Small Group Science Tutoring
Online, Personal, Proven
Many parents assume 1:1 tutoring is the gold standard. It sounds ideal: personalised attention, someone who really understands your child, and a way to fill the gaps school may have left. And sometimes, that really is the right choice.
But here’s the thing: 1:1 isn’t the only way—and it’s not always the best way.
In fact, small group tutoring is often more effective than people realise. There’s research to support it, and as a science tutor with over 10 years of experience, I’ve seen first-hand how well it works.
Why small group tutoring works so well:
Less pressure, more participation: 1:1 can feel intense. In small groups, students aren’t under the spotlight the whole time. They contribute when they’re ready, build confidence at their own pace, and realise that other students share the same struggles
Peer learning is powerful: Hearing how other students explain things or approach a problem helps cement understanding. Students often learn just as much from each other as they do from the tutor
Active engagement means deeper learning: Students in small groups are encouraged to explain their thinking, listen to others, and reflect on feedback. This kind of active learning leads to stronger memory and greater confidence
Motivation and accountability: Being part of a consistent group creates a sense of routine and community. Students show up, cheer each other on, and feel encouraged to keep going—even when revision gets tough.
According to the Education Endowment Foundation, small group tuition can lead to an average of four months' additional academic progress over the course of a year.
