Online Design and Technology Tutors

It can be tough watching your child struggle with a subject that’s meant to be creative and hands-on. Whether it’s getting to grips with complex theory or bringing a practical project to life, it’s hard when you don’t have the answers yourself. But even when you cannot help them with the subject, you can still help them. Our Tutor Finder does the work for you, asking a few simple questions about your child and what they need. We then find the right person for them. No browsing, no guesswork.

When projects stop being a problem

With the right support, the frustration can lift. Suddenly, the gap between a great idea and the finished product doesn't seem so wide. A good tutor helps your child connect the dots between theory and practice, building their confidence to experiment and solve problems on their own. This isn't just about coursework grades. It’s about your child feeling capable and creative again. It’s about them developing skills they can be proud of, ready for their exams and whatever they choose to do next.

Matched to the right D&T tutor, without the guesswork

Our Tutor Finder asks the questions you might not know to ask — about your child's specific exam board, their goals, and how they like to learn. Based on that, we recommend a small, personalised shortlist of tutors we would genuinely choose for them. Every tutor we recommend has been carefully vetted. Only 1 in 8 who apply are accepted, and all are ID-verified and DBS-checked before they can meet any child. It’s why over 4,100 parents have rated us 4.6 stars. Most families have their first lesson within days. It’s a low-pressure session for the tutor to get to know your child. And if it isn’t the right fit, our First Lesson Guarantee means we find someone else, at no extra charge.
