No matter which school your child attends, working with a private tutor can provide an unparalleled level of academic guidance and support. Tuition can be a valuable asset in helping your child achieve their academic potential. When a pupil is in a classroom setting, they must work at the pace of the class. This leaves very little room for academic individuality within the confines of the school. However, when working independently with a private tutor, your child will have someone who is focused only on their academic needs. Your child's tutor can take the time to discover where your child is academically, identify strengths and weaknesses, and find out what motivates them. This information can then be utilised to create a customised learning plan that is as unique as your child.
