Where Tutors are valued, education thrives

Come and join us!

Our mission is to be your tutoring success partner, supporting you in tutoring the way you want, enabling you to spend more time doing what you love.

Our Story

When you set up as a tutor, your intention would have been to share your expertise in your specialist field, watching your students confidence grow and making a difference to students lives.

At the time, you probably hadn't anticipated how much an additional burden 'business matters' could be, and how much this would get in the way of tutoring availability and tutoring time, having to allocate time to finding new students, managing bookings, cancellations, invoices, technology, accounting and keeping up to date with compliance, industry updates and safeguarding.

When you partner with us, we do all of this, so you don't have to!

Why work with us

Supporting you as an individual

We support our tutors, enabling you to spend more time on interaction and practical tutoring. From onboarding new tutors to scheduling, invoicing and finding new students to work with, we have invested in systems and processes to simplify, automate and support you to focus on your specialism and what you do best.

Structured Process and Resources providing clarity

We provide you with structured processes and resources. We manage student and tutor expectations to provide transparency and maintain efficiency.

A Sense of Community

We love helping tutors to excel in their own way - whatever that may mean to you. We understand that every tutor is unique.

Tutoring can be quite a lonely, isolating profession at times, and not everyone wants to grow their business by taking on more tutors. Through working with us we can introduce you to other tutors to create connections and support you day to day.

Keeping you up to date

We can support you in keeping up-to-date with new legislation, whether that be in relation to tutoring or business.

We are proud members of The Tutors Association , the UK's leading professional membership body for tutors and the supplementary education sector, and dedicated to representing and supporting tutors through high standards, valuable resources, and a collaborative community.

How we operate
