Tutor applications

Join our tutor network.

We work with a small, curated panel of subject specialists. If you teach A-Level Sciences or Maths, IB Diploma subjects, or coach for Oxbridge admissions or the UCAT, we want to hear from you.

Who we hire

Senior specialists, not generalists.

We hire current and former Heads of Department, exam-board markers, IB examiners, and PhD holders in their subject specialism. The panel is small by design and we are selective.

We are particularly interested in tutors with experience of more than one exam board (Edexcel, AQA, OCR, Cambridge), IB Diploma examiners, and tutors with direct admissions-testing experience (TARA, ESAT, MAT, UCAT, Oxbridge interviews).

The vetting process

How we vet. Same for everyone.

An interview, a check that you hold legitimate qualifications, confirmation of your teaching experience, written references requested directly from your referees, an enhanced DBS check for UK-based tutors or a police certificate for those overseas, and mandatory safeguarding training. We only engage experienced teachers, and every tutor completes our Safer Recruitment process before meeting a student.

How to apply

By email, with a CV.

Send your CV with a short cover note describing the subjects, exam boards, and age groups you teach. If you have current exam-board marking or IB examining experience, please name the board and your level.

We respond to every application within ten working days. If we want to take it forward we will arrange a subject-knowledge interview as the first step.
