Home education shaped us.
Here’s why we created Swan Tutoring...

Hi, we’re Josh & Aimee Swan, husband and wife!

 

We were both home educated ourselves, and we started this project because we know first-hand how powerful home education can be when it balances freedom with meaningful learning...

Our Fresh Take on Online Learning

Engaging & Interactive Lessons

Watching a screen while someone talks at you isn't exactly exciting. That's why we make learning fun and interactive! With slides, videos, pictures, quizzes, worksheets, and more, we ensure every lesson keeps your child engaged and eager to learn. 

Weekly Lessons

These days, it's all about short-form content, and we all know how hard it is to stay focused for long stretches! That's why our weekly classes are just long enough to cover what matters, but short enough to keep it fun and stress-free for your child. For any KS3 lesson and below, lessons are 30 minutes long, priced at £8 per lesson (with a 10% sibling discount if you sign up more than one child). For our GCSE classes, its £12 per 45 minute lesson. And our new adult classes are £15 per 45 minute lesson

SEN Friendly

Almost all of our tutors are experienced in supporting students with Special Educational Needs (SEN). They tailor their teaching methods to each student's needs, using clear communication and personalised approaches to create a supportive and understanding learning environment. Additionally, there is never any pressure for students to have their video feed or microphone on, and participation is always voluntary! 

Communication Made Easy

We create WhatsApp group chats for each class, allowing parents to easily ask tutors questions, share updates, send homework and stay connected throughout the learning process. This open communication helps ensure parents are always in the loop and can support their child's progress.

High Quality Tutors

We believe that kindness, patience and understanding are the most important qualities in a tutor, and our tutors embody these values. Alongside these qualities, they bring extensive experience, hold various qualifications (you can find more details in their profiles) and are all DBS checked, ensuring both high-quality lessons and a safe, welcoming learning environment. 

Each Lesson Builds on the Last

We believe that learning works best when it feels steady, connected, and supportive. That’s why our classes follow a clear path — each lesson builds on the last, helping students deepen their understanding week by week. With the same tutor and a familiar group of peers, learners benefit from a consistent and encouraging environment.

Our Subjects

Swan tutoring has made such a difference in my son's learning, and life. The lessons are engaging despite being remote which is such a skill. My son always learns and retains it incredibly well. The lessons are such good value for money. Highly recommend to anyone.

FAQs

  • Navigate to the subject of your choice, and click the Book Now button to choose a class that works for you.

  • Lessons are booked in 13-week blocks, with fees spread over 4 monthly payments. Contracts automatically renew unless notice is given before the next block’s first payment

  • If the day/time or level isn’t quite right, you’re welcome to switch to another class within the same subject — as long as there’s a time that works for you and space available.

  • All our lessons are taught on zoom. Our teachers communicate with parents through WhatsApp group chats that we set up and manage.

  • In most cases, yes! While it depends on the subject, teacher, and weekly plan, you can expect high-quality lesson materials and homework that support your learning and help you get the most out of each class.

  • We aim to have a minimum of 10 and a maximum of 15 students per class, but in some cases, classes can be smaller. Please note that weekly attendance may vary due to holidays, illness, and other factors.

  • Most of our lessons cost £8 for a half-hour session. Fees for each 13-week block are divided into four monthly payments, making it easier to budget rather than paying the full block upfront. On average, this works out at around £26 per month, per class.

  • Cancellations mid-block aren’t possible because your child’s place is reserved for the full 13-week block, ensuring a consistent and stable learning environment. Once booked, you’re committed to paying for the block through the agreed monthly payment plan.


    To stop after a block, you must provide written notice before the first payment of the next 13-week block. It's the parent/guardian's responsibility to ensure notice is given on time. If notice ins't reiceved on time, the contract automatically renews for the next block, and full fees for that block will apply.

  • All our teachers are fully qualified in their respective fields with teaching experience, and are fully DBS checked.
