The Best Private Tutors in Evershot, Dorset, United Kingdom (2025)

Marta has supported both my daughters with maths and sciences over the last 5 years both going through GCSE’s and some A level biology support. Marta has the ability to establish a young persons best method of learning and was able differentiate work visually to support my daughters learning style. Marta also has an amazing variety of coloured pens! Marta has been flexible with online or face to face learning and has been able to offer additional tutor slots in holidays and weekends for the lead up to exams. Marta has an abundance of patience and we would recommend her to others. A big thank you.x

We have had a very positive experience with science tutoring for GCSEs using this site. The tutor Marta is very professional and friendly and my boys have enjoyed the process and I am certain it has improved their grades. The online classroom worked very well and I would highly recommend.

Marta is a fantastic tutor, my child studied GCSE science subjects in person and online with Marta. Both methods worked for my child and working online also helped with studying in familiar surroundings with no detracting from the lesson content . I'm pleased to say GSCE results have been great today so thank you Marta for all your help and enthusiasm

Happy world teachers day. You have been amazing with my daughter who was struggling with Maths and English. Maths GCSE passed. English November resit. Thank you you have given her the confidence to keep trying.

My daughter has always struggled with maths from a young age. From meeting Matt he was keen to understand the difficulties my daughter had within maths and focused on building back her confidence. I have noticed a change in her confidence and she is much more positive about her Maths. I whole heartedly recommend Matt and his tuition services. Thank you for everything you have done.

I can’t recommend Matt more highly. We signed up for maths tutoring with Matt fairly late in the year, with only about 6 weeks until the exams were to begin; mainly because our son was really struggling with confidence about his maths. The pressure to pass was making revision seem totally overwhelming. Matt was such a fantastic tutor. Not only did he help to make sense of the areas of maths which were a struggle, but he also subtly coached our son to have a positive mindset. Having been hugely reluctant to begin his tutoring, he very quickly looked forward to the sessions and came away like a different person - much less stressed, and confident to tackle his exams. We are hugely grateful for the support!

My daughter has just finished her GCSE exams. She had maths tuition with Matt from February to the final paper last week. Due to weekly tuition with Matt we saw a considerable improvement in her overall ability, with a grade increase for her mocks in March. Matt makes his students feel relaxed about getting things wrong, does not pressure them and gets the best out of them. My daughter actually enjoyed the sessions, which is a first for her math's journey. Thank you Matt! I do not hesitate to recommend Matt to anybody looking for a Maths Tutor for their children.

Matt is an extremely experienced and brilliant maths teacher. I would highly recommend him.

Alison at Jurassic Coast Tutoring was just brilliant. It was a last minute request for tutoring only 10 weeks before her exams and Alison managed to fit my daughter in at a suitable time. Alison made my daughter feel at ease, checked in on her prior to each lesson, provided suitable and relevant materials for her to practice throughout the week (as requested by me!) and my Daughter passed! We are so happy and grateful for the excellent tutoring and personal approach taken by Alison. We would highly recommend.

Ali and Tracy have been amazing Tutors for my son. I can't thank them enough for all their expertise and guidance. My sons confidence has grown so much and they have helped so much with his exams. Thank you so much 🙏🙏

What can I say, what an amazing group. I was lucky to have Alison teach me on one hour sessions on the past 3/4 months. She made it really easy to understand where I was going wrong and helped me learn new ways to make sure, 1, I was getting what she was teaching and 2, how to solve questions. Would definitely use them again. 6 out of 5 stars 25/07/23 UPDATE I passed my Maths Exam thanks to Alison!

We approached Jurassic Coast Tutors for extra support as my daughter approached GCSE’s focussing on English Language. We were matched with Tracy who was able to provide 1:1 support, in our home. Sessions were planned around our daughters needs and our budget. Payments was easy and automatic. I cannot recommend Tracy and Jurassic Cost tutors enough. Grades have gone from a mock result of grade 1 at the end of year 10, to a grade 6 in actual results, it’s life changing. Thank you

I highly recommend Jerome for any parent looking for a skilled and dedicated math tutor. Jerome has a unique ability to explain complex mathematical concepts in a way that is easy for students to understand. My child's confidence in math has grown significantly since working with him and their grades have improved noticeably. His patience, enthusiasm, and personalised approach to teaching make each session engaging and productive. I am grateful for the positive impact Jerome has had on my child's academic journey." Mark

Jerome recently helped my son with studying for the 11+ exam. My son loved the sessions, he thought Jerome explained thing's clearly, and looked forward to the sessions. He picked up a lot techniques and tips which all contributed to him passing the grammar school test comfortably. We are very happy with the service, and found Jerome to be a patient, helpful, and knowledgeable tutor and will definitely use him in the future when needed.

Our son has been on his learning journey with Jerome since year 3 when we noticed our child was starting to become disinterested & limited in what was being provided in his classroom. It has been close to 2 years that we have been using Jerome as a tutor & the improvement in our son's attitude towards learning has greatly improved & we had excellent results on his year end report. I cannot recommend Jerome's services enough our son is engaged and exceeding in his year group but most of all his love of learning has returned. Worth every penny!

Jerome tutored my daughter for just over a year for her maths GCSE and I can’t thank him enough for the encouragement and confidence he gave her. She didn’t believe she could pass a maths GCSE and when she opened her results this summer she was delighted and relieved to find she had passed!! Without Jerome, it would have been a very different outcome. If you are looking for a tutor for your child, I wholly recommend Jerome, don’t hesitate.

Poppy offers fantastic tuition. She is reliable, friendly and creative in her teaching approach to get the best out of your child. She supported my daughter, who has moderate dyslexia, through her English GCSE’s in year 11, and as a result of her highly personalised approach, my daughter went up 4 grades. The benefits of Poppy’s teaching were also seen in many of the other subjects that my daughter studied because she was able to help my daughter develop strategies in her approach to reading, comprehension and writing and we saw her confidence develop beyond recognition. When you have a learning difference, it’s not just about the effect on education, it is also about self-esteem. I cannot thank Poppy enough for helping my daughter to realise that she can be a high achiever and a confident learner. Poppy’s approach means that my daughter has a very manageable ‘learning difference’ and no longer a ‘learning disability.’

Poppy has literally changed my daughters life in Maths, before Poppy she had very little confidence in her own ability and was really struggling. As the subject has changed so much since I was at school, I too was struggling to help. Poppy tailors her tutoring style to meet her needs, and my daughter looks forward to her Marhs tutor session. I have seen my daughter’s confidence grow and grow to the point of moving up a set at school! I am so thankful to her for her patience, understanding and supportive qualities. I would recommend Poppy to anyone.

I worked with Poppy to support one of her students who needed German tuition. Poppy was always easy to work with, professional, and courteous. I couldn't recommend her highly enough to other tutors considering working with Poppy!

We decided to get a bit of last minute help for our daughter who was struggling with her GCSE English. Poppy was absolutely fantastic! She managed to fit us in for weekly slots at her busiest time of year, and was very accommodating. My daughter was suffering from extreme anxiety and Poppy was so calm, friendly and lovely to her, making revision much more understandable. We would highly recommend Poppy to anyone needing additional support. Our daughter got a grade 2 and 3 in her English mocks, and has just received her actual results at grades 6 & 8!!! Thank you so much.

What can i say, I feel we have found the perfect tutor. Maths GCSE Chess Physics We had been struggling with our year 6 son for a couple of years as he has a natural aptitude for mathematics and was not getting any challenge from school and disengaging. After talking with numerous tutors i found Tim and had the most positive engaging conversation and his passion was unbelievable. The relationship our Son and Tim have developed is truly amazing, so much so that we have now increased lessons to include chess and Physics.......If Tim taught sewing i am sure Oscar would engage 100% he is just that kind of guy that make everything interesting. Our son is now looking to take his Maths GCSE a few years early and that is all down to Tim. he is now engaged, passionate and looks forward to every lesson. Communication is fantastic, we have regular conversations and a lot of discussions about direction and progress. Hands down the best investment we could be making for our Son ( Daughter to start shortly!!)

Tim has made a huge difference in my daughter's A-Levels maths. She was really struggling to understand the jump from GCSE to A-Levels maths. Her teachers at school went through the lessons very quickly. Tim explained all the topics my daughter found difficult. As a result she went from a B to A☆. This enhanced her confidence. Tim has a very personable and easy teaching approach. I recommend him highly

Tim has really helped my daughter with her math confidence. She was completely blocked when it came to maths. Tim has created a wonderful rapport with her and convinced her that math is not so terrible after all, I cannot stress enough what an achievement this is! Her teacher at school has seen improvements in her knowledge but mostly her attitude, which is so important.

We are so pleased that we contacted Tim to support our 12 year old son’s Maths learning. After some negative experiences of Maths in Year 6 and year 7, his confidence in Maths was low. He had been moved down a group after a low test result and many changes of teacher in Year 7. After an initial chat with Tim, I was so impressed with his knowledge and understanding of Maths learning. Straight away, he was able to build our son’s confidence and he started going from strength to strength. Soon, he was achieving top marks in tests and was top of his class. Consequently, he was moved up a group and is doing brilliantly. He is loving Maths again too. We can’t thank Tim enough and will certainly be contacting him again in the future

Cate is an excellent teacher for adults: patient, unpatronising, lively and witty. I have been having Spanish lessons with her for a few months and have made remarkable progress considering I started from scratch. The material she provides and way we are progressing is just right for an adult learner who comes at the learning in fits and bursts. As well as being erudite and a born linguist, Cate has a talent for meeting your needs with understanding and teaching pragmatic day-to-day constructions rather than school-book language. I'd wholeheartedly recommend her if you are an adult wishing to pick up or polish your French or Spanish. We also laugh a lot!

Cate has been fantastic with my daughter. Following on from Covid, she was very behind and not working at ARE in both Maths and English, she was working towards. A year later, she is now working AT ARE & is at the same level as the rest of her class. Not only that but she has gained so much confidence & isn't always looking for help without trying first. Her reading and writing has improved dramatically. My daughter has loved Cate's soft & gentle approach and has always felt so cared for & looked after at Cate's sessions. Highly recommended 👌

Cate is absolutely fantastically. She has taken the time to get to know my son, and everything about his education. She has tutored him online which is so easy and has been really successful for us. He has definitely made improvements in the time he has been attending sessions. I would thoroughly recommend Cate to anyone.

My daughter currently has tutoring with Cate for English in preparation for her GCSE examinations. My daughter has really enjoyed these sessions from the start, and looks forward to them! Cate has been reassuring and given my daughter confidence. The sessions are creative and have been very helpful and inspiring, whether in person or on Zoom. I am very grateful to have found Cate and would highly recommend.

Amelia at South Coast Tutors is fantastic, can't recommend her highly enough. My daughter loves her sessions with her and has grown massively in confidence with maths, verbal reasoning and non verbal reasoning since being tutored by Amelia. She is brilliant at tailoring sessions to each individual child's needs. My daughter has successfully passed the 11+ and ISEB pre test with Amelia's help.

Thank you so much for being part of my son’s last-minute Maths support. He received a 5 in his mock exam in January, but 5 months later, with your professional teaching skills, he scored a 7! Amelia really boosted his confidence, and he has been accepted into his first-choice sixth form. Thank you! 🤩

Amelia was fantastic! Our daughters lacked confidence going into their GCSE Maths, but with Amelia's patient guidance and personalised approach, they both achieved their goal of a Level 8 grade. Her clear explanations and positive attitude made even the most complex concepts understandable and boosted their motivation. We highly recommend Amelia, thank you.

Amelia has been helping me prepare for university Maths for the past year and a half. She has been extremely helpful in teaching me so much that my school never taught and my understanding of Maths is at a significantly higher level because of it. I was able to bring questions of high difficultly (ie. step questions) that we would work through together, hence not only giving me the answer but showing how to get to the answer. Her help also helped me achieve a high score in MAT and succeed in Oxbridge interviews.

Brighter minds was recommended to us by two friends who used the service before us. Our son was shy and quiet but Lee believed in him & brought out the best in him. He went on to gain a great score in the 11+ plus exams. Brighter minds Broadstone is the place to go for all your child’s needs for 11+ or GCSEs . Highly recommend

Lee was recommended to us via a friend and what a recommendation! Our son had a wonderful experience and the benefits of Lee's tutoring helped build his confidence, as well as helped him prepare for his 11+. The advice, guidance and support Lee provided us as parents was invaluable as we supported our son through his preparations for the test. Without Lee's tutoring he would have found the process overwhelming and difficult. In the end, he found it to be a positive experience and we are very proud of him. I really couldn't recommend Lee highly enough.

Lee at Brighter Minds gave our child confidence to enjoy learning new skills, in preparation for the 11 plus Grammar test. He is also honest, if this is not right for your child, he will let you know. Importantly he asks the parents to remain calm and trust his process. The results speak for themselves. Our Child loved attending the weekly sessions and will miss his teaching style. We would 100% recommend his sessions.

As a secondary teacher, I can wholeheartedly recommend Lee. His statistical approach is very reassuring to parents, and he knows his stuff! He also has a pragmatic approach to teaching 10 year old boys, and knows that a lollipop can go a long way towards motivating them. My son enjoyed his tuition, despite not being a school- lover. We also saw an improvement in his school performance which I have no doubt is owing to the tuition over the year.
