Sums and Times offers an individual tailored service which implies that the length and frequency of the sessions may vary from student to student. Therefore, we need to discuss these details with the student and the parent. However, our sessions with the different age groups may be categorized as below;
- A-levels/ Further Maths: 90 minutes or 120 minutes
- GCSE: 60 minutes or 90 minutes
- Younger students: 45 minutes or 60 minutes
This categorization reflects the general practice. But there are exceptional cases, for example a 60-min session for an A-level Student might be preferred depending on the student’s concentration habit.
The frequency of the sessions depends on the student’s level entirely. However, we observe that the most efficient way is to have one session in one week during school time and having more (2-5) sessions in holidays.
It is very usual to have sessions with 10-15 minute extensions. We do not charge these extensions as long as they are less than 30 minutes.
WE OFFER MORE!
- We promise to be available outside of the tutoring sessions for quick questions on Whatsapp.
