How to hire a tutoring pro in United Kingdom

  1. Ask for a DBS check — note an Enhanced DBS can only be obtained via an agency or umbrella body; independents can show a Basic DBS
  2. Match the tutor to the exact exam board (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC) — papers and mark schemes differ
  3. Check for Tutors' Association membership as a voluntary quality signal
  4. Take references and run a paid trial lesson
  5. For 11+, GCSE and A-level, book early — good tutors fill up by January for summer exams
  6. Agree online vs in-person rates and a 24-hour cancellation policy in writing

Tutoring is unregulated in the UK — anyone can tutor without qualifications or checks. Enhanced DBS checks are only available through agencies or umbrella bodies, so an independent tutor showing a Basic DBS plus solid references is the realistic vetting standard.

Frequently asked questions

Is online tutoring as effective as in-person?

For most secondary-level subjects, yes — shared whiteboards and screen sharing work well, and you get a wider tutor pool at lower rates. Younger children (under ~10) and hands-on subjects usually do better in person, where the tutor can manage attention directly.

Is group tutoring worth it compared to one-on-one?

Small-group sessions (2-4 students) cost each family roughly 40-60% of the private rate and work well for exam-technique classes. One-on-one wins when the student has specific gaps, learning differences, or is far behind — the whole point is tailoring pace.

How much does a private tutor cost per hour?

Rates scale with three things: subject level (primary school cheapest, exam-year and university-level most expensive), tutor credentials (students charge least, certified teachers most), and format (online runs 20-40% below in-person). Get quotes from both an agency and an independent to see the spread.

Do tutors discount for block bookings?

Commonly 5-15% for prepaid blocks of 10+ hours. Only prepay once you've done two or three sessions and seen the tutor work — a discount is worthless if you're locked into the wrong tutor.

Do private tutors need to be qualified teachers?

No country in our coverage requires it — tutoring is unregulated almost everywhere. That cuts both ways: excellent tutors exist without teaching credentials, but the burden of vetting subject knowledge, safeguarding checks and references sits entirely on you.

What do GCSE and A-level tutors charge in the UK?

GCSE tutoring typically runs £25-45/hr and A-level £30-60/hr, with qualified teachers and London-based tutors at the top end. Online lessons usually save £5-15/hr versus in-person.

When should we book an 11+ or grammar-school prep tutor?

Twelve to eighteen months before the September exams — the established 11+ tutors in selective areas run waiting lists. Starting in Year 4 for a Year 6 exam is normal, not excessive, in competitive regions.
