Private tutoring for primary school
Private lessons in primary school offer individualized and tailor-made support for your child. A dedicated coach comes to your home to help them master key subjects, fill in gaps, and boost their confidence, by adapting to their pace and specific needs.
Rebuild the basics before the gaps grow
In primary school, almost everything builds on what came before. A concept poorly understood in 3rd year (times tables, fractions, reading instructions) causes trouble beyond that year: it comes back to block the pupil two years later, often without anyone making the connection.
So the coach starts again from where the child lost track. They work with the child's own exercise books and their school's programme, at the child's pace, and without the label of "the one who can't keep up".
At this age, the most lasting gain is a child who dares to raise their hand again.
When the need is the daily work set by the school rather than one subject, we offer homework support.

Support adapted to learning disorders
ADHD, dyslexia, dyscalculia, autism (ASD), dysorthographia, dysphasia… Some children need a different way of explaining, organising and learning. These difficulties can affect their confidence, motivation and independence with schoolwork. My Sherpa takes the time to understand your child's profile and needs in order to select a suitable coach. The coach adjusts their pace, explanations and methods to help your child progress, develop concrete strategies and regain confidence in their abilities.

Private lessons in primary school: your questions
One session a week is the most common pace in primary school: regular enough for the child to make progress, spaced out enough for them to practise in between. The pace is part of the programme set with your educational advisor and is adjusted along the way.
The first three sessions serve as a trial period. If your child doesn't get on with the coach during this period, you continue the programme with another coach from the team, at no extra cost.
Yes. A child who is ahead sometimes switches off as much as a child who is struggling, because nothing requires any effort from them anymore. The programme then focuses on going deeper and on working methods rather than on catching up.
