How We Work

Based on your enquiry, Dulwich Tutors match you with one or more suitable tutors for you to choose from. The more information you can share, the more we can help - if you can, give details of exam boards, your school, individual support needs or learning preferences and your location so we can connect you with the best available tutors. Teacher notes, a school report, examples of student’s work or previous exam scripts will help your tutor to support academic progress from the very first tutorial.

For your reassurance and peace of mind, we have already put together some of the very best tutors for you, observed them teach a student, interviewed them in depth, checked their professional references, CV, qualifications, self-employment status, testimonials from previous clients, as well as their safeguarding knowledge and enhanced DBS status. We work with local schools and Education Authorities to provide a highly effective service you can trust.

Skilled tutors are often in very great demand, and frequently can themselves pick and choose the students that they choose to work with. We can help you approach them and develop a positive, fruitful relationship. Notably, tutors at more advanced levels or with less common subject specialisms often offer tuition online. Look out for positive testimonials from previous students and parents beneath each tutor’s profile.

If a particular tutor captures your interest, just call our team on 0208 653 3502 during office hours or complete an enquiry form with all the relevant details. This will enable us to check their current availability to take on new students, and to share their hourly rates.

Dulwich Tutors’ reliable service means that you can have faith your tutor will have the right skills and confirmed experience to support any student, so they can focus on developing a positive working relationship and making progress towards their individual learning goals. If for any reason a student does not ‘click’ with their choice of tutor, we always hope to have an alternative to suggest.

Most clients, students and tutors like a regular tutorial time each week, although most tutors can be mutually flexible to suit any changes to your weekly plans. As long as twenty-four hours’ notice is given in advance, tuition can be cancelled or paused at any point with no charge. Once the date and time of a first tutorial is confirmed, we put you directly in touch with the tutor of your choice so you can both introduce yourselves, discuss the student and their tuition plan together.

It is worth bearing in mind that, unlike childcare providers, tutors are rarely ever placed in sole duty of care, so a responsible adult should plan to be present while tuition takes place.
