Home Education tutoring supports families who educate their children outside of mainstream school. Tutors provide subject-specific support across the full curriculum, exam preparation for GCSE and A-Level qualifications through exam centres, and help structuring a home education timetable. Many home-educating families use multiple tutors for different subjects.

Home-educated students benefit enormously from subject specialists who can bring depth and structure to a subject that a parent generalist may not be able to provide — particularly in GCSE and A-Level sciences, modern languages and mathematics.
An online Home Educationtutor works one-to-one at your child's pace, targeting the exact gaps holding them back — without the distraction of a classroom.
How does online Home Education tutoring work?
Online Home Education tutoring takes place over video call — Zoom, Google Meet or a dedicated tutoring platform. Tutors share their screen, use interactive whiteboards and can annotate documents or worksheets in real time. For most subjects, research consistently shows online sessions are as effective as in-person. The main advantage is access to the best specialists nationwide rather than only those within driving distance.
How much does an online Home Education tutor cost?
Online Home Education tutors in the UK typically charge £25–£65/hr depending on the level, the tutor's qualifications and experience. Online rates are sometimes slightly lower than in-person because there are no travel costs on either side. On TutorLab every tutor sets their own rate and it is visible on their profile before you make contact — no agency commission on top.
What do I need for an online Home Education tutoring session?
A reliable internet connection, a laptop or tablet with a working camera and microphone, and a quiet space to work. Some tutors use a shared digital whiteboard (Bitpaper, Miro or Google Jamboard) — particularly useful for maths and sciences. Your tutor will tell you exactly which tools they use before the first session.
How do I find the right online Home Education tutor?
Browse the profiles above and look for a tutor whose experience matches your child's current level and target grade. Read their bio, check the subjects and exam boards they cover, and look at their hourly rate. When you make an enquiry, describe your child's year group, current grade and what you want to achieve — a good tutor will respond quickly and often suggest a short introductory session so you can both assess the fit before committing.
