Learning with BPT :
How Our Tutors Work With You
-
With BPT, your tutor will work with you directly to develop your bespoke learning plan, listening to your priorities, establishing rapport and building confidence.
The syllabus and resources for each student are determined as appropriate by the tutor: we can offer any subject listed on our website, all taught by a subject specialist.

As a BPT client, you will receive from our tutors the highest levels of expertise, professionalism and effort – a plan for your goals which is personalised and responsive to your needs.
All our tutorial lessons are one hour long, although there is the flexibility of course to arrange longer tutorial sessions. The frequency that students meet with their tutors varies from person to person, but one or two sessions a week is common for many of our students.
We pride ourselves on individually tailored tuition – we are committed to learning how our learners learns! Of the many variables in education, we excel at all that we can control, enabling learners to develop a love of learning, to aspire to their best possible prospects in education, and to realise the best version of themselves.

We understand that life is busy, which is why our online tuition is designed with flexibility and convenience at its core.
Our sessions are scheduled around you – just speak to your tutor to discuss the days and times that work best for you. We have the flexibility to cover various timezones and schedules, both weekday and weekends, during term-time and holidays.
We also have tutors available in certain physical locations (London, Oxford, Cambridge, Singapore, Bangkok) who can deliver in person sessions, either on a weekly basis or for intensive holiday sessions.

Alongside acquiring academic knowledge and skills, learning with our tutors will go far beyond in developing skills of enquiry and critical thinking. We employ the Socratic method, using questions to lead learning by enquiry and support the development of creative thinking and problem-solving.
