How Private Tutoring Helps Families Navigate Relocation Smoothly

Helping your child stay on track, settle in, and thrive in a new country with specialist private tutors.

We’ve experienced a growing number of US families choosing to relocate to Europe or the UK – often in search of a different pace of life, richer cultural experiences, or a new environment in which to raise their children.

Whether prompted by career changes, lifestyle goals, or a broader reevaluation of priorities, education is always front of mind. Parents want to ensure their children receive a high-quality education, whether that means continuing with their existing curriculum or designing a new approach tailored to their new setting.

At Tutors International, we’ve supported families through hundreds of international relocations. The most common challenges they face are:

  • Maintaining consistency in curriculum
  • Supporting reintegration into their home country’s school system
  • Helping children thrive academically and personally in a new culture

A consistent curriculum, wherever you are

One of the major benefits of private tutoring during relocation is the ability to continue with a chosen curriculum without interruption.

Whether your family is following an American, British, or international programme, our tutors ensure seamless delivery.

We’ve worked with families who:

  • Continued full-time homeschooling while living abroad using the US curriculum
  • Supplemented local schooling with part-time tutoring in core subjects
  • Maintained alignment with grade-level expectations back home to ensure re-entry to school was smooth

In one case, a family preparing to move from England to Florida faced significant visa delays. Our tutor began the US curriculum while they were still in the UK, and later accompanied them to the US, ensuring their daughter remained on track throughout the transition.

Supporting an exciting cultural experience

A private tutor doesn’t just preserve academic consistency, they can help children make the most of their new environment. Being immersed in a new culture is one of the greatest educational benefits of living abroad, and a tutor will help you and your child make the most of that.

Tutors International has supported families who incorporated language learning, local history, and site-based experiential learning into their weekly plans.

One family exploring Europe built their educational schedule around historical tours, environmental science projects, and creative writing inspired by local surroundings – all while preparing for their return to the British school system.

Stress-free school reintegration

For many families, relocation is temporary. Whether a move abroad lasts six months or several years, reintegrating into home-country education is often a concern. Our tutors are trained to keep pace with academic benchmarks and peer progress, ensuring students don’t return to school at a disadvantage.

We’ve helped children:

  • Prepare for re-entry assessments and entrance exams
  • Maintain their home-country curriculum while living abroad
  • Blend international and local education styles to stay ahead

Because our support is tailored, tutors can adapt pace and content as needed – so children feel confident in both academic ability and social readiness when the time comes to return.

We can work with your relocation or concierge company

Tutors International often works in partnership with relocation consultants, concierge firms and family offices to provide a seamless education plan as part of the move. Our recent partnership with Quintessentially reflects this commitment to full-service, high-touch support.

As Adam Caller, CEO and Founder of Tutors International, explains:

“Education is one of the most important components of any family relocation. We work alongside relocation professionals to ensure our families have expert support, both logistically and academically. It’s about making the transition smoother, more confident, and ultimately more enriching for the whole family.”

Designed around your child

Every Tutors International placement is bespoke. That means:

  • A curriculum tailored to the family’s long-term goals
  • A tutor selected specifically for the child’s academic needs and personality
  • An educational experience that adapts to travel schedules, cultural opportunities, and family routines

We take a strength-based approach, designing lessons that engage each student’s interests while building academic skills. We’ve seen this approach help children grow in confidence, motivation, and independence, particularly during times of change.

Relocation doesn’t mean compromise

With the right support, moving abroad can enhance rather than interrupt a child’s education. Tutors International offers discreet, professional tutoring designed to move with your family – wherever that may be.

We’ll help you create an education plan that works for your family, wherever you are, just like we did for this client who relocated from the US to China...

"We engaged Tutors International to help us when we were living in Beijing, China, and the work was so good that we kept using the service even after we returned to DC. Tutor's International's integrity and commitment in helping children with their education is at the top of the scale, and if you can afford it, his services and that of his company are as good as you can get. If anyone is wondering whether to engage them and to ask questions about Tutor's International I'd be happy to answer questions about our experience."

... and this client whose family moved from the US to Switzerland:

"As you know our tutor is now back in California. She did an absolutely outstanding job and I would like to thank you again for having arranged for her to come and work with [the children]. A great success for both of them."
