Testimonials from Students
Read below what students have been saying about us recently:
“The teachers on First Tutor are always at high level.”
“I love this site as it has provided me with a lot of work and students over the years. I hope I can get more :)”
“Joel is an excellent Tutor and I can not recommend him highly enough. My daughter is feeling significantly more confident in the topics she was unsure of and she enjoys Joel's teaching style and approach. I would highly recommend Joel”
“Easy platform to use and excellent at connecting with interested and committed students.”
“Log in has always been difficult, but not impossible. There seems to be no way for the site to "remember me"
I have noticed that customers are struggling with both not giving contact details away (obviously blocked by your systems) and exactly how the process works.”
“I have found First Tutors to be excellent. Easy to use website and I have found excellent tutors through your site. Thanks”
“Have used First Tutors for four different subjects so far and every tutor has been first rate. I particularly like the fact I can see detailed feedback from other parents but also it allows me to see the breadth of other tuition the tutor is giving, which is invaluable when considering a specific subject, but also if you require help in more than one subject, it is great to get a full picture of what capabilities the tutor has in other areas. One feature I particularly like is that you can discuss requirements without having to pay the fee, and although it works out more expensive than an annual subscription in some ways, I know that I only need to make payment once I am 100% certain that tutor has the skills and availability and will work well with my child, so the repeat fee is money well spent, rather than pay an annual fee which potentially is money lost if no suitable tutors arise. Equally, I don't want to pay extra fees on top, on an ongoing basis, I just want to pay the tutor for the lesson, so the fee structure works well for us, in terms of just one up front payment to First Tutors and then no-one is paying additional fees / the tutor gets all the fees after that, that seems fair to me. I have worked with other tutor companies where the fee structure does not really work well for anyone, and also you are forced to use their learning platforms (which do not always work). Also, I have worked with other companies whereby we had a great tutor, but because that tutor was working off the books with one family, the tutoring company stopped all tuition with her, which meant we lost out and could never contact her again. I just think the way that First Tutors deals with all parties is very good, and it is realistic in terms of how parents want to interact with any tutoring platform going forward, and gives the tutors their autonomy to work in the way they want to, and that's better for everyone. Hence, I use this website for all my tutoring requirements now, and I have three kids, so this will see us through the next couple of years now. It's great to be able to trust a website will do what I need it to do, particularly when trying to find a tutor that works well with your child, for the right price, with the right availability, using the right communication tools, is actually a total nightmare in the main (in my previous experience, before I started using this website).”
