  • ‘What has been achieved over the past year has been nothing short of remarkable. It was not an easy task, and I know how much effort, patience, and energy each of you invested along the way. Together, you have done an extraordinary amount of work, and our family is deeply grateful for it.’

    ‘Beyond the academic progress, you have helped him develop discipline, consistency, and confidence in his own abilities. Most importantly, you showed him that learning can be interesting, rewarding, and not nearly as difficult as it may seem when approached with regular effort and the right guidance.’

  • "I was so pleased with every aspect of this process, from my very first time speaking with you, through to Eleanor’s final departure. I would highly recommend Simply Learning Tuition highly to anyone looking for extra help, whether part-time or full-time live-in like Eleanor. Thank you for everything!!"

  • What is our approach to home schooling?

    1. A thorough assessment of the student’s needs (including SEN) and their academic goals

    2. An understanding of the wider reasons for home schooling – for example, is your family travelling frequently and you are looking for continuity of education, or do you wish to follow a particular educational model, such as Montessori or Waldorf

    3. SLT will then introduce carefully matched home school tutors. It is really important that we introduce just the right match of tutor; one who has the following attributes:

    i) the commitment to your family

    ii) the ability to develop the student’s softer skills, such as resilience and creativity in addition to academic skills

    iii) full knowledge of any curricula and exam boards you may wish to follow

    iv) the ability to act as a natural mentor to the child to really help them engage with the subject matter and above all make home schooling fun!

    4. We then prepare a detailed ‘route to completion’ road map

    5. When home schooling has started, we have regular check-ins and termly reviews to ensure that all is working well

  • How quickly can a bespoke home school programme begin?

    For online tuition, or London-based in-person tuition, programmes can often begin within days. For full-time residential placements overseas - particularly where a child has complex needs or the family’s travel schedule is demanding - allow up to three months so we can select, vet and onboard the right tutor properly. At this level, “right fit” matters as much as credentials.

  • Do we offer short-term programmes as well as long-term support?

    Yes. Some families work with us for a single term or during a period of transition; others for several years. We design programmes to suit the timeframe you need — whether that is short-term stabilisation, exam preparation, or longer-term educational continuity.

  • What education systems can we provide tuition for?

    Tutors are proficient in a wide range of educational systems and curricula, including the British, American, IB, and other international programmes. We tailor our tutoring to align with your child's specific educational needs and goals.

  • How do we measure progress and report back?

    Progress is monitored continuously rather than retrospectively. Families receive regular written reports outlining academic development, engagement, confidence and any emerging concerns. For longer or more complex programmes, we also track trends over time, allowing us to refine the programme proactively rather than waiting for issues to arise.

  • What safeguarding and vetting do we carry out for tutors?

    Every tutor undergoes rigorous vetting before being introduced to a family. This includes enhanced background checks, detailed reference verification and in-depth interviews from senior team members. Our investigations are focused not only on academic ability, but also on judgement, emotional intelligence and professionalism. For residential and international placements, we apply an additional layer of scrutiny to ensure suitability for close-proximity working and travel.
