closed. Therefore, at A&F Tutors, our goal is to close these knowledge, skills and mentoring gaps through our private tutoring and mentoring services; with the goal of making a positive and lasting presence to the knowledge, skills, prospects and life of the child, teenager, adult or professional [be it academic, professional or personal.
Research studies by the Equality Trust shows that children of highly paid people are more likely to be highly paid and children of low paid people more likely to be low earners. Also, these findings reveal strong evidence that education is a strong driver of social mobility.

"I would highly recommend Aloysius as a mentor. His ability to pinpoint my skills gave me the confidence to go after the role I wanted in order to kick start my career as a PA. From day one, he showed me the strategies I needed. He mentored me on a regular basis on how to plan life on subjects such as career, to financial structuring. Thanks to Mr. Fontama's support in preparing interviews with mock interviews and motivation, CV writing, I have recently secured my dream role, which is something I could never envisioned it without his help."
