Your Questions...  Answered.

How are sessions delivered?

Most tutoring sessions are conducted online using a secure, interactive platform that enables real-time communication between the tutor and student. It's as close as you can get to a face-to-face session, providing the convenience of learning from home without sacrificing the quality of interaction. With the additional use of interactive whiteboards and collaborative documents and tools, students get the best of both worlds having everything organised and available online whilst having the personalised 1:1 time with the tutor. If agreed by both parties, lessons or parts of lessons can also be recorded and stored on your personal portal for reference. This is sometimes useful or revision purposes.

For some students we know face to face tuition is a preferred option. A tutor will plan the lesson and create the resources to deliver in person either in a students home or agreed local community setting such as a Hwb.

All lessons, regardless of whether online or face to face will have been planned specifically for your child based on their needs and progress. For any student under the age of 18 it is a requirement in line with our Safeguarding Policy that an adult be present on the premises throughout the lesson. This is applicable for online lessons also.

How often are tutoring sessions and how long do they last? 

The frequency and duration of tutoring sessions can be tailored according to the student's needs. However, a typical schedule is one or two sessions per week, each lasting for 1 hour. For A Level and Degree students it is common to book longer sessions as more complex content is being explored. In the run up to exams it is also common to book additional sessions to work on exam technique as well as content. We aim to be as flexible as possible and will accommodate this into our tutors timetables wherever we can.
