How to Build a Tutor Website The single easiest and most cost-effective thing you can do to promote your  tutoring business  is to get yourself a website set up. There are hundreds, probably thousands, of companies that can assist you in this effort, and you can pay pretty much anything from a few hundred pounds to several thousand, but it is preferable to do it all yourself - from the point of view of cost obviously, but also as you’re going to want to update it frequently to keep your audience engaged. Setting up a website  can be complicated, and the steps required are laid out in this article. If setting it all up yourself seems too daunting, skip to the ‘Easy Options’ section further down. Domain Names You will need a www.something.something address for people to type in when they’re looking for you. The .com variants are the most popular, and the geographical options come in second. The geographical domains like .co.uk are helpful in some respects ...

The school summer holidays are upon is - the kids are off school, and the teachers are sat with their feet up for the next 6 weeks! OK, so at least half of that is a lie but daily life is certainly different for teacher and student for the next month and a half. Whilst having a well-deserved break should be ‘Job 1’ for the mental health, wellbeing and basic happiness of a busy teacher, there are also massive opportunities to be found in the summer weeks. We all know that every day of teaching is precious, and we also know students will typically fall back a bit over the holidays – the lack of daily study having a detrimental effect on progress in education. This set of circumstances is made even crueller by the fact that many modern school systems will evaluate students on entry into the school or new school year, benchmark them against their peers and establish expectations for the coming year. Set from a lower base capability off the back of a long summer break, this can result...

As a busy  music tutor , I teach people of all ages and abilities. Some have time on their hands whilst others lead busy lives, some are more motivated than others to work hard at their studies, but one thing unites 98% of them: A profound dislike of study. Be it practicing a musical instrument, working through your math problems or reciting passages in foreign languages to drill them into your brain, very few people smile at the thought of homework. Odd when you think students and their parents are paying for tuition in a subject they subsequently have no desire to work on, but very understandable when you consider the way the typical  student  studies. Why study is important Very few of us possess a natural talent for an instrument, but the vast majority of us have the ability to work hard and enjoy the rewards. Playing a musical instrument, becoming proficient in sports or getting that academic scholarship – whatever skill you aspire to, you’re only getti...
