A placement fee of £95 is payable for each tutor that is introduced to you - this will only be charged if a tuition session takes place and will be added to your first invoice.
There are no registration fees. This means that you can meet a tutor without having to pay anything. You will only be invoiced if you engage one of our tutors to deliver tuition after having discussed your requirements with them.
Why do our tutors cost what they do?
They are all experienced qualified teachers.
Many of our school entrance tutors have significant experience and track records in preparing students for competitive school entrance exams

They have achieved academic excellence themselves
Many of our tutors have achieved other relevant skills such as qualifications to assist students with special educational needs
How can I save money when using an Owl Tutor
Consider online tuition if you have not already done so. Most students at KS2 or above will have no problem engaging just as efficiently with an online tutor than a face to face one. Face to face tuition can be up to 50% more expensive for the same tutor!
Consider shorter sessions. Most tuition sessions are one hour. 40 minute sessions can often be effective and could reduce your fees by 33%.
Find out if there are times that you can offer to your tutor that are more convenient for them. Most tutors find it difficult to fill their hours during the day (9am to 3pm) in the week. Many of them will accept lower rates at these times.
How do our fees work?
Our tutors set the rates that they wish to be paid on each job. The rate that they will request will be dependent on a number of factors including:
The rate they wish to earn per hour
Whether the job is face to face or online
How much preparation time is required for each session
The tutor's remaining availability
none
Sallie's biography
Sallie is an experienced international mathematics teacher whose passion in education is working with students to build understanding. She forges links between the material they already understand and what they still need to develop, working with the student as an individual with their own levels of understanding. She wants her students not only to know how to answer the question, but also to understand why they follow the steps that they do and how this leads them to a sensible answer.
Sallie studied for her undergraduate degree in Mathematics at the University of Edinburgh, and qualified as a maths teacher at the University of York a year later. From here she moved to London, where she worked at an inner city school, teaching students from across the range in year 7 through to Further Maths A-level. At this time, she also began working as an examiner for the A-Level exam boards, and continues to mark for them as an Expert Examiner with highly accurate grading. She also works as an examiner for the IB.
After working in London, Sallie decided to venture out into the wider world (and better weather!) and took an international school placement in El Salvador. Here she worked for three years, teaching iGCSE (Cambridge) and IB mathematics and working as Head of Mathematics before moving to Colombia where she also taught the International Baccalaureate MYP and DP. In 2023, Sallie returned to the UK where she continues working with both UK and international students and exam boards.
Her passion for teaching mathematics with an emphasis on student centred learning led to her running continuous professional development within schools alongside always achieving excellent results with both her classes and tutoring students.
IB Experience
Sallie has taught and led a department in IB Diploma Mathematics. Her Higher Level mathematics classes always achieve exceptional results, completing strong Internal Assessments and doing well in the final examinations. Sallie has completed official training for the IB with a particular focus on the IA as well as the curriculum itself. She is experienced in AAHL and SL, and AI SL. She has also taught the IBMYP and recognises the unique challenges that this syllabus brings.
In addition to teaching the IB, Sallie works as an official examiner for the IB, grading IAs. She has lots of ideas for IAs, loves helping students find an IA topic they are excited about and knows exactly what the examiner is looking for!
