One in three UK secondary students depends on a tutor*—but who can those tutors depend on?

A super supportive community for new tutors and established educators.

Andrea Gadsbey

After almost twenty years in traditional secondary education, I took the leap two years ago into private tutoring. It has been amazing in many ways but until recently I lacked a sense of community, support and shared vision.

Joining Qualified Tutor has been brilliant in that regard. Julia, Odette and the community are so supportive, kind and inspiring and the range of sessions they run are practical, valuable and enjoyable!

A recent ‘Supervision Circle’ session I attended was more useful than any other CPD I’ve had in twenty years of teaching – I highly recommend QT!

Being a tutor can sometimes feel isolating, but this Qualified Tutors community has completely changed that for me. What I love most is the incredible culture of knowledge sharing—everyone is eager to help, exchange ideas, and provide insights that make us all better at what we do. Beyond that, there’s a strong sense of hand-holding and support. Whether you’re struggling with a tough student situation, looking for new strategies, or just need encouragement, there’s always someone ready to lift you up. It’s a space where you feel truly not alone in this journey, which makes all the difference with Julia and Odette making us strive for better! If you’re a tutor looking for a place to grow, learn, and connect with like-minded educators, I highly recommend joining this community!

Boundaries, Timekeeping and a Bit of Gaming Time

Boundaries, Timekeeping and a Bit of Gaming Time

One of the most important rules in my tutoring practice is the ‘no stress’ rule. It’s non-negotiable—and all the more important in potentially high-pressure situations (we’ve all been there). One such session came up this week. It had all the ingredients for a perfect...
