Why Travel with a Private Tutor?
Learning beyond borders
Travel offers endless opportunities for learning, and our tutors know how to make the most of every moment. From
exploring ancient ruins in Rome to studying marine biology while snorkelling in the Great Barrier Reef, our
tutors integrate real-world experiences with academic excellence, creating a rich and immersive learning
environment.
Customised learning adventures
Each child is unique, and so is our approach. Our tutors design custom curriculums that align with your travel
itinerary and your child's interests, while ensuring they keep up with what their peers at school are doing.
This personalised attention ensures that learning is both fun and effective, fostering a love for knowledge that
goes beyond textbooks.
Seamless integration with your travel plans
Forget about rigid school schedules! Our tutors offer flexible learning plans that adapt to your travel
schedule, ensuring that your child’s education continues uninterrupted. Whether you’re exploring new cities or
relaxing on the beach, learning is always in session.
Benefits of Travelling with a Tutor

- Enhanced cultural awareness: Our tutors incorporate local culture into their lessons, helping your child develop a deep appreciation and understanding of diverse cultures and traditions.
- Personal growth and confidence: Travelling and learning on the go fosters resilience, adaptability, and confidence in children, equipping them with skills that last a lifetime.

Testimonials
Families around the world have experienced the transformative impact of travelling with a Tutors International tutor.
We are thrilled with [the Tutors]. They arrived at the boat fully packed and prepped, with three different year levels organized. Amazing the diversity of stuff they brought - ready to cover all bases. They are very bright and great with the girls and good company for us.
Travelling Yacht Tutors
It was an incredible experience we had and I'm still getting used to the fact of being back in our old routine. My kids learned a lot travelling with the tutor. Their school work improved also. I'm sure the effects will continue to show as time passes.
Europe, Travelling Tuition
Adam's help was invaluable in finding a teacher for our boys. We really appreciated the care he took in getting to know us and our particular requirements before beginning his rigorous interview procedure. Adam was always there for our queries or requests and would not rest until we were fully satisfied with our choice of teacher. On three different occasions he has found us enterprising and highly qualified teachers. I would recommend Tutors International to anyone looking for a pritwittvate tutor.
