We’re more than just tutors.
We’re a comprehensive educational charity powered by students, enhanced by technology, and embedded in communities to close the education gap.
Student-Led
We started as two students with a YouTube channel, and we’ve never forgotten what it’s like to struggle with the academic pressures of school exams and UCAS applications.
Fair wages: We fairly pay our student tutors for their time and expertise
Non-profit: Our trustees and volunteers give their time to help our goals
Community-First
Instead of competing, we work with what’s already there by strengthening libraries schools, and community centres that families already trust.
Smart partnerships: We make existing services better, instead of competing
Local roots: Every area is different, so we adapt to what each community needs
Future-Ready
We actively research technological advancements in education (instead of just using it) working out how AI can help education without losing the human touch.
Built from scratch: Our platforms are bespoke to work seamlessly
Future-ready: Widening access without cutting corners or weakening standards
Beyond Tutoring
From creative projects to digital support for other charities, we’re building a network that supports young people from primary school through university and beyond.
Helping others: Helping other education orgs with websites and know-how.
Looking ahead: Scaling what works to reach more young people nationwide
Transparent, Sustainable Education
Our pay-what-you-can model creates a transparent system that supports both learners and educators.
How it works: Families contribute what they can afford for our online sessions — even if that’s nothing — while our Community Education Network sessions in libraries are always entirely free.
Why we pay our tutors
We pay our tutors £13.68 per hour – aligned with the UK median earnings in 2020 (£13.68) and exceeding the voluntary Real Living Wage (£12.60 nationally, £13.85 in London). This fair rate attracts dedicated student tutors, recognises their essential labour, and ensures consistent, high-quality support for learners.
Every contribution supports free sessions for those who cannot pay, tutor wages, and new educational resources. It’s education funding that works for everyone.
