Yesterday we officially launched our private tuition jobs board: Tutors Wanted.

Any student, parent, school or other organisation can post a request for tuition, and conversely, any tutor or teacher can reply to requests.

The service is free for both the enquirer and respondent (tutors not registered with us can answer requests by creating a free Basic Account), and everyone can keep up-to-date with the latest job opportunities by following The Tutor Pages on Twitter.

Even we’ve been surprised by the popularity of Tutors Wanted in its first week: it’s supposed to be the holiday season!

Just check out the new tutor jobs feature for yourself here:

As well as featuring in the Times Ed Masterclass Series last month, it has now been made available by Careers Services such as those at Cambridge University and London University. The no.1 university careers portal Prospects.ac.uk has linked to the Guide as one of its recommended resources.

The Royal College of Music Graduate Services division has also been spreading the word, thus demonstrating that it is also a great resource for those interested in becoming musical instrument teachers.

The Guide contains relevant information and advice for new and established tutors alike. And what’s more, it’s free to download.

As an independent review by teachers at Schoolzone remarked:

Tutoring: The Complete Guide tells you all you need to know about how to set up and manage the business of tutoring, including managing tax, contracting clients, effective teaching and so on. If you are a tutor, or are thinking of becoming one, you should certainly read this!
