Who Are We Looking For?

Do you want to help students improve their grades? Do you want to work without pressure to accept every enquiry?

We recommend tutors for primary, GCSE and A-Level students. This includes in-person work near Harrogate and online work across the UK.

Our tutors are all qualified teachers with classroom experience. They are passionate about their subject, motivate students and build confidence.

Registering does not guarantee work. We take recruitment seriously. You will complete an interview and full checks, including Enhanced DBS, ID, qualifications, and references.

How Do We Work?

Tutors work on a self-employed basis through our agency. We qualify every enquiry before passing it on.

Payments are made through TutorCruncher. Your share is paid directly to you.

There is no need to create invoices or chase payments. Payouts are made roughly every 2 weeks.

We support our tutors and remove admin where possible. Our rates reflect the experience parents expect.

Many tutors work elsewhere too. They use us for additional high-quality opportunities.

We always arrange an interview which we do online.

Tutors often describe the work as flexible and rewarding. It suits those who have left teaching or want balance alongside school roles.
