## How we work with tutors

We check qualifications and discuss teaching experience before tutors join the agency. For each enquiry, we look at what the student is studying and suggest someone with the relevant background.

## Room to ask a question

Individual lessons leave time to stop at the point you did not follow. A tutor can try another explanation and look at how you approach the work. We want the student to be able to use what they have learned outside the lesson.

## Working with AI

You can explore AI tools with a tutor, from asking a useful question to checking the answer. Working through the reasoning together helps you judge whether an explanation makes sense.

## Find a tutor

Tell us about your studies and we’ll suggest a tutor.
