Reviews for tutors in Newton Abbot

5.0

Jake has been one of the most supportive and helpful individuals for my daughter's journey through A-levels. His determination and calm demeanour gave my daughter the confidence and motivation to improve her ability in a subject she didn't particularly like, History. I would highly recommend all parents to consider Jake in helping their own children through such a highly stressful and difficult time like A-levels. Mrs S Barden
Newton Abbot

Such a great tutor and has helped build my confidence in politics, thanks Jake! Clara
Newton Abbot

Tim has worked with my 15 year old son for more than four years. He has adhd and ASD. Tim has built a great relationship with him such that this reluctant learner now can't wait for the next maths or English session. Under Tim's guidance, he recently completed a 12,000 word book that he will be self-publishing. Tim is kind and very conscientious: I've seen him take extraordinary care to build trust with anxious kids and maintain it over years. Andy Mason
Newton Abbot

Lisa is a fantastic tutor! Dedicated, patient, hardworking and has a made a big difference to my son's English in a short space of time. Many thanks Lisa! Mrs Power
Newton Abbot

We were so impressed with Lisa's dedication to the lessons and thoughtful/insightful commentary on work done outside of lesson time. She gave my daughter a huge amount of confidence in a subject she was feeling worried about and completely turned around her experience of sitting the exams. Lisa equipped my daughter with the tools necessary to achieve higher marks in her GCSEs and we will definitely be getting back in touch when the time comes for my other daughters! Mrs Snape
Newton Abbot

Sarah is an excellent teacher. She is very personable and responds admirably to the level of ability she has to cope with. She knows how to challenge me and I feel I have really made progress in the last few weeks. Thank you Mrs Davies

Our experience with Sarah has been first class from start to finish. She has helped my daughter to reignite her love of Spanish and to regain confidence she had lost. Sarah is friendly, down to earth and always really quick to respond to messages. I would definitely recommend. Mrs De Garis

Location
Home Tuition: Involves a teacher coming to your home in Newton Abbot 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 Newton Abbot. 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 Newton Abbot 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.
