English Tutor in Leighton Buzzard

What is your child's barrier to learning? This is my key question when helping your loved one become a successful learner. I have worked across primary schools for over 12 years in SEN and teaching to all age groups. Learning behaviour communicates a great deal about how your child feels about learning which dramatically impacts their approach and success. Building upon extensive, current experience and training, natural intuition & parenting two children with autism, I have constructed a successful, fun approach which first aims to understand your child as an individual, their motivations and their learning worries. In embracing those motivations and addressing learning worries, your child will then be free to learn happily and successfully. If your child has gaps in learning or has fallen behind, I will help them regain helpful thinking strategies, confidence and a love of learning!

I have over ten years' teaching experience at both secondary schools and colleges, specialising in English and English Literature. I have also worked as a tutor for small groups of students in addition to tutoring private students, usually to help towards GCSE exams, but also to boost learning within Key Stage 3 and 2. I am happy to teach either online or one-to-one. My teaching style is based around encouragement and coaching. I believe that everyone has the ability to learn, although not always at the same pace, which is why tutoring is so good for those lacking in confidence in the classroom.

I also have experience of teaching adults with learning difficulties such as dyslexia and social difficulties and have helped them attain Functional Skills qualifications and GCSE English.

Sheetal has worked with my daughter for a number of years and helped my daughter get into her chosen school. She achieved straight A's with hard work, consistent reliability, and knowing where my daughter had gaps in her learning. I couldn't recommend her enough for her dedication, knowledge and commitment. I definitely give her 10 out of 10, and anyone would be lucky to have her as a teacher/tutor. Ms N.s.

We couldn't be happier with the progress our son has made since starting his maths tutoring sessions with Gill. As a Year 2 student, he was struggling with confidence in maths, but thanks to Gill's fun, enthusiastic, and engaging approach, he now looks forward to his weekly sessions. Gill has a wonderful way of making learning enjoyable, and it's evident in the way our son's confidence has soared. We've seen a noticeable improvement in his skills and his attitude towards maths. Highly recommend Gill to any parent looking for a fantastic tutor! Mrs H Scott
English Tuition in Leighton Buzzard

We are incredibly grateful for the difference Gill has made in our daughter's education. After missing a significant amount of school, our daughter had several gaps in her maths knowledge and was feeling quite overwhelmed. Gill has been amazing at identifying and addressing these gaps with patience and enthusiasm. She makes each session engaging, which has not only helped our daughter catch up but also reignited her love for learning. Thanks to Gill's expertise and positive approach, our daughter now feels much more confident and prepared for her upcoming exams. We highly recommend Gill to any parent seeking a dedicated and effective tutor! D Wilmott

My daughter is really enjoying her GCSE revision lessons with Tiffani. She says Tiffani teaches her tips and tricks to help her learn, understand and remember maths. We have upped to two lessons a week and have never seen our daughter so happy to have a math lesson! Thank you Tiffani. Mrs Gaitskell

Tiffani has been tutoring our son in English for a few months and we are so happy with her teaching style and her lovely, friendly manner that brings out the best in our son. He looks forward to her lessons and never complains that it's tutor time! He has grown so much in confidence and is without doubt improving in the subject. We value Tiffani's input so much and we would definitely recommend her. Mrs Sullivan

Great tutor, helped my son immensely with his English as he had fallen woefully behind post covid. Now he's so much more confident in the subject thanks to Jeff! Mrs Chettra-mann
English Tuition in Chesham

My dughter is currenntly being tutored by Jeff through her A level in English Literature (aiming for A*). Jeff is a brilliant tutor, who is always well prepared for the lesson, thinking and planning ahead and open for questions from students and parents. What I (as a parent) like most is the fact that Jeff knows how to challenge my daughter so she can reach her potential. I was very impressed by the first lesson's assesment which Jeff prepared for her, (not taking my assesment for granted), and his detailed feedback. I truly recommend Jeff as a tutor. Mrs Kopacz

Location
Home Tuition: Involves an English tutor coming to your home in Leighton Buzzard to provide one-on-one instruction. This offers convenience as you don't need to travel. Online Tuition: This can take place anywhere with an internet connection. Small Group Tuition: Typically with between 2 to 4 children, and often occurs in a physical location such as your home, though it can also be online.

Individual Attention
Home Tuition: Offers the highest level of individual attention, as the English tutor focuses solely on one student. Online Tuition: Still allows for one-to-one attention, but it may be slightly less personal than home tuition due to potential distractions. Small Group Tuition: Offers less individual attention as the English tutor must divide their time and attention among multiple students.

Cost
Home Tuition: This tends to be more expensive because it involves one-on-one teaching, and the English tutor is required to travel to your home, in Leighton Buzzard. Online Tuition: Often more affordable than home tuition as your English tutor does not need to travel but may still cost more than small group tuition. Small Group Tuition: Generally, this is the most cost-effective option, as the costs are shared among several families.

Flexibility
Home Tuition: Offers flexibility in terms of scheduling and curriculum, as your English tutor will only be working with your child. Online Tuition: Provides flexibility in terms of location and may offer a wider selection of English tutors. Small Group Tuition: Lessons will be more difficult to schedule as lesson times will have to fit in with other families.

Interaction
Home Tuition: Offers in-person interaction, which can be beneficial for students who learn better through face-to-face communication. Online Tuition: Provides interaction through video conferencing tools and chat, which can be engaging but may not suit everyone's learning style. Small Group Tuition: Allows for peer interaction, which can benefit collaborative learning and discussions.

The choice between home, online, or small group English tuition in Leighton Buzzard depends on your preferences, budget, and the student's specific educational needs. Each option has advantages and disadvantages, so it's essential to consider these factors when deciding.
