Become a tutor Application & Training FAQs Who can I use as a referee? We ask for one academic referee (a tutor, teacher, lecturer) and one personal referee (not including a family member, or a peer). If the person you have put down as a referee has not confirmed that they can provide this before you submit your application, don't worry. If you need to change your referee at a later date you can do so by emailing [email protected]. Manage Cookie Preferences
