Private tutoring has always worked; the only question has ever been who could afford it. Nothing replaces a teacher, and nothing should. What this extends is reach: going over the same idea a fourth time, patiently, in the voice a child already trusts, into the evening and the holidays.
For the school
- Catch-up and revision outside contact time, in your teachers' own voices
- Curriculum fidelity: teaching from your schemes of work, not the open internet
- Targeted support without pulling a teacher from the class
- Continuity through absence, supply cover and year-group moves
For the child & parents
- Your teacher's face and voice, at your own pace, any time you want it
- No embarrassment in asking: not next Tuesday, right now
- Support with homework in subjects parents can't help with themselves
- Safety by design: school-approved material only, private conversations
