Live in Tutors

SLT’s approach to Live In Tutors

Based in Kensington, London, SLT has placed live in tutors in more than 40 countries around the world. We also introduce professional home tutors to work with families in London and to live with families all over the UK. If you are looking for a tutor to work with you online, please read more about our online tutors for international families.

Families come to us for a variety of reasons. We have placed tutors to work with students who have suffered anxiety at school because of bullying or other challenges. We also support sports or acting stars and expat families who have moved to a new country, or families who travel extensively and want to provide their children with a continuity of education.

A live in tutor can provide a range of benefits for parents considering home schooling their child:

1. As a professional home school tutor, who lives with your family, they will be able to support your son or daughter in many different ways – from helping them study for national exams such as GCSEs, A-Levels or IB, to providing them with full-time home schooling.
2. The live in tutor will not only match your child’s educational needs and personality, but will also blend in seamlessly with your family’s lifestyle.
3. As well as having the appropriate teaching credentials and exam board knowledge, tutors are natural role models.
4. For children with SEN, such as dyslexia, dyscalculia, dyspraxia or Asperger’s, a live in tutor can provide qualified, sustained support to help them access the curriculum and in time, return to mainstream education.
5. Private tuition at home allows for lessons to be delivered at a pace that your child is comfortable with and in many cases; their impact can be transformative.
6. Live in tutors can stay with or close to your family and support your child’s learning wherever you are and whatever the subject and academic level, from early years, through primary and secondary to A-Level and beyond.
7. Tutors can provide full-time home schooling, or top up tuition to support regular schooling.
8. Using a professional home tutor, who is up to date with your child’s curriculum and exam board will enhance their results dramatically. The tutor will createa structured learning program that is focused on your child’s academic progression and adapted to their environment, often using local history and culture to make the learning experience even more enjoyable.

All of the tutors listed below are available to provide live-in services, either in the UK, or abroad. Often their placements will be to support a student’s home schooling or, they may be helping a student to prepare for a specific entrance exam such as the 11 Plus, or 13 Plus, or the Ukiset. Live-in English tutors can help children who are coming to the UK to improve their written and spoken English.

If your family needs a particular skill set or type of person to work with their child, we can find that person. It might be that, for example they want a sports or acting coach, who can also get them through their A-levels. You might want someone with particular language skills, or interests or hobbies.
