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.

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.
