How can one-to-one tutoring help my child feel more confident?

A private tutor creates a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, tutors help build your child’s self-belief, which often has a positive impact on their schoolwork in general.

Is it just for core subjects like Maths, or can my child learn other skills?

While we have thousands of excellent tutors for core academic subjects, we also offer a huge range of other skills. You can find tutors for everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding and public speaking.

What happens in a typical tutoring session?

A session is tailored to your child's needs. It might start with a quick chat about what they've been doing in school that week. The tutor might then review homework, explain a tricky topic using the interactive whiteboard, or work through practice exam questions together.
