Online and In-Person Tutoring in Perth
Most tutors registered with Personal Tutors offer both local in-person tuition and online lessons, giving families the flexibility to consider either option depending on location, subject and tutor availability.
Online Tuition
Online tuition is available throughout Perth and provides access to tutors from a much wider geographical area.
Lessons take place one-to-one online and can be arranged directly with the tutor. This can be particularly useful for students studying National 5, Higher or Advanced Higher subjects where finding the right subject specialist locally may be more difficult.
Online tuition also offers greater flexibility for families and adult learners who may live outside Perth or in more rural parts of the surrounding area.
Local In-Person Tuition
Where a suitable tutor lives within travelling distance, tuition may be arranged in the pupil’s home. Most tutors who provide local tuition also offer online lessons, so families can discuss with the tutor which arrangement works best for them.
The availability of local in-person tuition varies according to subject, level and geographical area. You can see the tutors currently covering your area by entering your postcode in the Postcode Search Box.
Scottish Curriculum and Qualifications
Tutors can provide support with the Scottish Curriculum for Excellence, from Primary and Broad General Education through to the senior phase.
This may include preparation for National 4, National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher qualifications, with tuition tailored to the subject, level and qualification being studied.
Tutors can help students reinforce classroom learning, work through areas they find difficult, develop exam technique and prepare for assessments and examinations.
