How do I find a private tutor in the UK?

Browse tutor profiles by subject and location on TutorLab. Compare experience, subjects and the prices provided. If a profile does not publish a price, ask for the full quote before booking.

How much does a private tutor cost in the UK?

The 136 published profiles in our price sample advertise starting family prices from £12 to £190 per hour, all in. The sample excludes missing prices and prices below the report's inclusion threshold. Ask your tutor for a quote for your subject, level and lesson format.

Is the price on a profile the price I pay?

Yes. The price shown is one all-in price, so the price you see is the price you pay. How it is made up is in our terms at tutorlab.uk/terms.

Is online or in-person tutoring better?

Both work well. Online tutoring opens a much larger pool of specialists and often costs less. In-person suits younger children or those who find it harder to focus on a screen.

What happens if a tutor does not reply?

Message two or three tutors rather than one, since availability changes week to week. You can also ask TutorLab to match you: you describe what you need once, and up to 3 tutors who fit can each reply to you in a separate chat.

Are reviews trustworthy?

Reviews only from real, paid lessons. Every review is attached to a real booking. TutorLab does not publish an overall star rating, because most tutors have too few reviews for an average to mean anything.

How do I know if a tutor is good?

Read the bio carefully. A good tutor explains their approach, not just their qualifications. Look for specificity (exam board, grade targets, teaching method). Always do a trial session before committing to regular bookings.
