    Good Reasons For Using A Tutorial College

    Good Reasons For Using A tutorial College

    Here are a few reasons why a student or parent might consider using a tutorial college. Most of these examples probably fit under the heading of ‘unusual circumstances of one form or another’. This certainly doesn’t mean that there is anything wrong with the student – or even with the student’s current school – just that, for some reason, it isn’t working out.

     – You failed your GCSEs or A levels and you want to retake them.
     – Your studies have been badly disrupted by Coronavirus and you want to catch up.
     – Large group learning doesn’t suit you.
     – You want more flexibility at school.
     – Your school won’t allow you to study the combination of subjects you want.
     – You are unhappy at your school, or have lost faith in it.
     – You are just fed up with school and school rules.
     – You want to be treated as a young adult rather than as a child.
     – You have come under the influence of a bad group of friends.
     – You have bullying at your school.
     – You are taught in groups that you think may be holding you back.
     – You are taught in groups that you think may be too strong for you.
     – You want to be able to look at things more deeply than the syllabus requires.
     – Teachers think you aren’t up to it academically and you want to prove them wrong.
     – You have dyslexia or another specific learning difficulty.
     – You are academically gifted.
     – You want to apply to Oxbridge but your teachers don’t encourage you.
     – You need to get top grades as you want to become a doctor, vet, lawyer or dentist, or similar.
     – You need to improve your academic self-confidence.
     – You have lost ground at school through illness like ME or glandular fever and need to ease yourself back into education.
     – You need a flexible timetable so you can help someone at home.
     – You want to retake exams and work at the same time.
     – You have a medical problem like a hearing disability.
     – You don’t want to do compulsory sport.
     – You’d be more comfortable in a small, close environment where you can be yourself.
     – You have been expelled from school, or are in danger of being expelled.
     – You want to study somewhere where you can choose to be an individual and where you do not have to conform.

    I came to Barts because I failed my A-levels at another college and was consequently unable to get to uni on the course I wanted (Biomedicine). After only a year at Barts I was able to turn my A-levels around (pretty astonishing considering it took two years to fail the first time I did them!). As a result of going to Barts, I was able get to Uni. In fact, I actually had a choice of where I wanted to go.

    Being a student at Barts was brilliant. I felt like I was listened to by my teachers and supervisor, and made to feel comfortable and supported throughout my university applications and my studies.

    My teachers knew their subjects inside out and I felt reassured that I could get through the content before my exams.

    Phoebe Jones

    Barts were amazing. My son's tutor was perfect in every way, we couldn’t have asked for a more amazing chap to not only turn 2 C’s into an A star and an A grade, but also the level of care and support was beyond anything we could have hoped for. Barts is like a family that care for you from start to finish. When the experience is all all over, you miss them. I cannot recommend them more highly. A star Barts!

    Jo Miller

    My daughter attended Barts for tuition in one subject in year 13 whilst she was at sixth form college, as ill health was affecting her grades. Everyone at Barts was incredibly kind and supportive, and they were happy to work in a way that suited my daughter. Their sincere interest in their pupils was apparent from the very first meeting. I think it is a unique and exceptional place.

    Alison Cowley

    The one to one tuition allows you to get the most out of each lesson. While the socials and common room ensure that you are far from isolated. Your individual progress is monitored as the year goes on, helping to ensure and enable you to reach your full potential. Bartholomews proved to be everything I needed and more and I would sincerely urge others to consider going here.

    Paige Allen

    Barts have helped our family in so many ways. Mike was hugely supportive - he listened and supported in very different ways.

    I can't thank them enough. From extra GCSE learning support to an extra A level - the teaching was excellent and their approach always well suited.
