How to choose a tutor
Choosing a tutor is about more than finding someone nearby. Parents, carers, and students should compare experience, subjects, teaching style, availability, rates, and safety arrangements.
Start with the support needed
Think about the subject, level, exam board, lesson format, frequency, budget, and whether the learner needs confidence building, exam preparation, catch-up support, or specialist help.
Read profiles carefully
A useful profile should explain what the tutor teaches, who they work with, their experience, rates, location, online availability, and any self-declared or admin-seen information.
Carry out your own checks
Before arranging tuition, families should consider identity, qualifications, DBS certificate details where relevant, references, safeguarding arrangements, online safety, insurance, and suitability.
