Reviews for tutors in Portishead

Paul has been tutoring my daughter for just over a year, shortly after she moved to Gordano School. She was about a school year behind at Gordano as the school starts preparing students for the GCSEs in year 9 and not year 10 as in other schools. I was looking for a tutor who would help my daughter catch up and improve her confidence in the subject. â€< Before his tutoring, my daughter hated Maths and did not believe she could achieve a passing grade. Not only has he helped her catch up with the curriculum, but he also managed to engage her in the subject. Her confidence in it has substantially increased, and she is even considering undertaking the subject at a higher level (post GCSEs). I highly recommend him, and I have no doubt he will be able to have the same effect on other students. Jatin, Portishead

Excellent tutor. It really turned my son's grades around. I have already recommended and will continue to do so. Thanks, Paul Sarah, Bristol

Hannah is a great Politics tutor. She explained the syllabus very clearly for my daughter, and went at my daughter's pace. Hannah is very knowledgeable, knows her subject well. Miss De Boehmler

Hannah has been fantastic at working with my son and boosting his low mock grade. She quickly got the measure of him and put actions in place to support his learning. Mrs Foran

I think you were a big help in terms of getting detailed support on areas she felt she was weak in or didn't quite grasp in class. That extra touch can go a long way. We are very happy with the support you have given her. I have only ever heard positive feedback about her economics tutoring. So, there you go, you've given another kid a little boost towards their shot at life. That's what teaching is all about.  Mr Charles Rogers

Tom's confidence and positivity have massively improved since he has been having tutoring sessions with you. It is brilliant that he has your support with his NEA project, that you can teach him topics that he has missed through his illness and that you can help him prepare/ revise for his A-Level exam. He was getting very disillusioned with Computer Science before he had you and felt that his goal of going to university to do a Computer Science / Software engineering degree was unattainable. He very much enjoys his sessions with you. He says that you are easy to talk to and he feels very comfortable being with you. Tom like's the fact that he can send you work that he is doing/ things that he is stuck on as and when needed, for you both to resolve together in the next session. You explain things clearly and help him to find his own solutions. As the NEA project coding needs to be done by early November, he might need to have two lessons a week for some weeks before this deadline. We hope this is ok with you. We'll let Tom decide as to when he needs extra lessons and arrange this with you. Thank you for everything that you are doing for Tom. We feel very relieved and grateful that he has your help. He has had a massive struggle (physically and mentally) with his ME/CFS for nearly 6 years now and has gone from bed-bound/ in a wheelchair to managing 6th form college on a reduced timetable. I think that your help will give him that extra boost and enable him to see that he does have a future (he hasn't previously thought this). Many thanks, Vivienne Mrs Culpeper

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 Portishead 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 Portishead. 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 Portishead 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.
