In the focused environment of one-to-one tuition, our tutors adapt to your child’s learning style – adjusting pace, exploring curiosity, and building understanding step by step. This creates a powerful cycle: as concepts click into place, confidence grows, and as confidence grows, students become eager to tackle greater challenges.

Our Tutors

Connection is Everything

Learning flourishes when there’s real connection. When your rugby-obsessed son discovers that his Oxford maths tutor captained the Blues, suddenly equations become conversations.

Our tutors are more than subject experts — they’re doctors, barristers, engineers, athletes, and artists. But above all, they’re role models: calm, curious, and quietly brilliant people that students want to be around.

Selective by Design

We keep our network small and standards high. Fewer than five percent of applicants are selected — not just for what they know, but for who they are.

Private Tuition: Frequently Asked Questions

  • How effective is private tuition for improving academic performance?

    Private tuition is one of the most effective forms of learning. With one-to-one attention, tutors can quickly identify strengths, address gaps, and adapt lessons to the student’s learning style. Research shows that personalised tuition can significantly accelerate progress compared to classroom teaching.

  • How do you match a tutor with my child’s needs and personality?

    We begin with a consultation to understand your child’s academic profile, personality, and goals. From there, we carefully select a tutor who not only has the right subject expertise, but also complements your child’s learning style and interests.

  • Can private tuition help with motivation and confidence, not just grades?

    Yes. Many families turn to us not only for academic improvement but also for the broader skills that help students thrive. Alongside subject tuition, some students work with Lionheart specialists in executive functioning, building organisation, time management, and study routines that reduce stress and boost independence. Others benefit from our confidence coaches or speech coaches, who help students find their voice — whether in the classroom, an interview, or on stage. This holistic approach ensures progress is not only measurable in exam results, but also in self-belief and resilience.

  • Can private tutoring be delivered online as well as in-person?

    Yes. Lionheart offers both in-person tuition in London and across the UK, as well as online tuition for families worldwide. Many students find online lessons just as engaging and effective, with the added flexibility to fit around busy schedules.

  • How do you measure and track a student’s progress in tuition?

    We set clear goals at the outset, then track progress through regular feedback, assessments, and parent updates. Tutors adapt their teaching as the student grows in confidence, ensuring progress is steady and measurable.

  • Do you offer hourly private tuition or longer-term programmes?

    Both. Families can book hourly sessions, short-term intensive support, or longer programmes depending on the student’s needs — from weekly subject tuition to structured exam preparation.

  • Are Lionheart tutors available for home tutoring in London and the UK?

    Yes. Many of our tutors travel to students’ homes for lessons, offering the consistency and comfort of face-to-face support. For families outside London or overseas, we also provide trusted online and residential tutors.

  • How are Lionheart tutors recruited and selected?

    We accept fewer than 5% of applicants. Every tutor undergoes a rigorous vetting process, including interviews, academic testing, reference checks, and enhanced DBS certification. Only those who meet our high standards of subject mastery and character are invited to join Lionheart.

  • Do Lionheart tutors provide support beyond academics — such as study skills or exam technique?

    Absolutely. Alongside subject knowledge, we help students master essential skills like time management, organisation, note-taking, and revision strategies. For exam candidates, tutors focus on techniques for approaching unseen papers, managing stress, and performing under timed conditions — skills that carry forward into university and beyond.
