That’s why we offer tailored, full-time private tutoring services designed to provide continuous, high-quality education, no matter where life takes you.

Testimonials

We’ve helped many families successfully navigate relocation.

With the tutor’s help we looked at schools and chose the ones we thought were most suited to the girls’ needs. They sat the entrance exams, passed all very well and L has been allocated to the top sets in all her topics. Having a tutor was completely new to us and it has been a fantastic experience. The girls have just grown in their confidence and their abilities. They have experienced so much in this time that I worry that school may be a bit boring for them!

We engaged Tutor's 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.

I would like to say how pleased we were with our tutor and the whole arrangement. It was a great year for both [the Student] and us and he is now happily established at school.

Our new beginning is so far going really well. Kids are happy and tutors seem to be settling in really well. They're working well as a team and kids are really enjoying learning with them, which is brilliant. It's been a great start! We are so grateful to Tutors International for creating this opportunity for us!

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.
