In-Person Tuition at Owl Tutors
Where do you offer home tuition?
The vast majority of our face-to-face tuition takes place in and around London. However, as we continue to grow, we now have tutors based across the UK who are able to provide home tuition. Please contact us to check tutor availability in your area or use our tutor search function.Where does tuition take place?
Typically, tuition takes place at the student’s home. Where parents are happy to travel, a number of our tutors are able to provide tuition from their own homes. In such cases, we expect our tutors to create a quiet and calm work space for sessions. Tuition will usually take place at a desk in a home office or at a dining room table. Where you have agreed to find a half-way meeting point with your tutor, lessons can take place at a local library, museum or gallery or quiet coffee shop. This should be arranged directly with your tutor.The benefits of home tuition
With recent changes, we have all become very used to working remotely and online. We appreciate that online tuition isn’t for everyone, and face-to-face sessions can be particularly effective for young learners and help to build rapport between tutor and tutee.Mixing home and online tuition
Many of our tutors are happy to arrange an initial face-to-face session to “get to know” their new student in person. Where travel requirements make in-person tuition difficult to do on a weekly basis, tuition can then move online, perhaps with the occasional in-person session during the school holidays.We had a fantastic experience with Lisa and would highly recommend her! She was warm, playful, and engaging, making learning feel natural and enjoyable. She kept sessions perfectly suited to our child’s age and attention span, ensuring they stayed engaged while building key early skills. What we especially appreciated was her clear communication with us as parents. After each session, she provided a thoughtful overview of what had been covered, highlighted areas for further development, and shared useful resources to support learning at home. Her structured yet flexible approach made a real difference, and we felt genuinely supported throughout the process. We’re so grateful for her help and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her!
Alison is an outstanding tutor who combines expert subject knowledge, clear planning and a warm, fun, engaging style of teaching. Alison used her skills as a coach to support our child through preparation for senior school exams, providing clear feedback and targets. This was immensely helpful during a busy period that could otherwise have been more stressful.
