We match.
We work with our team to match the perfect tutor to your child’s needs.

The magic happens.
We schedule in the first lesson and send you all the details you’ll need by SMS and email.
In the first lesson, your tutor will do an assessment on your child to see how they are doing against the standards of the national curriculum, and build a learning plan to work towards moving forwards. They will send you a copy of the assessment outcomes by email and share some goals that they will be working towards with your child. Get in touch today!
We encourage weekly lessons for the best results – but ultimately the length, timing and frequency is up to you.
You are free to communicate openly and directly with your tutor about scheduling and timings. All payments will be through Spark Tutoring – details will be provided after the first lesson and only if you are happy to continue.
After every lesson you will receive feedback from your tutor by email, outlining what was covered and how your child responded in the lesson. Every 10 lessons your tutor will provide a detailed progress report, keeping you in the loop at all times!

Frequently Asked Questions:
When is a good time to start tutoring?
We have students of all ages working with our tutors; from early Primary school to A-levels. The best time to start working with a Spark Tutor is today – so book your first lesson in under 3 minutes here.
Does my child really need a tutor?
Our tutors have been selected for their ability to motivate and inspire the young people they work with. Your child will grow in confidence, do better at school and gain a life-long love of learning.
A Spark Tutor offers more than just help for those struggling at school – they are mentors that will help your child realise their potential.
Does your tutoring follow a set program? What is the lesson structure?
Your tutor will have full access to our resource centre – which is packed with thousands of worksheets, textbooks and learning programs. They will use these as they see the need arise in your child.
What ages do you support?
How do I get started?
Are your tutors qualified?
We do not require our tutors to be degree qualified to work with us, and in most cases are younger, University age tutors that excelled in school themselves. We actually find students respond best to this age group of tutors; they can build real authentic relationships and the school curriculum is fresh in the tutor’s mind, creating a mentor-mentee relationship rather than one of authority from a teacher.
How do I track my child’s progress?
Every ten lessons your tutor will also provide you with a detailed progress report, providing an insight into their development, where they are still struggling and what they are working towards over the next ten lessons. This progress report can also be shared with their classroom teacher or any other family members.
Do you offer any discounts?
How do we find the right tutor?
Obviously, the best test of any tutor is meeting them face to face, which is why your first lesson is covered by our 100% happiness guarantee – so if you don’t think the tutor we have selected for you is the right one for your child, there is no charge and we will work with you closely to find a tutor better suited to them.
Where does the tutoring take place?
How do I pay?
We’ll send you a notification shortly after each lesson with the scheduled charge and a receipt 24 hours later after the payment has been processed.
There are no contracts, prepayments or minimum commitments in partnering with us.
Do I have to have lessons every week?
However, this is not a requirement in partnering with us. If you need to miss a lesson every now and then, no problem – just let your tutor know at least 24 hours before a scheduled lesson and there will be no charge.
How long do the lessons go for?
When can I start?
We will keep you updated on any potential delays, and of course let you know by SMS and email once we have scheduled the first lesson.
How much does it cost?
Do you offer a free trial or lesson?
This allows you to meet your tutor completely risk-free, but it also means that your tutor gets rewarded for their hard work when they do a great job. It is win-win for all!
