What It Is

What Is One-to-One Online Tutoring?

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.
