First Tutors provides parents and students in Richmond and the surrounding area with a centralised location to source experienced private tutors. Private tutoring sessions can be held in person or through a secure online learning platform. There are a lot of options available for those who are interested in scheduling an in-person tutoring session with a tutor in Richmond. You can meet with your tutor in the comfort of your own home, at one of the many beautiful public parks in the area, or at a library, cafe, or other favourite public space. If your schedule is too full to accommodate another regular meeting, working with your personal tutor online may provide you with the flexibility needed to make tutoring part of a regular academic routine.

Whether you have a child who has just entered primary school or you are in the final years of university, private tutoring sessions can help make academic goals more attainable. For some people, learning in a traditional classroom setting may not come naturally. One teacher working with many different students—all with different capabilities and learning styles—may be the most efficient solution, but it doesn't always make learning easy or fun. In contrast, when you or your child work with a personal tutor, the academic attention is entirely focused on the needs of the individual. This means the tutor can take the time to really get to know the student, their learning strengths and areas of opportunity, learning style, and personal interests in order to create a learning plan that is truly customised to help that student achieve their academic potential.

First Tutors can help you connect with a professional tutor who understands just how important the first years of primary school are for your child's ongoing academic career, no matter what school they attend. It is during Key Stages 1 and 2 that your child will gain their foundational knowledge of numeracy and literacy. Any delays in these areas can have a negative impact on future studies.

As your child begins their Year 6 studies, it's a good time to evaluate how far they have come and what areas need a little extra attention before moving on to secondary school. This is an especially wise time to have students work with a personal tutor on broader academic skills such as independent study techniques, critical thinking skills, test-taking strategies, and organisational skills. All of these tools play an important role in one's overall ability to succeed in an academic setting, and yet they can be overlooked. Strengthening these areas now can help improve overall performance in your child's secondary education.

The transition into a secondary school setting can be a difficult adjustment for many students, no matter how well prepared they are or how highly ranked their new school. Some of the most highly ranked secondary schools in the Richmond area include:

Working with a professional tutor can make the transition into the new setting easier. It can also give your child an opportunity to develop routines and structures that should be in place to make the kind of steady progress that leads to successful GCSE and A level grades.

As GCSEs and A levels approach, you may find your child experiencing increased anxiety. This is completely normal. The majority of students who have faced these exams have experienced anxious nights leading up to these exams. However, the recent changes to both GCSEs and the A levels seems to have increased the general level of anxiety amongst pupils, educators, and parents. Giving your child the opportunity to work with a private tutor with experience in the newly restructured exams allows them to approach their exam date with greater confidence.
