Frequently asked questions (FAQS) about Private Tutoring

🚀 What is private tuition for?

Private tuition has rapidly evolved over recent years. While traditionally focused on after-school tutoring for children, it now caters to learners of all ages. With private tutors, you can enjoy personalised lessons in any subject or hobby; whether it's academic support, language learning, or improving a new skill!

📱 How does the FindTutors platform work?

FindTutors is one of the largest platforms in the UK for finding tutors and it is very easy to use. Type the subject you want to learn in the search engine and select the filters you want:

  • Mode: Do you prefer in person or online tutoring?
  • Level: Are you starting from scratch, or do you need advanced lessons?
  • Focus: Are you seeking classes for yourself, your child, or someone else?
  • Type: Are you looking for tailored classes, professional training, or something specific?

Remember, the more filters you use, the more specific your search will be and the easier it will be to find a tutor.

🏫 How to choose a private tutor?

To choose your private tutor, it is essential to review the profiles of the tutors. By comparing them, you will discover that some have more experience and studies than others. But the secret lies in the recommendations. How many ratings does the tutor you are interested in have? What do their students think? When finding a private teacher, be sure to check their qualifications and the level of lessons they offer.

💻 Can I find online tutors on FindTutors?

FindTutors we have more than 50,000 online tutors. The boom in online tutoring has been growing rapidly, with many discovering that learning from the comfort of home is both productive and cost-effective. Online tutoring provides unmatched flexibility, saving you time and money while enhancing your learning experience.

💸 How much do private lessons cost?

The price of private lessons online and in-person is determined by several factors: the level of the student, the studies and experience of the private teacher, the location, the type of class... But if you want to know how much private lessons generally cost, the price is between £10 and £20.

How to Find a Tutor in the UK

Private tuition has traditionally been the best way to get extra support for school. However, in recent years, it has expanded into all areas. Nowadays, it is possible to learn a language, an instrument or any hobby with an in-person or online private tutor.

On this page, private teachers publish their adverts according to the subject they teach so that you can contact them easily. Through this advert, you will know everything you need to know about each one: their studies, their experience, their interests, their methodology... So it is very easy to find a tutor who suits your needs. 

With private lessons, you will be able to enjoy personalised lessons where the tutor is only there for you. This creates the perfect atmosphere for you to ask any questions, review any terms you don't quite understand and focus on achieving your goals.

Below, we will tell you all about finding private teachers and as well as everything you need to know about private tuition in the UK.

Types of private tuition

Did you know that you can choose your private lessons depending on the type of classes you want? Private teachers in the UK offer both face-to-face and online tutoring, and depending on what you are looking for, you may even be interested in other types of private classes. Here are the some of the most popular types: 

  • Face-to-face classes: Want to see your tutor face-to-face? Booking face-to-face lessons means you can do them anywhere. It doesn't have to be at your home, it could also be in a library or any other place you both agree on.
  • Private tuition at home: For this type of class, the private teacher comes to your home. If you have a tight schedule or want to save on transport, private tuition at home is a good option for you. 
  • Online tutoring: You also have the option of finding online tutors. In this way, both of you can connect to your virtual classroom and have all the digital resources at your disposal.

Finding tutors: A step-by-step guide

When it comes to finding a private teacher for your child or yourself, there are thousands of ways to go about it. On our website, we make it easy for you. Follow these 4 steps and you'll find a tutor before the end of the day:

  • Filter: What subject do you want? What type of classes? What level are you? Where? Filter as much as you can and find a list of private tutors near you or online that meet your needs.
  • Compare profiles: Now it's time to compare. Prioritise tutors with studies, teaching methods and experience that fits your needs. You can also look at the tutor's rating and read reviews from previous students. 
  • Check availability and price: The last step is to look at the tutor's timetable and check that the price fits your budget.
  • Get in touch: Now, there is only one thing left…contact your tutors!

Tips for finding the best private tutor

How do I choose a private tutor? Comparing tutor profiles can be difficult, especially for people who are indecisive. That's why our advice for you to get through this phase is, first of all, to look at the tutor's advert: 

  1. Know your needs to narrow down your search.
  2. Look at the tutors with recommendations
  3. Read all the student reviews
  4. Take advantage of the tutor's first free lesson to find out how they work and how they can help you.

Where can I find private tuition?

In the UK, you can find private teachers all over the country. However, bigger cities tend to have more private tutors to choose from. Here are some of the cities with the most tutors on our website:

  • Private lessons in London
  • Private lessons in Birmingham
  • Private lessons in Manchester
  • Private lessons in Liverpool

Although the cities with the most tutors are all based in England, private classes in Edinburgh, Cardiff and Glasgow are close behind. If you live in a small town and find there are not enough private tutors near you, try looking for online tutoring. Online tuition allows you to choose from tutors all over the UK so you can get the very best lessons no matter where you live.

Which subjects can I find private tutors for?

FindTutors is one of the largest platforms in the country for finding tutors. We have more than 350 subjects and we continue to grow every day. Here is a list of the most popular subjects grouped by category:

  • Language lessons: English tutors, French tutors and Spanish tutors are in high demand. There are also many other languages to choose from on our website. 
  • Science classes: Most sciences are school subjects, so chemistry, maths and physics tutors are extremely popular.
  • Music lessons: Thousands of students prefer to take private lessons to learn an instrument rather than lessons at a music school. In the end, personalised teaching has a lot to offer so if you are looking for piano lessons, guitar lessons, or singing lessons private tuition can be extremely beneficial.
  • After-school tuition: After-school tutors have been and will always be one of the pillars of private tuition. Many children need extracurricular classes to help them revise, do homework or learn new things. In fact, after-school tuition is not just limited to children, there are also tutors for university students.
  • Sports classes: Looking for a personal trainer near you? On our platform you will find plenty of them. In fact, personal trainers and yoga classes are among the most sought-after subjects on the platform.

We also have private tutors to help you pass specific exams or subjects associated with hobbies such as cooking. 

What is the price of private lessons?

The price of private tutoring online and in-person varies depending on the location, the experience or studies of the tutor, the level of the classes and even the subjects. Although the approximate price is £15 in the UK, in this table we show you what different tutors can charge you: 

  • English tutors: £16/hr
