According to Unesco, 29 countries around the world have now closed schools nationwide, with a further 20 countries implementing localised school closures in response to COVID-19. The UK Government is yet to follow this pattern in other countries, though we have seen isolated school closures in some regions leading to disruption in children’s studies amongst many aspects of family life.

With the prospect of increased school closures and the possibility of major exams being delayed until the Autumn term, families may want to consider additional educational support online or learning programmes over the summer.

As social interactions become less desirable, students are turning to online tutors to fill the educational gap leading to a significant increase in requests for online tutors. Our experienced, fully vetted tutors are able to deliver lessons via our Online Whiteboard and/or traditional online communication tools like Skype.

Academic Tutors Surrey provides tuition for all academic subjects remotely, online. We cover Maths, English, Science, Languages and Humanities amongst others. Our tutors will work with students to identify and fill gaps in their curriculum knowledge, parallel their ongoing syllabus and help with preparation for exams. We also support SEN students including those with dyslexia, dyspraxia and autism.

Our flexible approach to tuition allows students to use tuition hours flexibly across subjects, providing tutors in other subjects as and when required.

Selecting the best home tutor for your child is essential and our team at Academic Tutors Surrey have the experience to make the right choice. We hand pick every one of our tutors, ensuring they meet set criteria when it comes to subject specialism, teaching skills and delivering lessons personably and effectively.

All our tutors have successfully been through a rigorous interview process and demonstrated that they have excellent experience of teaching their specialist subject to a specific age group or age range. They are each educated with a relevant Bachelor’s degree.

Another essential part of our interview process includes obtaining background references and carrying out enhanced DBS checks to ensure peace-of-mind. However, we don’t just rely on paperwork and we take the time to get to know our tutors.

We appreciate that many people have the skills to be a tutor, but we look for added characteristics too. During the interview we check that our candidates display qualities that make for an exceptional tutor so that we are confident when it comes to placing them in your home.

One of our recent clients Thomas King said: “The team at Academic Tutors have made finding our tutors seamless. Our experience with both tutors has been exceptional, professional, and friendly. Our son has now passed his 11+ to two schools.”

The tutors we place are approachable, friendly, and put their students at ease. They take the time to understand their student’s needs and have the patience to work at the right pace, using the most engaging learning material.

With a deep understanding of their subject they can make the most of every tuition session. They will carefully work through topics and make sure they teach in a way that their students can truly understand, while answering any questions they have. This builds the confidence of students, which is critical in the learning process and when exam time arrives.

Our tutors realise that every student is unique and therefore they are adaptable when it comes to teaching methods and tools. They will request feedback from parents and students to make sure they are meeting requirements. Most of all, our tutors are passionate about teaching their subjects and helping students to achieve the best possible results.
