Tuition at primary school is generally used for one of two purposes:
The earlier a child can be supported in their learning the greater the impact of the tuition – which is why we recommend starting at primary school age rather than waiting till GCSE or A level.
One to one tuition is a popular choice for many schools because lessons can be targeted entirely to each individual child’s gaps. According to studies by the leading educational research centre the Education Endowment Foundation, one to one tuition can add up to 5 months’ progress to a child’s learning.
In a class of 30 at school it's not always easy for primary school teachers to provide individual support to the learners who need it most.
Our community of tutors is on hand to provide pupils with focused, one-to-one attention when and where they need it. Tutors are trained to spot and address misconceptions as they occur, helping to boost pupil progress more quickly.
Our online maths lessons give pupils the opportunity to talk through maths questions and build key numeracy skills with their own personal mathematics teacher.
Tutors ask questions like 'how did you work that out?' and 'could you use any other methods?' to ensure pupils have understood the underlying maths behind each question, not just a quick way to find the answer.

Because all our online lessons are one-to-one, our maths tutors can provide real-time feedback to help pupils understand where they might have gone wrong and discuss strategies for reaching the correct answer.
Parents and teachers can also access regular reports to understand where children are making good progress and which concepts still need more work.
The Third Space Learning model of primary school tuition has been developed over several years. Each pupil connects to their own personal qualified teacher who has been specially trained to teach online maths lessons to children from 6 to 12 years old.
Each pupil follows a bespoke sequence of lessons following the Key Stage 1 and Key Stage 2 primary maths national curriculum and aligned to their year group. Teachers are kept in control and up to date at every step of the way, making sure the online tuition is in line with their schoolwork.
Schools choose with pupils they’d like to support, with most schools choosing pupils eligible for Pupil Premium, making private tuition no longer only an option for those families that afford a private tutor or home tutoring.
By working closely to plug gaps, secure core concepts and build confidence with their own personal tutor, pupils progress faster and, in turn, are better equipped for the challenges ahead, whether that’s entrance exams, secondary schools, grammar schools, GCSEs or A-levels.
Third Space Learning has been great for SATs preparation but also for developing fluency and reasoning across KS2.
We have had 100% success in KS2 SATs with the pupils we have had take part in Third Space Learning.
After two terms of one to one tuition from Third Space Learning, not only did our pupils reach expected standard, but they doubled their scores in KS2 SATs.
My son is in year 6, he has been tutored for 5 months. Miss Himika is really good teacher. She is patient and teaches well. Her performance stands out from the rest clearly. Honestly one of the best teachers.
Third Space Learning helped my Year 2 boy go from the bottom of the class to the top in two months. The lessons were well-planned and the teaching was effective. The platform was easy to use and reliable and the support team were excellent.
