Reviews for tutors in Amersham

5.0

Sanna was a incredible help with my daughter. She was struggling with maths. Sanna helped her gain back her confidence and challenged her. Mrs Burrow

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

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

Alan provided French tuition to my son weekly for a year before his A level. He was aspiring to study languages at university and aiming high but having taken his GCSE a year early and in lockdown he lacked confidence and was considerably behind where he needed to be. Alan worked very hard with him and helped to grow his confidence and ability so that he was able to score 89% at A level, just 0.25% off an A*. We were all delighted with this result and my son secured his place to read languages at Bristol. Alan was a great source of advice on ways to develop language skills outside the curriculum and also gave my son valuable insight on how he could use his languages in future careers. He was supportive and communicative at all times and was clearly invested in my son's success. I would recommend him wholeheartedly. Mrs Morrison

Alan is an outstanding German tutor. His deep passion for the language and knowledge of German culture is evident, adding nuance to the subject whilst teaching. His enthusiasm for German is infectious, making every lesson I had engaging and inspiring. He brings complex grammar to life and tailored his approach to help me navigate the more challenging concepts. He not only taught the German required for the syllabus but went above and beyond in supporting me, even exploring different German opportunities as a career. Alan's compassion sets him apart. He is always patient and willing to go the extra mile to help me. No question was too small, and he was genuinely invested in my success, even contacting me after exams and results to ask how they went. His flexibility was equally impressive, accommodating schedules and adjusting lessons to focus on areas where help was most needed. Alan's ability to make learning both fun and accessible has helped me make tremendous progress in German, and I couldn't recommend him more highly. Student -17 years old Ms Cresswell

Hannah Roberts is really kind, caring and patient. M Williams

I would like to recommend Concetta as an Italian teacher. I have been having lessons with Concetta for almost 2 years. I really enjoy my lessons, and they are structured around learning grammar, reading and conversation. Concetta is an enthusiastic and encouraging teacher, and I have recently managed to achieve an A* in my GCSE, all with her help. I am now looking forward to increasing my fluency. Hannah Cowling
Amersham

Concetta is an excellent language teacher, being a native Italian. Her knowledge of English is superb and she is therefore able to make herself easily understood. She can teach Italian as spoken by the Italians. Carol Clark

How are Amersham schools performing?

We connect you to the best teachers who work across several of the best primary and secondary schools in Amersham (some detailed below). This means we can reliably provide you with a local and experienced tutor that fits your needs.

Amersham primary school performance:

The Amersham area has 25 primary schools (one of the top being Our Lady's Catholic Primary School with 28% of pupils achieving at a higher standard).

From their latest Oftsed report:
Pupils work hard in a safe, stimulating environment. Relationships between pupils and adults are extremely positive. Pupils told me that they enjoy school and feel happy and safe. One pupil said that 'teachers teach us in a fun way'. Teachers plan interesting learning activities and offer pupils a good level of challenge.

The Amersham local authority has an average of 66% of students meeting the expected standards in reading, writing, and maths at primary school age (vs England's average of 65%). And has an average of 12% achieving higher standard (vs England's average of 11%).

From their latest Oftsed report:
Teaching is outstanding. Stimulating lessons are characterised by pace, challenge and high expectations. Students respond with great interest and enthusiasm.

Because we only ever work with qualified and experienced teachers in Amersham, you will always get a highly experienced teacher who is safe, reliable and up to speed with the current curriculum and exam requirements. There is no excellent learning without excellent teaching, and our teachers are expected to teach in a way that inspires and motivates. We have over 20,000 talented teachers providing tuition, chosen for their broad range of experience, professionalism, academic specialisms, passion, and dedication to their students. We only ever offer qualified teachers as tutors, as we believe professional teachers provide the highest quality of tuition.

Location
Home Tuition: Involves a teacher coming to your home in Amersham 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 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 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 tutor is required to travel to your home, in Amersham. Online Tuition: Often more affordable than home tuition as your 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 tutor will only be working with your child. Online Tuition: Provides flexibility in terms of location and may offer a wider selection of 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 tuition in Amersham 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.
