Victoria helped my daughter who had been out of school for 2 years receive a 5/5 in science. We are so pleased with her progress and thank you to Victoria for helping her to get into Sixth Form Mrs Rose
Blandford Forum

Victoria helped my daughter who had been struggling with A-level psychology since she started, Victoria really boosted her confidence and helped her to get into university. The sessions, despite only being a short amount of time before the exams, really made all the difference. Mrs Barret
Blandford Forum

Oliver is an excellent science tutor! They helped my son improve in both understanding and grades in biology and chemistry. They explain difficult concepts clearly and are always patient and encouraging. My son gained so much confidence thanks to Oliver's guidance. Highly recommend! Mrs C Mason

Delina has been teaching my child for 10 months, and in that time, my daughter has gone from the bottom of her maths group to the top. Before Delina my daughter did not enjoy maths and was always struggling. When we met Delina, she built my daughter's foundation in Maths; she gave her the belief and confidence that she could do it. Delina is an excellent tutor; she has all the necessary resources to take a child to a higher level. I am absolutely amazed at how well my daughter is doing in Maths. My daughter passed her 11 plus in the high school she wanted. She also got a Gold Star in a National Competition in Maths. My daughter loves her lessons with Delina and absolutely loves Maths and this is all thanks to Delina!!  Mrs Raman Naghotra

Location
Home Tuition: Involves a teacher coming to your home in Blandford Forum 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 Blandford Forum. 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 Blandford Forum 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.
