Tutors: English Literature and Language A level & GCSE, 11/13+ entrance
“Boosting a student’s self-confidence, championing their curiosity, and helping them communicate with clarity, enthusiasm, and flair is hugely rewarding. The interests and idiosyncrasies of each tutee form the basis of my teaching, which means no two jobs are the same.”
Will
Education: Psychology and Philosophy, St Edmund Hall, University of Oxford
Tutors: Psychology A level, Psychology IB, 11/13+ entrance, 7+/8+ entrance
“The development of the student-teacher rapport is the most important part of tutoring . Building the student’s working process and engagement with the content is a joyful experience, as you get to motivate and support someone to independently grow their intellect. All students work in different ways, and so being a sounding-board to help the student equip themselves to embark on their academic journey (and beyond) is what fills me with pride.”

Education: Business Studies, Brunel University
Tutors: Economics and Business Studies A level & GCSE

“It is such a privilege to support my students throughout their education as they develop their academic skills like critical thinking and analysis. From the student’s perspective, tutoring is more than just ‘extra work’. It is the opportunity to build a long-term relationship with a mentor who will guide you and help you get the best out of yourself. Whether that means achieving top grades or smoothing areas that you have struggled with for a while, or even going above and beyond the syllabus because it is a subject you are really interested in; even the very best schools in the country cannot replicate the benefits of personal tuition. “
Tristan
Education: Geography, University College London (UCL)
Tutors: English Literature and Geography GCSE, 11/13+ entrance
Qualified Teacher
“I afford the time to build a genuinely meaningful relationship with a student – and it is this aspect of private tuition that I most enjoy. Children in particular deserve to be guided, challenged and inspired by an ‘expert’ in their learning journeys across their subjects. On the journey to developing intrinsic motivation, children should want to please and impress others: their teachers, their parents, or their tutor. Being involved with Clarendon as a private tutor is a true privilege – I enjoy building meaningful relationships with students through which they can progress their understanding, realise their potential and eventually learn to love learning.”
Celine
Education: English Literature, Cambridge University and Drama, Birkbeck College
Tutors: English Literature and English Language A level, GCSE, 11/13+ entrance
“I think having a one-to-one relationship is truly special, for both the tutor and the student. There’s space for so much joy and playfulness in these kinds of smaller teaching sessions, and that leads to huge progress in learning. It means that a student can really be seen and nurtured, which is hugely rewarding as a tutor, to watch them flourish. I personally love making my teaching bespoke, which means building a little world of learning with each individual student.”
Felix
Education: BA in Psychology, University of Oxford
Tutors: Psychology A level, Oxbridge admissions, Drama GCSE & A level
“I love tutoring for a number of reasons: firstly, it is a chance to watch a student’s understanding and technique within a subject grow. It’s also great to help a student enjoy a subject that I feel passionate about and of course there’s the satisfaction that comes with grades improving over the course of lessons, which positively impacts their future options for university or schools.”
Nic
Education: MA in Educational Leadership, UCL. BSc in Business Management, LSE
Qualified Teacher
Tutors: 7+/8+ entrance, 11+/13+ entrance, Maths GCSE
“I am former deputy head of mathematics at a west London school and current pearson edexcel gcse examiner. I believe that tutoring has a wide array of benefits. Not only does it help with the emotional side of academia such as self-confidence, resilience and the ability to handle pressure but there are more tangible results that come from tutoring such as acing exams and getting into first choice schools.”
Holly
Education: English & Drama, Cambridge University
Tutors: English Literature, English Language and Drama A level, GCSE, 11/13+ entrance
“As much as my tutoring career has been about conveying and teaching information and skills, it feels far more poignantly to be about fostering confidence. I have found nothing to be as valuable in my experience of tutoring as allowing a student to grow in confidence and find their feet. Of course, lesson content is important and aiming for academic goals is something I take incredibly seriously, but the confidence and the learning habits remain long after the lessons stop.”
Orlando
Education: Mphil in Classics, University of Cambridge
Tutors: 7+/8+ entrance, 11+/13+ entrance, Latin & Greek, GCSE & A level
“Tutoring is rewarding because the job involves instilling confidence and discipline. I have always been heartened to see how pupils develop over the course of their tutorials, and to see certain aspects of the curriculum ‘click’ for the first time. I did not fully appreciate the joys of learning until I was in Year 7, and I hope to advocate these joys in pupils who may not yet see them. I also find teaching in small groups very rewarding, as the pace of learning can be flexible: you can spend more time on some areas and less time on others. “
