Why be tutored?
-
One-to-one support to boost grades
Even in the smallest classes your teacher won't be able to help you all the time. Tutoring is one-to-one, meaning every minute is focussed on what you need to learn. -
Confidence and peace of mind
Your GCSE or A-levels grade is riding on one single-set of exams at the end of two years. Tutoring gives confidence you've made the investment you can, when you can. -
Enjoy it
Don't be constrained by what's on the exam specification or National Curriculum. With tutoring you can reach farther, looking at content in the next step, be that A-levels after GCSEs or degree level or a work opportunity.

Qualified teacher
I was trained, qualified and am teaching at an outstanding secondary school. Many online tutors are university students who may have subject knowledge but have not been trained in how to teach and aren't equipped to improve your performance. improve your study skills as well as subject knowledge. Reviewing the quality of your notes, and making sure you're spending your study time in the smartest way.

Advice and support for parents/carers
I also offer tutor-sessions with parents who want to know - "how can I help my child succeed?" - giving you clarity on what kind of independent practice you should expect from your child- and how to encourage them to achieve it.
