What is the true cost of hiring a tutor? A Guide to Cost and Pricing (Click here to go straight to the bottom of this page for our fee structure) Investment in education and training is an investment for life with long-term benefits. If anything like us, you may still be undertaking training courses CPD opportunities yourself! So, as you consider employing our services, this cost and pricing guide will help you develop an initial budget and plan for your child's learning journey. If you have done even a tiny bit of research, you will know the true cost of getting a tutor can vary depending on several factors such as: - the tutor's experience and qualifications, - the subject matter/specialist area - the level of qualification, - the duration of the sessions, - the location, - the type of 'program' - the delivery method - the frequency of the sessions. There are lot's of options when it comes to additional support, all with pro's and con's which depend on your own personal requirements and budget. Although a 1:1 tutor, who can provide personalised tuition and tailor a unique learning pathway is the preferred solution for most people, the costs can vary massively. Typically, qualified tutors usually charge between £30 - £90 (note I haven't put per hour as although most tutors do 1 hour sessions with the student, the price you pay also includes additional costs for example: time planning, preparing resources and travel where applicable) So what are your options? - Tuition Companies: Personally matching vetted tutors with students, with you for the whole journey, providing support to parents, students and tutors to ensure continuous standards of provision and most effective use of time, Can sometimes be slightly more expensive due to the additional service and peace of mind that everything is taken care of for you. Many tutors choose to work through companies to streamline their services and have all the administration, marketing, legal obligations and payment processing taken care of. - Tuition Agencies: A directory of tutors, anyone can list themselves as a tutor and it's up to you to pick who you think is suitable and carry out checks to validate them. Many tutors offer a free trial lesson which can be a positive but could also waste valuable time if you need to have 5 or 6 unproductive free trials to find the right tutor. Tutors set their own rates which can be anything from £10 - £90 depending on their experience although this is up to you to verify. (remember, if something looks too cheap, there is often a reason for it). Agencies can charge tutors anything from 10% - 30% of their income through their sites. - Study Guides, Revision Books: A very cost effective and convenient option. An excellent revision tool but provide only a superficial understanding of topics. They also require students to be very self-motivated and independent learners. Usually between £5 - £30, there is a wide selection to accommodate different exam boards, literary works and skills. - Local study centres: These vary greatly in type of provision and cost too. Some have qualified staff delivering high quality personalised tuition to small groups, others have unqualified staff overseeing students working through a computer program. The costs of these vary considerably between £30 and £400 per month (usually payable in advance and regardless of whether you can make the sessions or not) so please ensure you research them individually to make sure it's right for your child and that you can get them to the centre regularly. - Online courses / programs: Very convenient but often very costly and will cover the whole course, ideal if this is your only method of study as most come with online tutor support. Some may come with accreditation but any statutory exams will still need to be sat as an independent student in a registered centre. Not an effective use of time or money if you need to plug gaps in learning or need to know where your gaps in knowledge are, although some courses do allow you to flick back and forth to individual lessons, allowing you more control over your learning pathway. and rate of progress. There are so many variations and options, ensure you check that the provision is right for your child, if necessary, check with your child's teacher to ask for advice as to whether it's worth investing in. - Free online resources: They are FREE! (we all love free stuff right?) Lot's of the exam boards have some great resources and past papers on their websites now, however, unless you are very specific and know where your gaps in knowledge are a you can waste a lot of time and energy searching for internet for the right resources (many of which are very poor quality and not targeted to what you need). Do speak to your child's school as they may already be paying for systems which your child can access for free outside of school and in addition to homework (they may also be providing lunch, or after school clubs which your child has forgot to mention to you). Ultimately, your decision will depend on your child's individual needs, their learning style, your personal circumstances, time available to co-ordinate everything yourself, ability to travel, access to the internet, other commitments and your budget. The above options range from an investment of a few £'s to £1000's, so when thinking of the true cost of a tutor it is important to be clear about what you want so you can effectively use both time and money to maximise timely results. Here is a summarised comparison table which may help in your decision making. Our Tuition Fees With Making the Grade you can be sure your child's tuition is in good hands, from initial assessment throughout their learning journey, everything is taken care of for you.

Small Group Online Tuition We understand that different students have varying preferences and learning styles, so in addition to our 1:1 online tuition, we offer small group tuition where students can benefit from collaborative learning in a supportive environment. Although 1:1 is hugely effective, small group tuition can be equally as beneficial for some students whilst keeping the costs down for parents. As with all our advice and guidance, this page outlines some of the benefits and drawbacks to group tuition and is here to assist you in making an informed decision for your child's educational needs. Please contact us and have a chat if you have any questions or wish to discuss your child's individual requirements. Benefits of Group Tuition Collaboration and Peer Learning: Small group tuition provides students with the opportunity to collaborate with their peers and engage in interactive learning experiences. Working alongside others who share similar academic goals can foster a supportive and motivating environment. Students can learn from one another, exchange ideas, and develop teamwork and communication skills. Enhanced Engagement and Participation: In small group settings, students often feel more comfortable actively participating in discussions and activities. The smaller class size allows for increased interaction with the tutor, promoting a higher level of engagement. Students can ask questions, share their thoughts, and benefit from personalized attention while still benefiting from the social dynamics of a group. Different Perspectives and Ideas: When students come together in a small group, they bring different perspectives, backgrounds, and experiences. This diversity of ideas can enrich the learning process, exposing students to various viewpoints and approaches to problem-solving. It encourages critical thinking and expands their understanding of the subject matter. Cost-Effective Option: Compared to 1:1 tuition, small group tuition can be a more cost-effective option for parents. By sharing the session cost among a small number of students, the overall expense per student is reduced while still providing high-quality instruction. This makes small group tuition an attractive choice for families seeking personalized attention within a budget. Whilst Group Tuition is a suitable option for some students it does have it's drawbacks for others. Reduced In dividual Attention: In small group tuition, the tutor's attention is divided among multiple students. While tutors strive to provide individualised support, it may not be as extensive as in 1:1 tuition. Students may receive slightly less one-on-one time with the tutor, which could impact their ability to address specific learning needs or challenges. Differences in Pacing and Learning Styles: Students within a small group may have varying learning paces and styles. This diversity can create challenges in terms of accommodating individual needs and preferences. Our groups are carefully constructed to ensure all students are working at the same level and Tutors strive to strike a balance to ensure the material is covered effectively and tailored to the group's collective understanding. Group Dynamics: Small group tuition relies on positive group dynamics for optimal effectiveness. While collaboration is encouraged, occasionally, group dynamics may hinder the learning process. Conflicting personalities or different levels of participation can impact the overall experience. We aim to prevent this as much as possible and Tutors play a crucial role in managing and fostering a harmonious learning environment. Limited Flexibility: Small group tuition follows a strict schedule which may limit flexibility for students with busy schedules or varying commitments. Unlike 1:1 tuition, if a student is unable to attend the lesson will still take place and cannot be rescheduled. Book a FREE Consultation

Your Questions... Answered. How do you handle students with learning differences or special needs? We're committed to inclusive education and have tutors who are trained in working with students with a variety of learning differences and special needs. Many tutors have experience of dealing with a variety of learning needs in school settings and 1:1 tutoring, they use tailored teaching strategies and resources to cater to these students' unique learning styles and ensure they have a supportive and effective learning experience. The process of assessment during the enrolment will allow us to assess your child's individual needs and if for any reason we don't feel we are able to accommodate your child's needs we will certainly do our best to connect you with a person or company that can.

Your Questions... Answered. Are all of your tutors qualified teachers? No. All of our tutors are highly qualified in their respective subjects. Most have teaching qualifications and many have Master's or Doctorate degrees. Importantly, they all have experience in teaching and tutoring, ensuring that they can effectively impart knowledge to our students. Making the Grade is not an agency that allows tutors to simply sign up and offer their services, we are a business, which interviews, vets and chooses our tutors carefully. The industry is still unregulated so it's important to us to be able to provide a quality of service which you can rely on. We choose our tutors based on a number of factors, not just their qualifications, because every child is unique and what is the right support for one child may be very different for another. There are extremely good tutors who do not hold a teaching qualification just as there are substandard qualified teachers, which is why our processes are in place to ensure you are getting the right tutor first time without wasting valuable time or money.

Your Questions... Answered. Do you provide 1:1 or Group Tuition? Most of our tuition is 1:1 although from time to time places do become available in our groups or we may create new groups periodically throughout the year. Please let us know if you are looking for group tuition and we will keep you informed of new enrolment dates and waiting list times. Our group tuition is focused on Key Stages 2, 3 and 4 in English, Maths and Science. Students will still be assessed to ascertain their suitability for a group; groups are not created on the age of the child but the level at which they are working at to ensure the most suitable provision.

Your Questions... Answered. How can I tell if it's what my child needs? We carry out an initial assessment meeting which helps us understand your child individual needs and match the right support for them. You can also take our online ass essment before booking a meeting. We also carry out regular reviews and provide individual lesson plans to enable you to also track progress. You will have a designated educational consultant who will be liaising with the tutor and is available for your support whenever needed. If we have any concerns over whether tuition is right for your child we will speak with you directly. You can also look at our pricing page which has a handy comparison chart for you to evaluate your options. P ricing | Making The Grade (making-the-grade.co.uk

Your Questions... Answered. Can parents communicate directly with the tutors? Absolutely! Once your tutor has been assigned, they will be your main contact. We encourage open communication between parents and tutors as this not only builds strong positive relationships which are good for your child's progress, but also helps ensure that everyone is on the same page about the student's goals, progress, and any areas of concern.
