PRIVATE TUITION

Private one-to-one tuition is our main service.

Our main headquarters are in Shaftesbury Dorset, but we provide face to face private tuition to children, young people and adults across the whole of Dorset and parts of Somerset and Wiltshire in the UK.

We have a vastly growing online tutoring service reaching families across the world. Our scheduling and communication can adapt to your time zone and currency.

How we deliver our private tuition

We want to provide our services in a way that works for you and keeps everyone safe in the current climate.  We offer:

Face-to-face in our centers

Our private tuition centers are in Shaftesbury and Blandford Dorset. With purpose-designed tutoring rooms and comfortable waiting rooms for parents, our in-house tutoring service provides students with the perfect learning environment whatever their chosen subject.

Face-to-face in your home

Depending on availability and location, some Westcountry Tuition-approved private tutors will be able to deliver private tuition in your home in Dorset, Somerset, and Wiltshire. Whilst we turn down more private tutors than we approve. Our growing numbers of tutors means we continually cover a wider tutoring area across the West Country.

Online via video

This is our most popular form of private tuition. Many students and parents find our online tuition experience just as good, if not better, than face-to-face tuition in their home.

THE PERFECT TUTORS FOR YOU

At Westcountry Tuition, we know how hard it can be to find a private tutor who you trust will be the best fit for you or your child’s academic requirements and private tuition requirements. Let us help you find the best tutor to match your needs for private tuition. We take rigorous steps to check the suitability of all our Westcountry Tuition approved tutors, so you do not have to.

We scrutinize our tutors across four levels to make sure we provide the perfect match.

Safety: We check DBS (police checks) and do everything possible to make sure ex-teachers. Who applied are not barred from teaching. We also require references and testimonials.

Qualifications: We make sure your tutor is qualified and competent to tutor your chosen subjects. That they understand their subject well. They can also communicate in a way that will make the most sense to you. We also physically check qualifications as well as checking the tutors’ experience and skills.

Personality:  Whilst many tutors have the same qualifications and experiences, often it is the tutor’s personality, interests, and hobbies. That creates the best fit for your child. This personality factor is the keystone to the best possible private tuition, which always creates academic success.

IT skills: There is nothing worse than a tutor who is unable to cope with the technology. We ensure all our online tutors know how to make the most of the online whiteboard and can quickly help you get the most out of it too.
