Reviews for tutors in Southend-on-Sea

5.0

Excellent Teaching, very kind, considerate, top skilled and excellent teacher Mrs Kamaraj
Southend-on-Sea

Lisa is brilliant. She plans my son's sessions around his interests, always giving some options to allow him to have autonomy in his learning. I asked him what he thinks of Lisa, and he said he really likes her because she is kind, patient and calm. She has great communication and is always on time, armed with fun resources to engage my hard-to-engage son. We are delighted with the support Lisa has been providing and would absolutely recommend her. Ms Holloway
Southend-on-Sea

Lisa is highly prepared and organised. She always brings a bag full of fun ways to help my son with his English. She has a wonder understanding of my sons' needs, who has both ADHD and dyslexia. Lisa is kind and patient. My 9 year old has gone from hating English because I can't do to it being one of his favourite lessons English is fun. I highly recommend Lisa. Miss Hankey

I can highly recommend Ben as a tutor for your child. Ben has been tutoring my daughter in PET (Philosophy, Ethics, Theology) and also helped her with her EPQ. Ben's attitude is friendly and supportive and has helped my daughter get into her first choice, Russell Group University. Thank you Ben! Mrs Amanda Watkins (mills)
Southend-on-Sea

You were a great teacher and definitely made a big effort to work in my style as someone with autism and teach me in a way that I needed. The I'd give you 10/10! Neve (student, Philoosphy And Ethics)
Southend-on-Sea

Claire is a fantastic tutor, so kind and welcoming my children love her! She makes the learning so engaging and fun and my kids genuinely look forward to the night she comes round! Claire helped our 6 year old daughter, who is young for her year, pass the phonics screening first time and we have seen huge progress in her learning since we brought Claire in to help! We have now started our youngest daughter, who's also very young for the year, with Claire and she is really enjoying the sessions. I would highly recommend Claire to anyone, as well as being a fantastic tutor she's an all round lovely person 😊 Mr Rennie

Jan helped my daughter overcome the gaps in her knowledge with maths after lockdown. She also really helped boost her confidence and got her ready for her SATS. Highly recommend Jan Miss O'donoghue

Location
Home Tuition: Involves a teacher coming to your home in Southend-on-Sea 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 Southend-on-Sea. 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 Southend-on-Sea 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.
