Support Tailored to Your Child
You don't need to become an expert in primary education to find the right support. Just tell us a little about your child's learning style and what they need help with. We'll then carefully match them with a small selection of primary tutors who truly understand how to build understanding and confidence, not just impart knowledge. It's a real recommendation, made for your child.
All sessions happen online in our interactive classroom, meaning no travel and no disruption to your busy family life. Your child can access expert primary tutors from across the UK, at times that work best for you. And if the first tutor isn't quite the right fit, we'll cover your first session with a new one, no questions asked.

I am absolutely delighted with the lessons! The communication is brilliant, and the tutor is highly engaging and interactive during online classes. She has a fantastic approach not only to my son, Kevin, but also to me as a parent. I couldn't be happier with how things are going, and I will definitely be booking lessons for a long time to come. Highly recommended :)

asked questions
See all FAQs We believe in finding the perfect fit. Instead of having you sort through many profiles, we ask a few simple questions about your child – their age, their learning goals, and what areas of primary education they need support with, like KS1 assessments or KS2 SATs preparation. Our team then uses this information to suggest a small number of primary tutors who we believe will be an excellent match for their specific needs and personality.
