Thinqi is our online learning platform and home to a plethora of resources to support our tutors’ training, development and lesson planning.

We are a learning organisation, focused on delivering high-quality tutoring to all our tutees, and ensuring our tutors are well-trained, and have the resources to support them once they are tutoring, is essential to achieving this. 

Training is comprehensive and includes three live Zoom training sessions, tasks to ensure trainees can deliver engaging and impactful tuition, and 10-15 hours of online training content, on Thinqi, produced by our experienced trainers. To prepare them for the classroom, there are five Assessment Points (APs) which will include taking part in discussions in online sessions, lesson planning, delivery of a roleplay lesson and two Situational Judgement Tests.

When tutors have completed all training, including a Safeguarding module, they are then ready to take on their first tutoring assignment.

For all tutors, we use Thinqi to release Continuing Professional Development (CPD) content throughout the year. Our CPD programme is designed to boost the skills and confidence of our tutors and to support them holistically, with topics ranging from lesson planning to wellbeing. We use Thinqi to advertise all our live events that we are running and to share our regular Tutor Trust Tutorials.

The Thinqi Library is our central resource bank. It contains hundreds of high-quality resources that tutors can use within their tutoring sessions, our full catalogue of Tutor Trust Tutorials, key Tutor Trust documentation, such as the Tutor Handbook and safeguarding policies, and our fortnightly Tutor Newsletter.
