Empowering pupils to reach their full academic potential.
At tutor lessons we pride ourselves on a professional approach to education, helping your child to gain the confidence and self-belief required to reach their academic potential. Every child can benefit from this style of teaching, whether it is for entrance exams, SATS, catchup or greater depth learning. The progress that can be made either with one to one tutoring is so much greater than in larger class sizes, using personalised lesson plans and targeted questioning.
The one-to-one and small group approach allows the teacher to identify and address specific areas in which your child might need extra support or clarification. According to the Education Endowment Fund (2021), the benefits of this type of tuition at primary level have the biggest impact, and can help pupils enjoy up to 4 months additional progress per year. By tailoring lessons to your child’s learning style, abilities and goals, your teacher can provide targeted guidance, reinforce foundational knowledge and help your child to take their learning to the next level.
With a qualified teacher, you get expertise, professionalism and a deep understanding of educational principles. Bringing a wealth of knowledge about learning and pedagogy, effective and up to date teaching methods and a commitment to your child’s academic success. You can feel confident that your child will be receiving the very best in tuition standards.
By Creating a safe and supportive learning environment, your child will foster a love of learning and will be confident to take risks and remain curious. Pupils are encouraged to ask questions in order to address misconceptions, which forms an essential part of any successful learning journey. This approach creates a growth mindset in pupils and allows them to tackle challenges with resilience and perseverance.
Give your child the best educational opportunities that they deserve with a personalised learning programme. Our lessons are based on plans adapted to your child’s unique learning style, which will increase their confidence in tackling new challenges and ensure that they achieve a deeper level of understanding. Lessons are based on up-to-date pedagogical research and include:
information retrieval based on previously learned knowledge, which helps to decrease the burden on the working memory and improves the likelihood of a successful educational outcome.
information taught in small steps so that the information is more likely to be understood and retained.
questions to check pupils’ understanding and to clarify misconceptions quickly.
modelling of worked examples.
opportunities for pupils to practice new subject matter.
