Group Sessions for Home Learning

With the complete shutdown of schools parents have been asking me if I can offer small group lessons to support home learning over the coming months. The simple answer to this is yes and it can take a variety of forms. Though I don't organise groups myself, I can provide tuition for groups of two, three or four of similar age/attainment in a lesson-style format. This could take place in person at your home, my home or online (so long as you are able to supervise at your end.) Resources for the lesson will be provided in advance.

Though less effective than one-to-one tuition, group sessions provide an economic alternative as the hourly rate can be shared.

In summary, we are living through unusual times that require creative solutions and as an experienced educator I am looking to do what I can to accommodate the individual needs of parents and students.

Should you have any questions please do email me.

And now, a few more examples of recent learning worth celebrating!

Well done to E (Year 4) for great progress in her writing. You wrote a fantastic character description based on our recent reading and the next week compared the story's contrasting settings at the beginning and end of the story.

Congratulations to G (Year 3) for her success identifying parallel and perpendicular lines this week. We used a set square to accurately identify the right angles.

January 2021: Tier 5 Lockdown

This evening Boris confirmed the inevitable. We are entering a second full lockdown and schools will once again be closed; this time until at least the February half term. I have already taken several enquiries tonight from parents I work with regarding additional hours for their children to supplement the remote learning provided by schools. Whilst I did have just a couple of hours available on Saturdays, the closure of schools does mean I can now offer sessions within the school day (should they not conflict with the sessions schools are providing.) If you are looking for 1:1 or group tuition throughout the school closure period please contact me. Whilst group tuition is less effective than 1:1 it can provide a solution for anyone on a budget - less than £10 an hour in the case of a group of 3 (the maximum group size I believe is effective.) You can organise a group yourself or I can organise this should there be enough interest by individuals looking for tuition in the same year gr...

Updated for 2024

I am now taking enquiries for new students looking to potentially begin tuition in September this year. Please do take some time to explore my site and cotact me if you would like to know more. Andy

October Update

Despite the stop-start nature of the autumn term due to the ongoing pandemic, I welcomed back all my students for another year of success in their chosen subjects. With severe restrictions now lifted, I have been able to tutor in person both at my home and those of my tutees whilst continuing to work online with those who prefer this. I currently have a one hour session on Wedenesdays after school available should you be looking for support plus a number of daytime sessions throughout the week for home educators. Congratulations to M, one of my new students, this week for her fantastic phonics learning. She not only solved all my phonic quiz clues to guess and write key words but also applied them in her writing relating to our shared story, Oh Otto.
