PRIVATE TUTORS COVERING MATHS, ENGLISH, CHEMISTRY, GEOGRAPHY, AND MANY MORE SUBJECTS
Our goal is to put students on the right path, right from the outset. We want our students to fully understand the formula to successful learning. With our guidance, they will develop and build effective study habits that set them up for long-term success.
​
Our highly experienced tutors work primarily online, or within a short distance of their location. Contact them today to discuss availability.
Our approach to tutoring
Literature on educational development often dissects the term into four key concepts: self-efficacy, self-concept, growth mindset, and self-regulation. My doctoral work developed a method for modelling the dynamic interaction between these, and identifying which may act as a catalyst in different individuals. I constantly scan for issues which may be holding a student back (e.g. organisational skills, low perceived chance of success, etc.) and address these.
​
The wider goal of this is to create a well-rounded, organised, and resilient student with a genuine interest in their field rather than just a rote ability to regurgitate formulas/terminology they don’t thoroughly understand. Of course, how we achieve this varies from student to student. If we want our pupils to be flexible thinkers, it stands to reason that, as teachers, we must be flexible too in how deliver the course content. ​
One-to-one tuition
One of the great benefits of one-to-one tuition is the flexibility it affords tutors to vary the pace and difficulty of the content delivery, in a way that is most beneficial to each learner. By comparison, classroom learning requires a little more in the way of compromise, aiming for what is generally best for everyone and seeking to target students on an individual basis whenever there is an opportunity to do so.
​
For that reason, we recommend one-to-one tuition as being the gold standard when it comes to acquiring, and retaining, the knowledge one needs to succeed.
​
We provide one-to-one tuition online, as well as in person to those students who live local to the Henley-on-Thames area.
Eigenstate Tuition
The 'why' not 'what'
We want our students to see the bigger picture: the “why” instead of just the “what”.
Ours is a well-structured process that covers the syllabus in a logical order, enabling learners to build on and develop recent content, while always understanding the wider purpose of the learning.
Online tuition
More and more students are opting for online tuition nowadays, finding themselves just as comfortable conversing with their tutor online as they would in a physical, face-to-face setting.
Online communication apps such as Teams, Zoom and Skype allow for eye contact and body language to factor into tuition. Being online also allows us to share multiple resources rapidly.​
Local Tuition
Our highly skilled tutors are based primarily around Henley-on-Thames, Surrey, Windsor, and Cambridge. Though they predominantly work online, they may be able to travel to you if you're based locally to them. Contact our tutors today to discuss whether this is possible.
