About Our Tutors

about tutors

All our tutors have the right mix of academic expertise, teaching ability and interpersonal skills to make tuition relevant and inspiring. They are all qualified to degree level, teacher qualified and experienced in teaching and tuition. Tutors are familiar with AQA, OCR, Edexcel and IAL exam boards in  their subjects and many are experienced examiners

. All tutors are enhanced DBS and reference checked to ensure their suitability for private tuition work.

Most tutors offer online tuition across the UK but still live and work locally as well as offering face to face tuition in  Harrogate, Knaresborough, Ripon and surrounding areas. They all provide one to one and small group tuition, many tutors also offer exam-focused revision groups to improve exam techniques and grades. 

Our tutors take a holistic approach to tuition in that they support the academic learning, building of confidence and development of long term skills in their students – not just a short, quick fix to jump through ‘educational hoops’, but they encourage independence and ‘thinking skills’ so that students continue to flourish beyond the duration of their tuition. All our tutors work as part of a supportive team in which they share skills, teaching strategies and general good practice.
