Online tutoring programmes for every stage

Choose the right online tutoring programme

A Year 8 student rebuilding the basics needs a different plan from a Year 11 student eight weeks out from a mock, an A-Level learner stuck on advanced content, or an adult working towards Functional Skills Level 2.

Six programmes, one price, and a free trial before you commit to any of them. If you are not sure which fits, tell us what is going wrong and we will point you at the right one.

  • Live one-to-one, never group
  • KS3 to A-Level, plus adults
  • £30 per lesson
  • Free 30-minute trial

No card details and no commitment for the trial.

Find your programme

Which programme fits the learner right now?

Start from where the learner actually is, not from the programme name. Year group tells you most of it, but an approaching exam or a previous result changes the answer, which is why revision and resit sit separately from ongoing GCSE support.

If the learner isStart hereWhat the tutoring does
In Year 7, 8 or 9 and needs stronger foundations Online KS3 Tutoring Catches up on gaps, strengthens core knowledge and prepares for GCSE study
In Year 10 or 11 and needs ongoing subject support Online GCSE Tutoring Closes subject gaps and builds towards mocks and finals across the year
Sitting a GCSE with mocks or finals approaching GCSE Revision Tutoring Prioritises weak areas, drills exam questions and fixes timing and technique
Retaking a GCSE after a previous result GCSE Resit Tutoring Builds a plan around what the last result actually showed and the next sitting
In Year 12 or 13 and needs advanced subject support Online A-Level Tutoring Works on hard content, application and course assessments
An adult, apprentice or college learner needing Level 2 Maths or English Functional Skills Level 2 Prepares for the specific assessment and the next work or study step

Year 9 is the awkward one. Some schools start GCSE content in Year 9 and some do not. Send us the subjects and course information when you enquire and we will tell you whether KS3 or GCSE is the better starting point.

Programmes by learning stage

Four programmes built around where the learner is

KS3, GCSE, A-Level and Functional Skills Level 2. Each one is live one-to-one tutoring at £30 a lesson. What changes is where the lesson time goes and what the tutor is preparing the learner for.

Years 7 to 9

Online KS3 Tutoring

For students who need firmer foundations before GCSE pressure arrives. Lessons revisit gaps from earlier years, support current school topics, and help a student get more independent with homework.

Worth considering when a learner is falling behind, finding secondary school harder than expected, or heading into Year 9 with shaky knowledge in key areas.

  • Maths, English and Science foundations
  • Difficult school topics and homework
  • Confidence to answer and ask questions
  • Study habits and independent practice
  • Preparing for the step up into GCSE

Years 10 to 11

Online GCSE Tutoring

Ongoing subject support for learners who need clearer explanations and practice tied to their actual course. Lessons follow the year group, subject, exam board, tier and target rather than a generic syllabus order.

Suited to students who want consistent support across the school year, not just a short push before the exam.

  • Closing gaps in subject knowledge
  • Following the correct specification
  • Foundation or Higher tier support
  • Preparing for school assessments and mocks
  • Turning knowledge into exam marks

Years 12 to 13

Online A-Level Tutoring

The step up from GCSE catches most students out somewhere. One-to-one gives a learner time to question difficult ideas, work through demanding problems and get feedback on their approach rather than just their answer.

For students who need help with advanced content, workload, exam technique or a specific grade requirement.

  • Understanding complex topics
  • Moving from GCSE answers to A-Level depth
  • Problem solving, analysis, extended responses
  • Using assessment objectives and mark schemes
  • Revision planning around school deadlines

Available subjects depend on current tutor availability. Send the subject, exam board and course and we will confirm before anything is booked.

Adults & apprentices

Functional Skills Level 2

Practical Maths and English for learners who need the Level 2 qualification for work, an apprenticeship, a college place or further study. Tutoring starts from the current level and the specific assessment being taken.

Often the right route for adults returning to study after time away from education.

Check the exact entry requirement with your employer, apprenticeship provider, college or university first. Functional Skills is not accepted in place of a GCSE in every situation.

Focused GCSE support

GCSE tutoring, revision or resit: which one?

Ongoing GCSE tutoring runs across the year. Revision tutoring is for a learner with an exam approaching who needs prioritising and technique. Resit tutoring starts from a result that already happened. Same subject, three different plans.

This is the choice families get wrong most often, usually by booking general tutoring six weeks before a paper when they needed revision tutoring, or by booking revision tutoring for a retake when the previous result should be driving the plan.

ProgrammeRight whenStarts fromTypical shape
GCSE Tutoring The learner needs steady support across Year 10 or 11 Current topics, school feedback, weak areas Ongoing weekly lessons through the school year
GCSE Revision Tutoring A mock or final paper is close and time is limited Mock results and the topics costing the most marks A short, focused block aimed at a specific date
GCSE Resit Tutoring The learner is retaking after a previous result The last result, the grade needed, the next sitting A targeted plan that deliberately differs from last time
Mocks & finals

GCSE Revision Tutoring

Rather than revising every topic equally, the tutor uses school feedback, mock results and practice questions to work out where lesson time is actually worth spending. Can run as a short focused block or as part of a longer plan.

  • Deciding what to revise first
  • Correcting errors that keep repeating
  • Past papers and exam-style practice
  • Timing, answer structure and mark schemes
  • Making a big syllabus feel manageable

Retakes

GCSE Resit Tutoring

A resit plan should start with the previous result, the grade now needed, the subject, exam board, tier and next available sitting. That is what lets a tutor target the gaps and exam habits that cost the marks, instead of repeating the same preparation.

  • Reviewing the previous result or paper
  • Finding the topics and question types losing marks
  • Rebuilding confidence after a knock
  • Fitting study around college or work
  • Practising the correct specification and tier

We prepare learners for exams. We are not an exam centre and cannot enter anyone for an examination. Your school, college or a local centre handles entry.

Shared across all six

What does every programme include?

One tutor per learner, matched by a person rather than a filter, working on priorities set from real evidence. Live online, with practice and feedback in the lesson, and a free 30-minute trial before you pay for anything.

One-to-one attention

The lesson belongs to one learner. Time to ask questions, show working, and go back over anything that is not yet secure.

Tutor matching by a person

We look at stage, subject, course, goals, availability and support needs before suggesting anyone. One name, with the reason we picked them.

Priorities from evidence

Lessons follow what the learner is actually studying and where they are actually losing marks, not a generic plan reused for everyone.

Practice and feedback

Explanation, then guided practice, then an independent attempt. The learner finds out what is secure and what needs work while the tutor is still watching.

Flexible online delivery

Live lessons from home. No travel, and easier to keep consistent around school, work and everything else.

A free trial first

Thirty minutes to discuss the goal, meet the proposed tutor and agree a starting point. No card details taken.

Programme first, subject second

Which subject do you need?

The programme sets the stage and purpose of the support. The subject page then covers the curriculum and lesson focus in detail. Pick the programme first, then follow the subject link from there.

Still deciding

Not sure which programme to choose?

Send us the year group, the subject and what is going wrong, and we will tell you which programme fits. You do not need to work out the diagnosis before you get in touch. That is our job.

Useful to include

  • the year group or current stage
  • the subject or qualification
  • the exam board and tier, if you know them
  • a recent result, school comment or working level
  • the main topic, skill or worry
  • the next mock, assessment or resit date
  • days and times you can keep to

Bring a recent piece of work or a practice paper to the trial if you can. It makes the conversation far more specific than a general chat about a subject.

Tell us the stage, the subject and what is going wrong. We will come back with the programme that fits and set up the free trial.

Getting started

How do you get started?

Four steps. Tell us the stage and goal, we confirm which programme fits, you take a free 30-minute trial with the proposed tutor, then decide whether to carry on. Nothing is paid before the trial.

  1. Tell us the stage and goal

    The year group, subject, current concern and what the learner is working towards.

  2. We confirm the programme

    KS3, GCSE, A-Level, Functional Skills, revision or resit. Sometimes the answer is not the one families expect.

  3. Meet a tutor in the free trial

    Thirty minutes to discuss priorities, check the fit and agree what happens next. No card details.

  4. Start one-to-one lessons

    Ongoing lessons shaped around the learner's course, needs and progress, adjusted as things change.

Tutor fit matters more in one-to-one teaching than in any other format. If the first match turns out wrong, tell us and we will review the placement rather than asking you to make it work.

Pricing

What does each programme cost?

£30

per 60-minute lesson

The first 30-minute trial is free, with no card details taken and no obligation to continue. No sign-up fee and no package you have to buy upfront.

One price, six programmes

A KS3 lesson and an A-Level lesson cost the same. We do not price by level, because a Year 8 student who has lost confidence needs just as much of a tutor's attention as a Year 13 student working towards an offer.

Cancellation and rescheduling terms are stated before you pay anything, and we confirm the tutor, day, time and payment schedule before the first paid lesson.

Proof, not adjectives

Who would be teaching?

Real names, real photographs, verifiable qualifications and links to the original reviews. Judge the match yourself in the free trial rather than taking our word for it.

Common questions

Questions about our programmes

Anything not covered here, message us and we will answer. We usually reply within minutes.

Which programme is right for a Year 9 student?

It depends on what the school is teaching. Many Year 9 students still need KS3 foundation support, while some schools start GCSE courses in Year 9. Send us the subjects, current topics and course information and we will tell you which is the better starting point.

What is the difference between GCSE tutoring and GCSE revision tutoring?

GCSE tutoring is ongoing subject support across Year 10 and 11. Revision tutoring is focused on an approaching mock or final paper, using weak-topic prioritising, exam questions, timing and a revision plan. A learner can move from one into the other as the exam gets closer.

What is the difference between revision and resit tutoring?

Revision tutoring supports a learner preparing for their current course. Resit tutoring is for someone retaking after a previous result, and that result, the grade they now need and the next sitting should all shape the plan.

Do you support adult learners?

Yes. Functional Skills Level 2 and GCSE resit support both suit adults, apprentices and college learners. Which one is right depends on the qualification your employer, training provider, college or university actually requires.

What if I do not know the exam board or tier?

Ask the school, college or exam centre if you can. You can still book the free trial without it, but the correct specification and tier need confirming before a detailed plan is agreed.

How much do the programmes cost?

£30 per lesson across all six, with a free 30-minute trial. Confirm it applies to your level and subject when you book, and see the pricing page for current terms.

Are lessons one-to-one or group sessions?

All six programmes on this page are live one-to-one online tutoring. That is the whole service, and it is why a student can stop a lesson to ask something they would never ask in front of a class.

Can a learner move between programmes?

Yes, and it is common. A Year 11 student on ongoing GCSE tutoring often shifts into a revision-focused phase as mocks approach. Tell us when the goal changes and we will change the plan.

Start with a free trial

Start with the learner, not the programme name

Tell us the year group, subject, what is going wrong and what they are working towards. We will pick the programme that fits and set up a free 30-minute trial with a relevant tutor.

No card details, no commitment, and no grade promises we cannot keep. Enquiries answered 24 hours a day, and we usually reply within minutes.
