À propos de l'entreprise
Écrit par l'entreprise
Tutorperch is a UK directory of independent tutors, built around one simple idea: charge once for the introduction, then get out of the way. Browsing and messaging tutors is free. When a student or parent finds a tutor they want to work with, they pay a one-off finder's fee to unlock contact details. From that point on, lessons, scheduling, and payment are arranged directly between the tutor and the student. No commission, no per-lesson cut, no subscription, no markup. Most UK tutoring platforms take 15–35% of every lesson, indefinitely. We don't. The tutor-student relationship belongs to the people in it — once we've made the introduction, we have no claim on what happens next. Every published tutor passes an identity check before going live. Tutors can also submit a safeguarding check — DBS, PVG (Scotland), or AccessNI (Northern Ireland) — for manual admin review, earning a Background-Checked badge that refreshes every three years. Verification is done by a human reviewer, not an algorithm. We cover tutors across academic subjects (Primary, GCSE, A-Level, undergraduate), exam preparation (11+, university admissions tests), and specialist subjects. Tutors set their own rates, lesson terms, and availability. Tutorperch handles the introduction; everything after that is between the tutor and the student.

Fantastic teaching agency!
This looks like a wonderful new group for both teachers and students; they have been very efficient in engaging with me as a freelance teacher. I used to work for First Tutors which closed suddenly and I am very grateful that Tutorperch decided to start a new agency where they only charge the students a one off small fee to get in touch with tutors. They don't add a fee of 25% to each lesson like all the other agencies; in this way the costs for lessons are a lot more affordable. This agency deserves a lot of success.
Wonderful site!
Wonderful team who are responsive, helpful and have been brilliant supporting tutors. The price is excellent for students and parents to secure the contact details of prospective tutors. So grateful to them for taking the time to source and input our reviews lost when First Tutors abruptly disappeared. Well done!
A new platform, but one built on twenty years of trust and transparency for parents and tutors
An excellent place for parents to connect with professional, experienced tutors, teachers, and academics who take their work seriously and care about students and education. While Tutorperch itself is a new platform (2026), the co-founders have found a way to import thousands of verified, archived tutor reviews from the now defunct First Tutors site, an industry leader for the past two decades. This ensures that parents can still browse and choose tutors with established experience and great reputations, based on years' worth of authenticated reviews. And unlike the vast majority of tuition platforms, which take a sizeable commission for every lesson taught (costing families more in the long run), Tutorperch has the fair and transparent business model of taking a one-time introductory fee -- after that, parents and tutors take the reins. The co-founders, Robert and Fiona, have been proactive and welcoming; tech support is prompt and helpful. Thank you!
Brilliant
Brilliant first impressions of this new tutoring site. The communication is very quick and responsive, the site is intuitive to use and provides a much fairer presentation of available tutors than the site many of us have migrated from.
Polished, professional, promising
Polished, professional, and promising website for tutors looking to market their tuition.
A fairer platform for Tutors and Parents
Tutorperch is a directory that connects parents with experienced and vetted tutors, in a simple and straighforward way, for a reasonable one-off fee. It was launched a couple of weeks following the sudden closure of First Tutors, a key player in the tutoring sector. It is also a direct response to a market saturated with tutoring agencies that charge high commissions or finder’s fees.
We wish Tutorperch every success and we thank its founders, Robert and Fiona, for their remarkable work.
Thank you for putting tutors first and…
Thank you for putting tutors first and creating this website following the closure of First Tutors.
A serious site that treat well tutors and students.
Thank you so much for being so quick and professional in the process of replacing First Tutors that vanished and left so many tutors astray.
Brilliant substitute for First Tutors
So far, really good website for tutors and a brilliant substitute for the neglected First Tutors. Team behind the website are respondent and helpful. The one-off pay fee is fair.
Excellent web platform - easy to use for tutees and tutors alike
Five stars plus for the team behind this tutoring web platform. An excellent and fair alternative to First Tutors which without warning suddenly closed down after 20 years, leaving parents and teachers alike in the lurch. Tutorperch is a platform that is easy for tutors/teachers to advertise on and parents to find a suitable teacher for their child without paying huge commission that most tutoring websites now charge. A comfortable and secure perch for all.
Easy to use
Easy to use, accessible, and feels very modern and sleek. Really excited for a whole new platform.
No commission keeps prices reasonable
The zero-commission model is the best and most straightforward way for tutors to find students and earn a living and to minimise prices for students. In my brief time working with them, they have been responsive and transparent.
As a tutor
As a tutor, they are quick to respond, easy to list and with a fair pricing structure - would recommend!
A Fairer Platform for Tutors and Parents
I am a tutor who worked with First Tutors for many years, so the closure was honestly quite worrying at first.
Tutorperch has been one of the few platforms actively trying to support tutors during this transition. I especially appreciate that they do not take commission from tutors or parents for every lesson, which I think is a much fairer model for education.
Too many tutoring websites now take large percentages from both tutors and families, which can make lessons unnecessarily expensive while tutors still receive less.
Tutorperch is still growing, but the team has been responsive, transparent and supportive so far, and I appreciate the effort they are making to help tutors preserve their reviews and profiles fairly.
Great page for finding tutors
Great page for finding tutors of all subjects. Great customer service and overall experience. 5/5
Heartily recommended!
An excellently designed website – very calm, easy to navigate, and with an array of high-quality tutors.
Also, the website only charges parents a small one-off fee to hire a specific tutor, rather than taking a hefty commission on each lesson (most tutoring websites add a 25% fee to the price of the actual tutor) making the tutors on this website, in all likelihood, much better value for money.
Heartily recommended! I’m very glad this website has been set up, especially after the recent closure of the Firsttutors website, which I used for years previously.
Have helped during a really difficult time ...
My review is exactly the same as someone else as they state things perfectly to express how I feel. Thank you Laura!
I am one of the many tutors that were catastrophically let down by First Tutors ghosting us for nearly three weeks before they admitted they have ceased to exist. Thank God for the internet and a forum on Reddit about what would happen to us. I personally started tutoring with First Tutors in 2010, so that's A LOT of excellent reviews that I assumed have disappeared along with First Tutors.
And then I heard about Tutorperch, who have seized the opportunity to rescue both tutors and clients, set up a functional way of joining very easily and... big drum roll... TOLD US HOW TO GET OUR DATA BACK FROM FT!!!
So far, all I can say is that they have been incredibly responsive. May tutorperch and all who sail in her thrive and continue doing what we love-which is helping students to fulfil their dreams.
Let's spread the word so that parents and tutors alike can trust Tutor perch to provide the same service as First Tutors ( except in its final days !!) without comission or fees taken from tutors . That was the best part of FT and the only reason I didn't join any of the others !!
This is an excellent-looking platform…
This is an excellent-looking platform for parents and teachers to make connections for lessons.
Great website for tutors and those looking for tuition
A very user-friendly website, built with tutors and students in mind to help them connect.
