What is a Private Teacher?
A private teacher works with families looking to further their children's education, help them tackle challenging subjects, and prepare for exams. Compared to tutors, private teachers usually have a more flexible and dynamic schedule and often accompany students throughout their day rather than scheduling specific appointments.
Basic requirements include the knowledge, experience, and qualifications for teaching, but the approach often differs for every family. Some parents may wish for the teacher to host sessions in a classroom or office, while others may require a more flexible schedule, such as outside sessions or museum trips.
Private teachers are most commonly hired as an alternative to regular schooling but can also be requested as additional support or to teach a niche subject.
Services Provided
English Language & Literature
These are priority subjects for international clients looking to improve their English language skills and literature expertise. Private teachers can assist clients and their children with learning the language.
Classics
Classics include subjects such as Ancient Greek or Latin studies but can also refer to philosophy, classical literature, mythology, and other history-related subjects.
Foreign Languages
Aside from English, many of our clients prefer foreign language assistance, placing great importance on children being multilingual. French, German, Dutch, Spanish, and Arabic are common choices, but this area can include any other foreign language.
Mathematics
Highly necessary for school examinations and university entrance exams, mathematics is a universal subject many private teachers offer. Services can range from basic and intermediate levels for school examinations to advanced mathematics required for niche degrees and courses.
Exam & Revision Support
Clients often seek private teachers to provide examination and revision support for children and teens. The most common examinations include 11+, GCSE, and university entrance exams such as IELTS, but other types of assessments also apply.
Other Requirements
We'd still love to hear from you if you're a specialist in any other subject. From primary education to advanced scientific degrees, our clients look for premium educators with extensive knowledge of a wide range of subjects.
