How D1 Tutors Works

Start by sharing what subject you need help with, what level you're studying at, and when you'd like lessons. This helps us match you with tutors who have the right expertise and availability.

Whether you're looking for help with GCSE Maths, A-Level Biology, or university-level Economics, we have tutors who specialize in your specific subject and curriculum.

We'll show you a selection of tutors who match your requirements. Browse their detailed profiles, which include their qualifications, teaching experience, student reviews, and personal bios.

All our tutors are carefully vetted - only 1 in 8 applicants make it through our rigorous selection process. They're all from top UK universities and have proven track records of helping students succeed.

Book free 15-minute video meetings with as many tutors as you like. This gives you a chance to discuss your goals, ask questions, and see if they're the right fit for your learning style.

There's no obligation to book lessons after these meetings. We believe it's important that you find a tutor you connect with, as this relationship is key to your academic success.

Once you've found your perfect tutor, book and pay for lessons through our secure platform. All lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which includes video chat, a digital whiteboard, and screen sharing.

After each lesson, you'll receive a recording and any resources your tutor has shared, making it easy to review what you've learned and track your progress over time.

How much do lessons cost?

Lesson prices start from £25 per hour, with the exact rate set by each tutor based on their experience and qualifications. You can filter tutors by price range to find someone who fits your budget.

How long are the lessons?

Most tutors offer 55-minute or 85-minute lessons, but this is flexible. You can discuss your preferred lesson duration with your tutor during your free meeting.

What equipment do I need?

You'll need a computer or tablet with a webcam and microphone, plus a stable internet connection. Our online classroom works in your web browser, so there's no software to download.

Can I change my tutor if it's not working out?

Absolutely. If you feel your tutor isn't the right fit, you can easily book free meetings with other tutors to find a better match. There's no obligation to continue with any tutor.

How do I pay for lessons?

All payments are made securely through our platform using credit/debit cards or PayPal. You can purchase individual lessons or save with lesson packages.

What if I need to cancel a lesson?

You can reschedule or cancel a lesson up to 24 hours before it's due to start. If you cancel with less notice, the tutor may charge a late cancellation fee.
