At Harrogate Tuition by Sarah Poolton, we offer quality, bespoke tutoring tailored specifically for your child's needs. Every lesson taught is delivered by a fully-qualified, DBS checked teacher. A standard lesson is 45 minutes long with the option to extend lessons for secondary school students. Wellbeing sessions are also available and are delivered by our experienced emotional and social wellbeing coach.
Small group classes provide a stimulating learning environment with each lesson carefully crafted to boost confidence, make connections and deepen understanding of key concepts in the core curriculum. These small group sessions apply an engaging, interactive and practical approach to teaching and learning. Lessons are held at our classroom at Hornbeam Park, Harrogate. We are able to deliver Small Group Classes to both Primary and Secondary students.
Online lessons are an efficient and effective way to plan additional support for your child around your families schedule. Moreover, online lessons are not limited by geographical boundaries, making it easier for you to connect with the right tutor no matter where you or they live in the UK. Online meeting platforms are equipped with tools to engage the learner. By simply sharing the screen, tutors can guide the child through the learning material, while the child can actively participate and ask questions. This interactive approach encourages the learner to invest in and take control of the learning experience, and, importantly, gain confidence, competence and knowledge.
Lessons at home provide a relaxed and familiar environment and help tutors build relationships with both parents and students through regular, personal communication and feedback. Learners benefit from a variety of hands-on, adaptable and engaging teaching approaches designed to build confidence and progress the learner towards their targeted objectives. We are able to deliver private lessons to both Primary and Secondary students.
Formalised testing can be a significant hurdle for students of all ages, often marking their first major experience of academic pressure. Our specialised Exam Technique sessions are designed to move beyond simple subject revision, focusing instead on building practical strategies and mental resilience. We equip your child with everything that they need to enter the test room feeling prepared, confident and truly ready to showcase their knowledge.
We provide personalised and tailored support for all examinations across Primary and Secondary, including: KS2 SATs, 11+ (Grammar School Exams & Common Entrance), GCSEs and A-Levels.
