Live one-to-one online tutoring with one learner and one tutor. NLG supports Primary, Secondary, GCSE, A-Level, SEND and selected adult-learning routes, with 40-minute lessons tailored to the learner’s subject, stage and priorities. Regular one-to-one tutoring starts from £39.90 per lesson.
One-to-one online tutoring is a live lesson between one learner and one tutor, delivered online. Because the tutor is working with one student at a time, the lesson can focus on that learner’s current understanding, subject gaps, school work, exam preparation or confidence rather than following a shared group pace.
One-to-one tutoring gives students the space to ask questions, work at the right pace and receive support that is built around them rather than the rest of a class.
Lessons adapt to the student’s pace, confidence and subject gaps.
Tutor matching considers the learner’s subject, stage, goals, support needs and current tutor availability.
A quieter one-to-one setting helps students ask questions without pressure.
Lesson times are arranged around learner and tutor availability.
Support available for SATs, 11 Plus, GCSE, A-Level and resits.
Lesson priorities can be reviewed and adjusted as the learner’s needs change.
One-to-one tutoring may suit learners who need targeted subject help, a more individual pace, direct tutor attention, SEND support or focused exam preparation.
Use this page as the gateway into the right subject, stage or exam support. Every route leads to more specific NLG tutoring pages.
Both methods can work well, but they solve different problems. One-to-one is strongest when support needs to be highly personalised.
