Why is this course better than one-to-one tuition?

It’s quite difficult to find the right tutors for your kids. Parents often have to decide between cheaper, but less experienced tutors or highly qualified ones that ask for thousands per subject. Here at MyEdSpace we do things differently:

  • Affordability: Our courses cost just £2-7 per hour, much less than the £60 per hour or more charged by private tutors, making quality education affordable for everyone.

  • Homework Marking: Unlike private tutors who may not always have the time to mark homework promptly, our system makes sure that homework is marked quickly and correctly, providing immediate feedback to students.

  • Personal Support: Our 1-1 mentoring offers consistent support via message from relatable mentors with A/A* at A Level in their subject, a feature that is not always available with private tutors.

  • Don't just take our word for it: We have thousands of 5 star reviews on Trustpilot from happy families to verify this for you.
