I was a Home Tutor for both Maths and English GCSE at a local SEN school, having previously taught in both mainstream and private institutions across all ages.The role demanded innovation and understanding given the students faced challenges inclu...ding, but not limited to, anxiety, dyslexia, ASD and ADHD. I now work in conjunction with families whose children attend a vast range of schools but needing tutoring specifically tailored to their child's needs. A large concentration is given to reviving a flagging interest in the subjects and boosting self-belief and confidence. I also delight in teaching adults returning to studying.

Tuition with a qualified Languages teacher at your home costs from £46 ph. Online tuition with a qualified Languages teacher costs from £40 ph. Create your own small tuition group and Languages tuition costs from £17.50 ph.
Because we only ever work with qualified and experienced Languages teachers, you will always get a highly experienced teacher who is safe, reliable and up to speed with the current curriculum and exam requirements. There is no excellent learning without excellent teaching, and our Languages teachers are expected to teach in a way that inspires and motivates. We have over 20,000 talented teachers providing tuition, chosen for their broad range of experience, professionalism, academic specialisms, passion, and dedication to their students. We only ever offer qualified teachers as tutors, as we believe professional teachers provide the highest quality of tuition.
Location
Home Tuition: Involves a Languages tutor coming to your home to provide one-on-one instruction. This offers convenience as you don't need to travel.
Online Tuition: This can take place anywhere with an internet connection.
Small Group Tuition: Typically with between 2 to 4 children, and often occurs in a physical location such as your home, though it can also be online.
Individual Attention
Home Tuition: Offers the highest level of individual attention, as the Languages tutor focuses solely on one student. Online Tuition: Still allows for one-to-one attention, but it may be slightly less personal than home tuition due to potential distractions. Small Group Tuition: Offers less individual attention as the Languages tutor must divide their time and attention among multiple students.
Cost
Home Tuition: This tends to be more expensive because it involves one-on-one teaching, and the Languages tutor is required to travel to your home.
Online Tuition: Often more affordable than home tuition as your Languages tutor does not need to travel but may still cost more than small group tuition.
Small Group Tuition: Generally, this is the most cost-effective option, as the costs are shared among several families.
Flexibility
Home Tuition: Offers flexibility in terms of scheduling and curriculum, as your Languages tutor will only be working with your child.
Online Tuition: Provides flexibility in terms of location and may offer a wider selection of Languages tutors.
Small Group Tuition: Lessons will be more difficult to schedule as lesson times will have to fit in with other families.
Interaction
Home Tuition: Offers in-person interaction, which can be beneficial for students who learn better through face-to-face communication.
Online Tuition: Provides interaction through video conferencing tools and chat, which can be engaging but may not suit everyone's learning style.
Small Group Tuition: Allows for peer interaction, which can benefit collaborative learning and discussions.
The choice between home, online, or small group Languages tuition depends on your preferences, budget, and the student's specific educational needs. Each option has advantages and disadvantages, so it's essential to consider these factors when deciding.
