Built for students

Your tutor, your way.

Any level, no exceptions

GCSEs, A-Levels, retakes, or learning for yourself. Find a tutor who teaches exactly where you are.

Every tutor, background checked

Every tutor passes a criminal record check before their profile is visible, wherever in the world they live. You only ever see verified tutors.

Direct contact, no middleman

Connect with your tutor and arrange lessons directly. The arrangement is between you and them, never routed through us.

How it works

Three steps to find your tutor

  1. Browse verified tutors

    Search by subject, level, and whether you want online or in-person lessons.

  2. Find your match

    Compare profiles, subjects, and prices. See who fits how you like to learn.

  3. Connect directly

    Connect with your tutor and arrange lessons with them directly.

If you are 16 or 17

Sixteen or seventeen? This account is yours

You sign up, not your parents

You create the account yourself and it belongs to you. When you join, we send your parent or carer a one-off email so they know you are learning here. Once they have acknowledged it, your account unlocks and you can browse and message tutors. There is no deadline on that email.

They do not run your account

Acknowledging is not approving. Your parent or carer cannot log in as you, cannot manage your account, and is not asked to vet the tutors you talk to. Because you are under 18, we do email them when a tutor conversation starts and when you connect with a tutor, so they are never in the dark about who you are learning with.

Under 16? You learn through a parent-managed account instead, set up and held by your parent or carer. See how that works for parents.

From the founder

Tutor Island is new, and words from real students will live here soon. Until then, here is my promise: every tutor is background checked before they appear, every message is screened, and when you connect you arrange lessons directly with your tutor, with no middleman. If we can do better, tell me directly at support@tutorisland.co.uk.
Sarah, founder of Tutor Island
