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
Hannah has been an outstanding tutor for our 10 year old daughter. Our daughter looked forward to every session, irrespective of the planned lesson, and has visibly progressed with her work. We are most thankful to Hannah!

Hannah's biography
After graduating from St Andrews with a degree in International Relations, Hannah spent a year in Hong Kong on a graduate programme, teaching English lessons in a primary school to children aged between 5-11. Upon her return to the U.K. in 2010, she joined the Teach First Leadership Development Programme, where she was placed in a school in West London. From summer 2017, Hannah will become a full time tutor.
During her 8 years as a full time teacher, on top of her teaching responsibilities, Hannah took on a range of leadership responsibilities including Year Group Leader as well as subject responsibilities for MFL and Computing. She has also mentored a range of participants placed in her school through the Teach First programme. She has previous experience of tutoring KS2 children in creative writing.
When working with children, both in and out of the classroom, Hannah is passionate about developing relationships with each individual child she works with, getting to the heart of what engages them and then using this to inspire, motivate and personalise their learning experience. She enjoys presenting learning in real life contexts while also ensuring progress and progression towards the stated learning goals. She has high expectations of every child she works with and has built up a wide range of skills, knowledge and expertise about how children learn to support her in this.
When not teaching, Hannah is a keen runner, an avid reader and an enthusiastic cook! She helps run Sunday school at a local church and, whenever possible, also enjoys the chance to visit art galleries, museums and the theatre.

School entrance experience
Hannah has worked with children aiming to attend the following schools:
Hannah qualified to teach Primary education in 2011, and holds a Post Graduate Certificate in Education (PGCE) from Cantebury Christchurch University College.
I think Hannah was very helpful. She built a good relationship with my son and really helped embed some key concepts. The proof will be in the pudding if it was enough when we get the results! My only frustration was she didn’t have as much availability as I would have liked.
