STUDENT
PATHWAYS
University Mentorship
Our Pathways are designed to provide both inspiration and direction to students. At Avernus Education we work in collaboration with students and parents to help our young learners in their educational pathway, no matter what phase of their journey they are currently in. We provide clarity and guidance to students in order to help them identify a goal, to support them in decision making, to develop a road-map of where they are heading in the future, and above all to foster and further their passion.
A Competitive Advantage
Whether students are aiming for successful admission to UK universities, or whether they are simply interested in developing their world view and discovering what's out there, our Mentorship Pathways are designed to do just that. We inspire students to discover a passion, further their ambitions, and guide them on their pathway to success. We provide students with the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to excel in their studies and achieve their academic goals.
Personalised Student Pathways
At Avernus Education we believe every student is able to Get The Edge and Advance if they get the right advice. Our core mission is to empower students to reach their full potential by providing them with the tools and support they need to succeed in a highly competitive academic environment. Our mentorship model sees students receive individualised support in every aspect of their journey, no matter their age, from initial consultation to reaching their goal. We create a personalised pathway for each individual - from extra-curricular mentoring, bespoke school guidance and subject exploration, to university selection strategy, test preparation and knowledge enhancement.
