As part of our focus on ensuring every hour of high-quality tuition we deliver has the most impact on our tutees, we collect regular feedback from them and their school’s leadership teams. We want to learn about the experience for our partners, and the benefits they are experiencing.

And our fantastic tutees never fail to tell us what tutoring means to them – it’s always a joy to receive their expressive words.

24 January 2023 is National Compliment Day, and research has shown the benefits of compliments for both the recipient, in terms of improving mood and boosting performance (due to the release of the 'reward' neurotransmitter dopamine), and for the giver in terms of creating a better mood, and we’re encouraging our team to share a compliment.  And, in the meantime, we’re sharing some of our favourites from tutees!

Tuition is really fun and helps you to be confident."
