UK 2026 tutor rates

The calculator uses realistic tutor price bands

Tutor rates vary by subject, level, location, experience and lesson format. Primary lessons, GCSE lessons, A-level support, entrance exam prep and specialist tutoring should not all be priced the same.

The best price covers the lesson, preparation, marking, parent messages, resources, travel, admin, tax and the value of your expertise.

General private tutoring

Many UK private tutor rates sit roughly from £20 to £70 per hour, with a practical middle around the mid-thirties depending on subject, level and experience.

GCSE and A-level tutoring

GCSE and A-level tutoring usually prices higher than simple homework help because preparation, exam knowledge and subject depth matter more.

Online and specialist support

Online lessons are often cheaper than in-person lessons, while specialist tutoring, SEND support, entrance exams and high-demand areas can push rates much higher.

Tutor Pricing Examples

Different lessons need different pricing logic

A primary maths lesson, A-level chemistry lesson, entrance exam block and SEND support package are different offers. Price them like different offers.

Primary tutoring

Primary lessons are usually priced lower than GCSE or A-level support, but still need to cover planning, resources, parent messages and consistency.

GCSE tutoring

GCSE tutoring often needs exam-board knowledge, targeted revision planning, marking and progress updates, so it should not be priced like casual homework help.

A-level tutoring

A-level lessons usually need deeper subject knowledge and more preparation, especially for maths, science, essay subjects and university pathway support.

Online lessons

Online tutoring can be more flexible and slightly cheaper, but the tutor still needs to price preparation, lesson resources and communication time properly.

Block bookings

A block of 6, 10 or 12 lessons gives the tutor better cash flow and the parent a clearer commitment. Any discount should be modest and intentional.

Specialist support

SEND support, entrance exam prep and high-touch tutoring can justify higher prices because the work often includes more planning and parent communication.

Useful next steps

Price the lesson, send the link, then track the payment

1

2

Use a payment link for single lessons, blocks, deposits or weekly parent payments.

3

Let reminders follow up

If payment is still due, automatic reminders can follow up without another awkward parent message.
