What is the cost of a A-Level English tutor?

The cost of a A-Level English tutor can vary depending on several factors, such as qualifications, experience, and whether Face-to-Face or Online. Private A-Level English tutors may cost anywhere from £15 to £60 per hour. A qualified teacher from Teachers To Your Home, will range from £17.50 per hour for online group tuition, to £50 for Face-to-Face A Level A-Level English Tuition.

Which is better? Face-to-Face or Online A-Level English Tuition?

Face-to-face tuition allows for direct interaction and personalized attention from the A-Level English tutor. It provides a more structured learning environment and can help students stay more motivated and focused. On the other hand, online tuition offers more flexibility in terms of scheduling and location. Students can access A-Level English tutoring from anywhere and online sessions can be recorded for future reference. Online tuition also tends to be more affordable and can offer a wider range of A-Level English tutors and subjects. Ultimately, the best choice depends on the individual student's needs and preferences. Younger or SEN students may benefit more from face-to-face tuition, while older students may prefer the convenience and flexibility of online tuition.

What are the advantages Group Tuition?

Group A-Level English tutoring provides a supportive environment where students can work together, learn from one another and engage in collaborative problem-solving. It provides students with a variety of perspectives and ideas, which can lead to a deeper understanding of the subject matter. Being in a group allows students to work together, communicate effectively, and develop teamwork skills. Group A-Level English tutoring is often less expensive than one-on-one A-Level English tutoring, making it more accessible for students who need extra help.

Does my child need a A-Level English tutor?

Not every child needs a A-Level English tutor, but there are many scenarios where tuition will be beneficial. The obvious is if a child is not attending school for whatever reason. If they are at school, a A-Level English tutor may be needed to stop a student from falling behind, which can lead to disillusionment and behavioural issues; or to get back on track after a poor end-of-year exam result. If a specific learning difficulty or Special Educational Need (SEN) is identified, then A-Level English Tuition can provide a vital reinforcement. For high stakes exams, such as 11+, Common Entrance (often 13+) for schools, GCSE and A-Level or IB, tuition can provide that final boost to get over the line, the stretch to reach the top grades required for the next stage of education, or assistance with specific exam techniques that may not be taught at school.

A SEN (Special Educational Needs) A-Level English tutor, is an educator who specialises in providing additional support and guidance to students with special educational needs. These needs may arise due to a variety of factors, such as learning disabilities, physical disabilities, or emotional or behavioural difficulties.

Mrs Jane R

A-Level English Tutor

I am a qualified and experienced teacher of English, History, French, Latin, Classical Civilisation & Functional Skills, and also offer preparation for SATs, and 11+/13+ Common Entrance exams, including Latin where relevant. I have taught Adult Functional Skills for many years, alongside IGCSE English, GCSE English, History and French, and have also worked with dyslexic pupils (my own children are dyslexic too). Students benefit from my teaching, feeling relaxed and confident with each subject, ensuring success. AQA, OCR, Eduqas, Edexcel & City & Guilds, are the boards with which I have recent experience. Learning, I believe, can only take place where clearly communicated ideas are fully understood by the learner; this is where I feel my strengths lie. I specialise in exam technique, and honing study skills, to achieve well written answers, and have had great success with all my students, including those with health/anxiety/confidence/disability issues - their grades going up by 2-3 levels.
