Your ultimate guide to hiring a catch-up tutor for your child
I am an experience senior teacher with over 8 years experience at an outstanding independent school. Since August 2021 my full time role has been delivering online tutoring as The Prep School Online. We specialise in teaching children aged 4 to 16, whether they are aiming for the 11 plus, to get ahead of the national curriculum or in preparation for GSCE English and Maths.
The range of children that I get to support. Each has their own challenges and objectives, this ensures that no lesson is ever the same!
I wanted to reach a wider demographic of children and teach across the key stages of education. The time spent honing online schooling during Covid, showed how much scope there was to deliver learning and progress children, with the convenience of them being online.
I am a senior teacher, with am excellent track record of teaching across a range of subjects and year groups. Added to this a bring a wealth of life experience to this profession, which is ever present in my lessons.
I have honed my online tutoring to deliver the maximum amount of subject matter and progress within each lesson and use best educational software, to ensure that I am as connected to your child's work, as if I were stood next to them in the classroom.
I only teach remotely - thereby giving you the freedom to have your children learn from wherever you are.
Fortunately - being online somewhat helps with this!

I am so pleased to have found AK Positive Tutoring. He is very accommodating, very friendly and makes my son feel comfortable and welcome. My son was being bullied at school for being gay so I am currently homeschooling him. Antony had been so helpful and supportive throughout the whole process and has my son feels like he can be himself when learning. Thank you so much!
