Tailored Exam Preparation for All UK Exam Boards
We teach our students how to do well in their exams so they can pursue their chosen career. Students resitting A-levels regularly achieve two grades higher than their previous results, sometimes more.
Most of our students gain places at Russell Group universities, such as Durham, York, UCL, and Exeter, to study Medicine, Dentistry, Veterinary Science, Law, Economics, History, or English.
One-to-One Tuition Courses
We offer the following routes of study:
- Retake courses for A and AS levels and GCSEs / IGCSEs
- Additional tuition whilst at school/college
- Fast-Track A levels in one year
- Two year A level courses and one year AS courses
- University entrance test preparation (UCAT, GMAT, LNAT etc)
- One Year GCSE / IGCSE courses
- Holiday tuition (ideal for boarders)
We also offer university undergraduate tuition support in some subjects.
You can take any combination of subjects and combine GCSE with A or AS levels.
We can prepare you for the exams of any UK exam board, so we can help you choose the specifications where the content and timing suit you.
How We Teach You
The teaching at Wessex Tutors is always one-to-one, just you and the tutor. This means your course is tailored to your needs and your rate of progress. You will cover a lot of ground quickly compared to group or class-based teaching.
The approach is sympathetic but firm, and importance is placed on keeping you motivated and optimistic.
Many students need guidance on how to study, and our tutors devote considerable attention to this. Students are taught to concentrate on the essentials of an argument; they are helped to plan their written work and to present it clearly and logically. As most students come to us for intensive exam courses, we place considerable emphasis on practising exam techniques and writing timed answers from past papers.
In addition to their tutorials, students are expected to complete between 3 and 5 hours of guided study per subject per week, including work which is marked by the tutor.
Reports on students' progress are sent at the end of each term and at half-term in the autumn.
The Principal and tutors are always available to discuss the work and progress of students with parents.
Enthusiastic, Expert Tutors
Our tutors have excellent reputations with their students and long-track records of success. Highly regarded, several are exam board Lead Examiners or Examiners, others have been Heads of Departments in schools and colleges, and others have Ph.Ds in the subjects they teach.
The tutors are familiar with the demands of intensive coaching, with teaching a variety of different specifications, and with teaching accelerated courses.
Our tutors know how best to help you succeed.
Your Exams
At the end of your course, you can sit your exams with us. We offer a friendly atmosphere and small rooms mean you’ll only be with 10 other candidates at most.

Terms and Conditions for Tuition
Parents & Students say …
"The tutors that my daughter had for Maths and Chemistry were excellent. She went from a D and a B to two A*s.
The tutors were engaging and helped to rekindle her interest in her subjects and regain the self confidence that she had lost at 6th form college. The success that she built every week, really helped her to believe in herself and her abilities again - and this has also extended into all areas of her life.
Using Wessex tutors was a stretch for us, but it was an investment that was really well worth it. I can't thank them enough for all they have done." – Charlotte Eglinton
