It is during the years associated with Key Stages 1 and 2 that your child will develop their basic numeracy and literacy skills. A professional tutor can work with your child to help ensure they master these important concepts so they are able to move into the more complex topics in their secondary studies. Private tuition provides your child with the gift of experienced academic support and guidance from a highly qualified personal tutor who can help them achieve their academic potential. A personal tutor can take the time to discover your child's unique learning style, as well as where they are struggling academically and in which areas they excel. With this information, your child's tutor can then design a personalised learning plan that will specifically address your child's academic needs to help efficiently and incrementally improve their fundamental understanding of the material with which they have been presented.

As your child approaches the end of their time in primary school, you may want to evaluate key academic areas that are often overlooked. These include independent study and research skills, test-taking strategies, organisational skills, and time management tactics. While these may seem like intuitive skills a child would pick up over the course of their education, this is frequently not the case. However, a personal tutor can work with your child to help them improve these key areas, which can be implemented to great effect throughout the course of their academic career.

Upon entering secondary school, your child's attention will begin to turn towards the upcoming GCSEs and A levels. Even though the exams are still years away, pupils must begin preparing for them from the beginning of secondary school. With the recent redesign of both sets of exams, the importance of early preparation can't be overvalued. Allowing your child to work with a tutor experienced in the new formats can be an invaluable asset in test preparation. Without achieving sufficient GCSE and A level exam grades, many academic opportunities can be limited.

Alternatively, for some students with high achievement marks, school may become boring if students feel unchallenged. They may ultimately lose their motivation and love of learning. A private tutor can be of tremendous value for these types of students. A personal tutor can discover your child's unique interests, providing a programme of study that incorporates these interests in an academic format that may help your child engage again. This may inspire a student to put forth maximum effort in their daily classes.
