All our tutors are teacher qualified, enhanced DBS and reference checked and  have a proven track record of teaching and private tuition. Most of our tutors are also experienced examiners. 

 

Our tutors can be seen in the Tutor Gallery which provides details of experience and qualifications alongside rates, testimonials and a short bio summarising each individual tutor's approach. Our aim is to match each student with the best tutor for them, depending on expertise, experience, availability, teaching style, personality, and individual needs. 

Background

One Stop Tutors is owned and managed by Jacqui Cardani who is a full-time Biology A level and GCSE Science tutor

lucy about

Jacqui moved to North Yorkshire in 1997 after completion of her PGCE and spent several years teaching at Huntington School in York and also works as an examiner for AQA.  She  lives in Knaresborough with her husband and two children, one of whom is studying Veterinary Medicine and the other is a trainee mechanic at Tockwith Motorsports.   As a parent and tutor, Jacqui can see two perspectives, both of which influence the management of One Stop Tutors. She is well aware of the current stresses within the education system and in applying to university  or the workplace so is able to support students and parents along the way. 

It was by chance that the idea for One Stop Tutors came about. After tutoring her niece and seeing the benefits of one-to-one tuition first-hand, Jacqui set up as an independent tutor in the summer of 2014. Immediately taken aback by local demand, Jacqui was inundated by requests for ‘do you know a good tutor for Maths, English, Chemistry …’ Having worked in sales and the community as well as teaching, Jacqui knew lots of potential tutors and referred students locally. From here One Stop Tutors was born, providing a platform for other tutors to promote themselves without the cost of advertising, setting up a website or paying big commission fees from each lesson to an agency.

Approach

One Stop Tutors’ main objective is to provide excellent tutors with the reassurance that all academic and safety checks have been done already. We take an altruistic approach, charging only a small monthly fee to tutors so that our tutors feel valued, students get good value for money and it also allows us to take on only the very best  teachers and tutors, many of whom are experienced examiners. In return One Stop Tutors check enhanced DBS status, check academic references, interview tutors to ascertain suitability and most importantly we continue ongoing checks and receive feedback on individual tutors from students and parents. It also means that in circumstances where parents feel uncomfortable querying a tutor directly, they can ask a question via One Stop Tutors. 

There is no extra cost to students for this service, but we do ask all students to be willing to provide feedback after a few lessons and testimonials where they feel it is appropriate.
