International Tutoring
Travel or Overseas Tuition
Many parents are worried about their child’s progress, particularly if they have special needs. Should they spend the summer, they wonder, trying to catch up on schoolwork instead? Fortunately, it doesn’t have to be an ‘either-or’ decision. SENsational Tutors have travelled to support families and children all over the world including Israel, Marbella, Monaco, France, Spain and Germany.
Overseas SEN Tutor Help?
A tutor with expert knowledge of working with kids with SEN can travel with you to plan and deliver holistic and bespoke 1:1 programmes, taking your child’s interests and individual needs into account.
Siblings can also be included if required. Tutors can work short-term, for a few weeks whilst you are on holiday, or longer-term for example if you are live permanently overseas or you are relocating to another country.
Everybody wins – the child keeps growing in confidence due to expert specialist support, whilst you, the parents, can relax and feel reassured, knowing that your son or daughter is learning and making progress.
A Parent’s Experience
Mr Alex hired a specialist tutor for his son, Oscar, aged thirteen. The family were planning to move from Switzerland to the UK and wanted to make sure the boy would be at the right level to slot into the curriculum at his new school.
“His main challenge was English writing but he also struggled with several areas in maths,” he explains,“Joanna from SENsational Tutors delivered fantastic results and we noticed a turnaround in Oscar’s performance after just a couple of weeks. He really looked forward to every lesson and for the first time, started approaching his writing homework with such eagerness and motivation that we couldn’t believe it! The sessions themselves were a wonderful balance between hard work and fun and always full of inspiration.”
Although Oscar wasn’t usually a quick learner, Alex continues, the family noticed a huge improvement in his confidence and motivation after two months. He eventually joined his new school in London, enthusiastic about the new life ahead of him.
“Many thanks to Joanna,”he concludes,“She has made a big difference and delivered a great learning experience to Oscar, along with some magic tricks whose secrets she would never reveal!”
