Tailored Online Support, Designed for Your Child
We understand that finding the right tutor can feel overwhelming, especially if it's your first time. That's why we take the guesswork out of it. Tell us about your child's needs, their learning style, and what you hope to achieve. We then thoughtfully match them with a tutor who isn't just an expert in their subject, but also a skilled communicator who can build their confidence and help them truly connect with their learning.
Forget passive video calls. Our interactive online classroom is purpose-built for learning. Your child and their tutor will work together on a shared digital whiteboard, solving problems, sketching diagrams, and annotating texts in real time. Sessions can be recorded, so they can revisit complex topics before an exam. This isn't just conversation; it's an engaging, collaborative lesson where your child actively participates and builds understanding.
From your home in South Shields, your child gains access to expert tutors from across the UK, without any travel or disruption to your family's busy schedule. Online sessions can fit around after-school clubs or weekend commitments, offering genuine flexibility. And if, for any reason, the first tutor isn't quite the right fit, we’ll happily cover your first session with a new match. It’s support that works for your child, in your home.

Please read my profile before booking
I’m an experienced online English tutor. I’ve been tutoring online for many years. I’ve also worked as a Learning Support Assistant (Teaching Assistant) offline.I frequently help students to learn how to read, write and think. In addition to this, for the vast majority of the time, I do help students to improve their grades. However, a willingness from the student to work both during our lessons and outside of our lessons is a necessity. If that willingness is not there, there is only so much I can do. Therefore I demand this willingness. I’m not strict and authoritarian. I’m relaxed and patie...

Kate H
Kate is a lovely tutor. She explains things so well and helps by going through past papers. She has helped me from being on very low grades in year 12 to an A and A star at the end of year 12, and helping me to maintain this through year 13. Would really recommend Kate to anyone.

Eman T
I had an amazing experience with Eman as my a level biology tutor, will always recommend her to anyone!! She supported me throughout my A-level Biology revision and made such a huge difference to both my understanding and confidence.
Her lessons were always tailored to what i needed support with the most and clearly explained areas I previously struggled with. I truly appreciated her encouragement and support and how she created a comfortable learning environment where i felt comfortable to ask even the simplest questions. She really boosted my confidence and understanding before my exams. Thanks so much Emann!!!!

Jon P
Jon has vast knowledge of Physics, friendly, approachable, pays attention to the person he is tutoring and can adapt to changes. He has been tutoring my daughter which has helped her confidence in A level Physics. Jon is a brilliant physics tutor as she was able to pick up my daughter’s weaknesses in a topic which they tackled together to help my daughter have a crystal understanding of the topic which increased her confidence in the topic. Jon is good at his job and a Physics teacher you can bet on. I highly recommend him.

Lesley H
We cannot recommend Lesley highly enough. From the very beginning, she built a wonderful rapport with our daughter and helped her develop both her English skills and, just as importantly, her confidence. Her lessons were engaging, supportive and tailored to our daughter's needs, making a real difference to her progress.
Our daughter was delighted with her exam results, and we genuinely believe that Lesley's teaching played a significant part in this success. Her ability to explain concepts clearly, encourage independent thinking and create a positive learning environment has been invaluable.
We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Lesley and are so grateful for the time, effort and dedication she has invested in helping our daughter achieve her potential. We would not hesitate to recommend her to other families looking for an outstanding English tutor.
