Tutorium UK independent tutor recruitment

Teach your way. Reach learners looking for your subject.

Create a profile that explains how you teach, set your Tutor Fee and offer online or in-person lessons around your availability.

Founding tutors who pass review receive priority placement for 90 days after approval and publication. Lessons remain paid, and the placement benefit is not a promise of views, enquiries, bookings or earnings.

Tutorium privately verifies role-eligible DBS evidence before public listing and shows qualification-evidence status where applicable. No payout onboarding is needed during the pilot. Confirm bookings and arrange payment directly with adult customers.

What tutors can expect

Create a profile that explains how you teach, set your Tutor Fee and offer online or in-person lessons around your availability.

  • A profile preview and straightforward application.
  • Founding tutors who pass review receive priority placement for 90 days after approval and publication.
  • Lessons remain paid under the current Tutorium pricing and booking terms.
  • You set the Tutor Fee and lesson format; Tutorium adds no service fee during the pilot.
  • Tutorium verifies role-eligible DBS evidence privately before public listing and shows qualification-evidence status where applicable.
  • No payout onboarding is needed during the pilot. Confirm bookings and arrange payment directly with adult customers.
  • Approval or priority placement is not employment, guaranteed work or guaranteed earnings.

What a Tutorium tutor can publish

  • Subjects and learner levels you support.
  • A clear introduction, teaching approach and relevant experience.
  • Online or in-person lesson options, service area and published rate.
  • Recurring availability windows that learners can use as a starting point.
  • Useful learning resources and a focused lesson conversation.

What happens before a profile is public

Create an adult tutor account, accept the current Tutor Agreement, complete the profile and submit the required review evidence. Tutorium verifies role-eligible DBS evidence before public listing and shows qualification-evidence status where applicable. The public profile shows summaries and trust indicators; private documents are never published.

Approval is not employment, a guarantee of work, a safeguarding guarantee or a promise that every learner request will be suitable. Tutors teach independently and set the Tutor Fee for their service.

Make a profile useful to learners

  • Name the subjects and levels precisely rather than using a broad “all subjects” claim.
  • Explain the learner goal you are best placed to support.
  • State whether lessons are online, in person or both.
  • Add a realistic rate and availability window, then keep it current.
  • Use the profile preview before applying and remove private contact or document details.

For people referring a tutor

A referral is only an invitation. Use the privacy-safe referral message builder and let the tutor decide whether to apply independently.
