The top five reasons to get a private tutor for your child

Private Tutors - Top English and Maths Tutors

At TEAM-T (Top English and Maths -Tutors) we know that confidence in core subjects like Maths and English can significantly impact overall academic success. Personalised tutoring is one of the most effective ways to build that confidence. Here’s why it works:

1-Tailored Learning Plans Research from the Sutton Trust shows that one-to-one tuition has one of the highest impacts on student progress, particularly when sessions are tailored to individual needs. At TEAM-T, we assess each student to create a bespoke plan focused on their strengths and weaknesses.

Mastery of learning takes time. Top English and Maths Tutors

2 - Mastery Over Time A 2019 study by the UK Department for Education found that students who engage in personalised tutoring develop mastery of difficult topics at a faster rate. Our approach ensures that each student masters foundational concepts before moving on to more complex material. The reality is that in most schools class sizes, competing needs and a fast paced curriculum means that mastery is not prioritised or even possible. Top English and Maths Tutors are mastery focused when it comes to the build blocks of your child's education.

Anxiety About Learning

3 - Reducing Anxiety Many children face anxiety around Maths and English, particularly when they struggle. Studies by the British Psychological Society show that when learning is personalised, students experience less stress and perform better. Our tutors create a relaxed, supportive environment where students can thrive without fear of failure. It is that fear of failure that often limits progress. Large class sizes and high stakes learning environments inhibit risk taking and students might not want to lose face or fear being ridiculed by peers.

4 - Building Positive Relationships One-to-one tutoring also fosters strong relationships between tutor and student, which plays a key role in boosting confidence, as noted by research from the University of Cambridge. At TEAM-T, our tutors and mentors are passionate about building trust and helping students believe in their abilities. How do we know this? We've been established for eights years and families trust us.

5 - Immediate Feedback and Encouragement Personalised tutoring allows for immediate feedback, which is crucial for improvement. According to NFER, students who receive instant, constructive feedback are more likely to engage and stay motivated. At TEAM-T, we ensure every student feels supported with timely, meaningful feedback.

By investing in personalised tutoring with TEAM-T, you’re investing in your child’s future confidence and academic success.
