Why use a private tutor?
With ever increasing class sizes and teachers under increasing pressures, many find that they simply don't have the same amount of time to spend with individual pupils as they once did. Children too are under constant pressure from assessments and SATs. For this reason, as a parent, you may feel that (no matter how good or dedicated your child's teacher is) your child either isn't being adequately supported or challenged.
The curriculum is covered rapidly and not all children grasp every aspect of a topic before it's time to move on. Without fully understanding the basics, learning gets more and more difficult as time goes on.

​
If this is how you feel, then a good tutor could be the answer. With private tuition, your child will be given one to one attention throughout the duration of their lessons, giving them the opportunity to ask questions and focus on specific areas of a subject they may need help with.
​
Due to the one to one nature of private tuition, a good tutor will quickly be able to identify which areas a pupil may need improvement in and suggest ways in which they can improve. By planning lessons in a fun and non-threatening environment, not only could your child's understanding improve, but their confidence will be given a much needed boost too.
