In order to proceed with Norris Education’s services, for security purposes the Client must provide at least two methods of contact (one telephone number, and one email address). Norris Education is unable to provide a Tutor without these methods of contact. There are to be no exceptions to this request.

Assessment fees can vary depending on which assessment is conducted. A written report will be provided in addition to one- to-one feedback with the Client.
