Expert CIPS Tuition,
Just for You.
Private tuition is our most personalised training option. You’ll work directly with Katie Jarvis-Grove FCIPS in one to one sessions that are shaped entirely around your learning goals, pace, and schedule.
Unlike group courses, every minute is focused on you, your questions, your weak areas, and the specific modules you need help with. It’s the fastest, most effective way to build confidence and get exam-ready.
Private tuition is available for all CIPS levels (Level 2 through Level 6) and can be booked as individual sessions or as a structured package covering a full module.

Private Tuition Is
Ideal If You…

Need Help with a Specific Module
Struggling with a particular topic? Private sessions let Katie focus entirely on the areas you find most challenging, with tailored examples and explanations.

Are Preparing for a Resit
If you’ve had an unsuccessful exam attempt, private tuition gives you intensive, targeted coaching to address the gaps and go in confident next time.

Want to Fast-Track Your Progress
Working to a tight deadline or want to accelerate through a level? One to one sessions let you move at your own pace without waiting for a cohort schedule.

Study Elsewhere but Need Extra Support
Not getting the support you need from your current provider? Many of our private tuition students study elsewhere but come to Katie for the expert guidance that makes the difference.

Prefer a Fully Personalised Approach
Some learners get more from one to one attention than group settings. If you want training that’s 100% tailored to your role, sector, and learning style, private tuition is for you.

Are Aiming for Top Marks
If you’re not just looking to pass but want to achieve a distinction or the highest possible grade, private tuition gives you the edge with in-depth exam technique coaching.

Posted on Google Rob BookerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Katie and Lynn were incredibly supportive throughout my level 4 course and took all of the administrative hassle out of arranging material and exams. The course material they supply is concise and to the point making it easy to digest and understand. I did my level 4 in my own time whilst having a full time job, 2 small children and going through the process of moving house and I managed to pass all 8 exams first time. I would absolutely recommend them.Posted on Google kimlazTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

FAQs
Common questions about
one to one sessions.
-
How are sessions delivered?All sessions are delivered online via video call. This means you can learn from anywhere, no travel required. Sessions are recorded (with your permission) so you can revisit them later.
-
Can I book sessions around my work schedule?Absolutely. We offer flexible scheduling including evenings and weekends. We’ll find times that work for you.
-
How many sessions will I need?It depends on your situation. Some students need just one or two sessions for targeted exam prep, while others benefit from a full module package. Katie will recommend the right number after your initial conversation.
-
Can my employer pay for private tuition?Yes. We can provide a quote and invoice directly to your employer. Private tuition is a popular option for employer-funded CPD and upskilling.
-
What if I need to reschedule a session?We understand that work and life can be unpredictable. However, we do ask for at least one weeks’ notice for rescheduling, and we’ll find an alternative time that works.
