York in-person tuition.

We support local students from primary through to A-Level

Tutorfox is a small, independent tuition company based in York, at the University campus in Heslington. Our growing team of local tutors provides personalised tuition for students across the city. We understand the needs of York students and carefully match each student with a tutor suited to their learning goals and subject requirements. Our tutors are subject specialists with experience supporting students from primary school through to A-Level, focusing not only on academic progress but also on building confidence and fostering a love of learning.

Our tutors support students from many local schools across York, including Bootham, Fulford School, St Peter’s, The Mount, Huntington School, and Manor CE Academy, among others. This experience means our tutors are familiar with the curriculum expectations, allowing us to provide tuition that closely aligns with what students are learning in the classroom.

How our in-person tuition works

Getting started is simple. Once you complete our parent enquiry form, we’ll review your requirements and identify suitable local tutors in York who cover your area, match your required subject and level, and have appropriate experience with your exam board or curriculum.

We also take into account availability and learning needs before recommending a suitable tutor for your child.

We always recommend starting with an initial session and go from there. This gives the student and tutor a chance to get to know each other and ensures the right fit before arranging anything longer term. This is really important as we want your child to engage well with their tutor, and to get the most out of their sessions.

In most cases, your tutor will travel to your home for your in-person sessions. All of our tutors have an enhanced DBS and are thoroughly vetted.
