Private tuition provides your child with a tremendous advantage. Students receive additional expert guidance and support as they make their way through their primary education, which can help them reach their academic potential. A personal tutor can work individually with your child on the areas they find most challenging, or they can introduce new concepts to keep a gifted child challenged and engaged.

As your child begins to ready for the transition into secondary school, they may become more aware of the importance of mastering key study skills. During the early years of primary school, the focus is generally on subject area mastery, but skills such as organisation, time management, and testing techniques become more important in secondary school. A professional tutor can work with your child to form a strong base of study techniques that are applicable to all subject areas. A personal tutor can also be an invaluable asset for those students who will be taking admissions exams to get into a preferred school.

Regardless of whether your child will be attending a grammar school or other secondary school, the stress of moving into a new environment can affect academic achievement. However, a personal tutor can work with both the child and the family to introduce tactics that help reduce the stress associated with the transition, while helping to rectify any academic losses.
