The learning formula for success. Built by 2 PhD scientists.
Our PhD co-founders personally oversee and plan all teaching content, exams and revision materials - fully aligned to the National Curriculum, tried, tested and designed to give every student a genuine academic advantage.
No other UK tuition provider is built like this. Not one.
The tuition industry runs on marketplaces. A company at the top, freelance tutors at the bottom, and bought-in materials in between. Sterling Study is structurally different. The people who founded it are the same people who design what every student learns.
Generic worksheet packs and past papers produced by third parties. Your child gets what everyone else gets.
Every assessment, worksheet and marking scheme is planned by two PhD scientists and built around the National Curriculum, so students are always working towards the right goals for their year group.
Dr Igors teaches weekly. Dr Parth runs special masterclasses and regular parent seminars. Students and families are led directly by the people who built the programme.
When the designers are also the teachers, the feedback loop closes completely.
Test data informs lesson planning. Lesson planning informs assessment design. Every resource improves every month. This is structurally impossible when tutors and materials are sourced from different places.
Dr Parth grew up in East London state schools and went on to Imperial, the Francis Crick Institute and a PhD and research role at UCL. That journey from local classrooms to world-class institutions is exactly what Sterling Study is designed to help students achieve.
Dr Parth runs exclusive sessions on advanced topics and exam strategy for Sterling Study students.
Dr Parth holds regular sessions with parents, sharing what the data shows and exactly how they can support their child's progress at home.
Dr Igors designs the science curriculum from first principles so students can work out unseen problems rather than recall answers. He personally teaches weekly live classes, meaning students benefit from his expertise directly every week.
Students learn directly from Dr Igors every single week.
From East London to the World's Top Research Institutions
Dr Parth's journey, from East London state schools to Imperial, the Francis Crick Institute and a PhD at UCL, is one of the reasons Sterling Study is built the way it is.
How Sterling Study Compares
Most UK tuition platforms connect students with freelance tutors using third-party materials and no academic leadership. Here is what the data shows when a PhD scientist leads from the front.
