Help finding a Tutor

Hello,

I have an 8 yr old daughter who needs help with maths and English. Homework help would be great too as I have smaller children and evenings can be chaotic. We are thinking of moving to the countryside however some of the schools we are applying for are oversubscribed and need an entrance exam. I think I need to find a tutor as I just don't have enough time sadly or the patience. No one seems to admit to having tutors so I have no idea where to look :( any help would be greatly appreciated. We are not applying to London schools so hopefully that helps. Thank you so much x

What area are you in? Local facebook groups might be a good place to ask. We have a local Dyslexia centre who have tutors based there, do you have something like this near by?

Hi Lara, we are in Fulham. I have not thought about Facebook groups before. Should I just search for tutor groups maybe? Thank you :)

What I meant was for example where I live we have a *** Community Board so if I had a question I would pop on there and ask, for example - recommendations for a tutor for 8 yr old girl etc

I used this website when I was searching for a tutor for my eldest girl.

Have you had a look at Belgravia Education? She's a former head teacher and my friend said she takes on a few children each year for tutoring.
