Online tutoring is similar and almost identical to distance learning. Online tutoring is the process of tutoring in an online, virtual, or networked, environment, in which teachers and learners participate from separate physical locations in real time. Say you were looking for a Physics and Maths tutor, you can search Sherpa to fulfill this need. It’s one of the new ways students can reach their full academic potential with the help of experienced teachers online.

With 100% focus from our experienced tutor one-to-one lessons are incredibly effective. Being guided through the curriculum at your own pace allows you to understand all topics and work through at your own pace. Giving you the best chance to get those 9s and A*s. It is a great idea to set target grades with your tutor.

This gives you both something to work towards and at the end you will be able to see how much progress you have made. One-to-one private tutoring boosts a child's confidence but only with the correct learning style curated by the tutor. This is why finding the best online tutor is crucial.

New studies show that online learning is not only at least as effective as face-to-face, but is often even more effective in terms of engagement and retention rates.

One-to-one online private tutoring boosts a child’s confidence and allows them to tackle their challenges head on in a friendly environment. Tutoring has proven to help children pass their exams due to the specific study goals they can set with their tutor and the focus that comes with being the only one in the class.

Moving tutoring to an online environment like Sherpa allows you to achieve your aims from home, connect with great tutors and use our online study resources. Tutor websites and tutoring services like Sherpa also allow you to learn from the comfort of your own home! It is like having a home tutor there with you.

Your child can learn online with successful tutors with any subject, anywhere, at any time. Allow your child to reach their full potential!

Online tutoring is to work as a hybrid model for teaching alongside pupil's school curriculums. Throughout a school term there are often various topics that are harder to understand or get brushed past quickly in the classroom. Whether it be an English literature text, a tricky maths equation or a crucial exam technique, online tutoring is there to fill those gaps.

Online tuition will be more sought after in the school holidays. This is because most online tutors are free during the school holidays and so are the students who are needing revision sessions. So, remember to book your sessions in advance!

At Sherpa we only pick tutors with the correct teaching experience. It’s all very well being an extremely knowledgeable person but being able to transfer that information to the student is one of the most important skills that a tutor must have. Our tutors have both teaching experience and expert knowledge of their field.

We personally interview each and every tutor who applies, and only around 1 in 8 tutors who apply make it onto the platform. The best combination to achieve 9s and A*s.

The cost of online tutoring is quite similar to that of face-to-face tutoring. Most lessons average around £25-30/per hour but lessons start from £20/per hour. Sherpa offers a free introduction to establish if the online tutor is right for each student. Meaning you can meet a couple of tutors to find the best tutor for you!

Many face-to-face tutors are actually more expensive than online tutors. GCSE level tutors cost an average of £32.50 per hour, and £36 per hour at A-Level. For university tutors, the average hourly rate was found to be £41 per hour. Music tutors were reported to charge £32 per hour, and language tutors, £30 per hour.

Currently online learning is one of the safest teaching methods, for a number of reasons:

• All online tutors are vetted by Sherpa. Most have DBS’ which are checked by us. Those who don’t have a DBS will appear with a tag on their profile stating this.
• Online tuition or home tutoring is the safest method currently given the coronavirus pandemic. It ensures the safety of both student and tutor by restricting social interactions between both student and teacher.

You betcha!
