About Us
Our Story
Clarendon Tutors was established in 2015 by co-founders Henry Serocold and Orlando Simon, who shared a common vision and a wealth of experience in the education sector. Henry worked at Eaton House the Manor and John Keble Church of England School, whilst Orlando had over 10,000 hours worth of tutoring experience.
Our founders wanted to set up an agency that prioritised the needs of the student above all else, asking themselves how our tutors could ensure academic excellence and foster the sorts of skills that would set up our students for life.
Since 2015, Clarendon has gone from strength to strength. We now have an amazing roster of over 400 rigorously vetted, highly trained, passionate educators. In 2018 we built our own training platform, so that we could make sure all of our fantastic tutors were better equipped to improve their students than at any other London tutoring agency.
In 2019 we launched Clarendon Inspires, allowing our brilliant educators to take children on accompanied educational experiences in London.
In 2022 and 2023 we were honoured by the National Tutoring Awards, shortlisted for best business, best customer service and the people’s choice awards. And in 2023 we launched Right School Choice, online assessments for children in years 4, 5 and 6, that then links parents to a school search of over 270 independent senior schools in the UK.
Testimonials
The ensemble at Clarendon is impressive - we had great tutors for our two boys, who were well matched by Orlando following a consultation where he brings a lot of experience to the table. Importantly the boys enjoyed their sessions, didn't complain as with other agencies we've tried and the service is courteous and professional.
Our son Milo was having a very tough time meeting his prep school's levels and his self-confidence was suffering. Vicious circle. We tried several tutoring agencies/crammers but they didn't make a huge difference. Then some friends told us that their son had done really well with Clarendon Tutors and we tried them for six months before his CE. He sailed into our school of choice and, just as importantly, has regained confidence in himself. He even admitted he quite enjoyed his sessions with his tutor, which is pretty unusual for a 13- year old! Thanks very much, Clarendon!
Very professional and friendly tutors with an outstanding ability to make children excel at their subjects.
