I believe teaching is about providing children with valuable opportunities in which they develop into intelligent and confident learners, who can take ownership of their learning.

Aaliya B
As a parent, I’m very happy with the support my son has received so far from Aaliya. She is friendly, reliable, and puts in extra time to organise resources for each lesson. She tailors the lessons to my child’s needs and always goes over the work carefully to make sure my child fully understands it. After just a few sessions, I can already see my child becoming more confident. I would definitely recommend her to other parents.

Cedra J
Miss Cedra has been tutoring my y10 daughter for a few weeks now and she is finding the support super helpful. My daughter had a retest and said she found answering the 8 mark questions much easier and felt a lot more confident in some of the areas she was struggling. Would definitely recommend Miss Cedra as she has a wide knowledge on subjects and is patient and attentive.

Dan B
I’ve been having online saxophone lessons with Dan, and I honestly couldn’t recommend him enough. He’s been super supportive, flexible around my schedule, and always makes the lessons feel relaxed but focused. I can feel myself making positive progress, and each session builds on the last in a really clear way. I always look forward to our lessons and come away feeling motivated and confident. If you’re thinking about learning saxophone, Dan’s a great choice.

My child wants to go to a competitive sixth form. Can a tutor help them get the right GCSEs?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors can provide targeted support to help your child achieve the GCSE results they need. By focusing on specific areas of the curriculum, improving exam technique, and building confidence, a tutor can help them secure a place at their chosen sixth form or college.
We're aiming for a place at the University of Birmingham. Can a tutor support my child's A-Levels?
Definitely. Many of our tutors are specialists in A-Level subjects and have experience helping students meet the entry requirements for top universities. They can help your child master complex topics and prepare thoroughly for their final exams, giving them the best chance of success.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's simple to find the perfect match. You can filter tutors by subject and level, and then read their profiles to learn about their experience and teaching style. Reading reviews from other parents is also a great way to find a tutor who will be a good fit for your child.
How much does tutoring in Handsworth cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, so you can easily find a highly-rated, professional tutor who fits your budget.
How can I be sure the tutors are safe to work with my child?
Your child's safety is our absolute priority. All our tutors have been interviewed by our team and have passed a background check. We are very selective, with only 1 in every 8 applicants being successful, so you can have complete peace of mind.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! You can find expert tutors for coding languages like Python, musical instruments like guitar and piano, and even professional skills. It's a great way for your child to explore new interests.
