How we help
Every student has a unique mix of strengths and hurdles. We never use a standardised approach. We hire experienced tutors and give them space to teach in their style. All tutors are carefully interviewed before joining Sunbeam and share our commitment to compassionate, engaging teaching. Each has up-to-date safeguarding training, insurance and an Enhanced DBS certificate.
Our method
Focused 50-minute sessions with varied tasks, short breaks, and plenty of encouragement. Tutors are experts in their field and teach in their own style. We link strategies back to classwork so progress and confidence translates to school.
Assistive technology
When helpful, we introduce practical tools and show students how to use them independently at school and at home. These can include simulation tools and visualisers, graphing and calculator apps, text-to-speech and dictation programmes for write-ups, screen readers, vocabulary tools and simple note-taking systems.
