Fit before availability
We would rather ask you to wait a few days for the right tutor than fill the slot tomorrow.
About
Tutivate exists because most tutoring is sold on availability rather than fit.
Families are usually handed whoever is free. We think the tutor should be chosen for the subject, the exam board, the target school or university and the way the student actually learns - and that a person should review that choice before a family ever meets a tutor.
So Tutivate works the other way round. We gather the detail first, shortlist tutors against it, and have a member of the team read and approve every recommendation. Then we arrange a free compatibility trial, because a match on paper still has to work in the room.

What we hold ourselves to
A person reviews every match
Nothing is sent automatically. Someone reads the recommendation and stands behind it.
Honest about outcomes
We do not guarantee grades or school places, and we say plainly when a target is unrealistic.
Say when support should end
When a student no longer needs a tutor, we tell you. Long engagements are not the goal.

A short consultation, an honest recommendation and a free trial before anything is paid for.
