£0 ph Face-to-Face Tuition

I consent to the storage of my data.

The cost of a University Entrance tutor in Dorking can vary depending on several factors, such as qualifications, experience, and whether Face-to-Face or Online. Private University Entrance tutors in Dorking may cost anywhere from £15 to £60 per hour. A qualified teacher in Dorking from Teachers To Your Home, will range from £17.50 per hour for online group tuition, to £50 for Face-to-Face A Level University Entrance Tuition in Dorking.

Face-to-face tuition in Dorking allows for direct interaction and personalized attention from the University Entrance tutor. It provides a more structured learning environment and can help students stay more motivated and focused. On the other hand, online tuition offers more flexibility in terms of scheduling and location. Students can access University Entrance tutoring from anywhere and online sessions can be recorded for future reference. Online tuition also tends to be more affordable and can offer a wider range of University Entrance tutors and subjects. Ultimately, the best choice depends on the individual student's needs and preferences. Younger or SEN students may benefit more from face-to-face tuition, while older students may prefer the convenience and flexibility of online tuition.

Group University Entrance tutoring provides a supportive environment where students can work together, learn from one another and engage in collaborative problem-solving. It provides students with a variety of perspectives and ideas, which can lead to a deeper understanding of the subject matter. Being in a group allows students to work together, communicate effectively, and develop teamwork skills. Group University Entrance tutoring is often less expensive than one-on-one University Entrance tutoring, making it more accessible for students who need extra help.

Not every child in Dorking needs a University Entrance tutor, but there are many scenarios where tuition will be beneficial. The obvious is if a child is not attending school for whatever reason. If they are at school, a University Entrance tutor may be needed to stop a student from falling behind, which can lead to disillusionment and behavioural issues; or to get back on track after a poor end-of-year exam result. If a specific learning difficulty or Special Educational Need (SEN) is identified, then University Entrance Tuition in Dorking can provide a vital reinforcement. For high stakes exams, such as 11+, Common Entrance (often 13+) for schools in Dorking, GCSE and A-Level or IB, tuition can provide that final boost to get over the line, the stretch to reach the top grades required for the next stage of education, or assistance with specific exam techniques that may not be taught at school.
