Tutor Trust training journey

If you are successful at interview, you will be invited to attend our programme of training.

Our tutor training:

• Is delivered online in four blocks.
• Involves a blend of live sessions where virtual attendance is compulsory and independent work to complete in your own time.
• Is curated and delivered by our in-house team of qualified teachers and partners at The University of Manchester's Institute of Education (MIE).
• Takes around 10-15 hours to complete over a 3-4 week period.

If you've completed a teaching training qualification, we offer a fast-track training programme. This allows you to move through the training process more quickly, with tailored support from our team of qualified teachers. You can find out more by clicking here.

About tutor training

All our training covers safeguarding, high-quality tutoring and lesson planning to enable you to plan and deliver fantastic tuition. Training is led by qualified teacher trainers who will equip you with the skills you need to plan engaging tutoring sessions whilst thoroughly briefing you on the national curriculum and the difficulties pupils may have with the subject.

We give you subject-specific training in either Primary (Maths and Reading) or Secondary (Maths, English, or Science) so that you're confident with the relevant curriculum and tutoring techniques for your subject and age range of preference.

Attendance at the online training is compulsory before you can take on an assignment as a tutor with us. Please get in touch if you need any support along your training journey or if for some reason, you are unable to make any of the training dates as you will have to complete the training programme before starting any tuition with us. We are a registered charity and, as we cover all training costs at up to £200 per tutor, we want everyone who signs up for training to complete the course with us, and to go on to deliver fantastic tuition to transform lives.
