<\/p>\n

FRIENDS Jora Singh and Vikram Puri have aspirations to be a doctor and accountant \u2013 and they\u2019re well on their way after securing\u00a0grade A\u00a0Maths GCSE\u2019s aged just 11 and 13.<\/strong> <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

The youngsters can count their success down to hard work, support from their families and help they received from Wolverhampton learning centre Helping Hands Tuition. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Set up in September last year, the private tuition company has supported more than 100 students achieve a multitude of successes. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

And two of those students, Jora and Vikram, are on a path to bigger and better things thanks to the support and guidance they received from the centre\u2019s fully qualified and experienced tutors. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Jora, 11, admits he was nervous about receiving his grade, but a brilliant A pass in Maths GCSE made all the hard work worth while. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cI was really nervous about getting my result but I\u2019m glad I don\u2019t have to think about it anymore and I\u2019m really happy with my pass,\u201d he told The Asian Today. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Jora hopes his pass will give him more to scream and shout about \u2013 he\u2019s hoping his proud parents will buy him a drum kit after they promised him a present as a result of his hard work. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

For Vikram, his grade A pass is testament to the belief and confidence shown in him by his uncle. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cMy uncle, Mr Puri, has always been a big push for me,\u201d the 13-year-old says.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s always pushed me to do well, explaining how studying hard will help me in the future and will be a positive benefit for me.\u201d<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

With their passes achieved, the two teens will look to add even more as they continue on their education paths. And they\u2019ve even laid down plans for future careers. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cMy granddad wants me to become a doctor and it\u2019s something I\u2019m really interested in,\u201d says Jora, while for Vikram he\u2019s hoping to use his Maths GCSE to good use. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\u201cI want to become an accountant,\u201d he admits. <\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

Vinay Puri, from Helping Hands Tuition said: \u201cWe are extremely proud of all our students who have achieved so much throughout the past year in these difficult times. \u201cI would like to thank all the teachers at Helping Hands Tuition for their hard work and commitment to helping children learn, excel and achieve.<\/div>\n
