A travelling tutor accompanies a family or joins them overseas, teaching at agreed times. Tuition can maintain schoolwork, develop subjects or prepare for examinations. We shape the educational brief and coordinate the tutor search.
Yes. You can request a tutor for one week, a fortnight or part of a holiday. Share the destination, dates, subjects and preferred hours so we can explore availability.
We assess destinations individually. Share the countries, dates and onward stops. Tutor availability, travel and relevant entry or work permissions must be confirmed before a placement is agreed.
Yes. Include each destination and travel day in the brief. We consider teaching time, accommodation, transport and rest. Later route changes need agreement before new travel is booked.
Yes. Share the year group, subjects, examination boards and schoolwork to help align the programme. Any school liaison or sharing of records is agreed with you separately.
Yes. Share the qualification, subjects, examination boards, dates and priorities. We explore relevant subject expertise and plan revision, practice and feedback around the trip.
Hours are agreed around age, concentration, goals and family plans. Morning lessons with breaks may suit revision; a broader programme needs a different rhythm. Teaching, preparation and time off are defined before the stay.
Possibly, if their subjects, stages and schedules are compatible. Separate sessions or shared teaching may work; some briefs need more than one specialist. Share each child’s broad requirements without names initially.
Yes. A tutor needs suitable private accommodation, meals, transport and a quiet study space. This may be within your property or nearby. Arrangements and associated costs are agreed before the stay.
The tutor’s primary role is education. Childcare, driving and supervision outside lessons are included only if expressly agreed. Tell us about any additional responsibilities so roles, hours and suitability can be clarified.
Yes. Tuition can maintain a routine between schools and prepare a student for a new curriculum. Share the move dates, current studies and next school’s start date so we can plan the transition.
Weekly tuition starts from £1,500 per week. Teaching hours, subjects, expertise and destination shape the quotation, including any travel or accommodation charges. Full-time salaried tutor roles range from £45,000–£180,000 per year; other appointment costs are confirmed separately.
Enquire when likely dates and destinations are known. More notice gives greater scope to find the right expertise and resolve travel arrangements. For short-notice requests, share the deadline and any flexibility.
Travelling Tutors, owned by Clear Group Limited, receives and manages your enquiry. We discuss your requirements and coordinate the search. The tutor is sourced from our extensive tutor and partner network.
We consider subjects, curriculum, learning style, interests and practical arrangements. We then discuss suitable tutor experience and personal fit with you, including an introductory conversation where helpful.

Travelling Tutors remains your coordination contact. Before the stay, we agree the tutor’s responsibilities, review arrangements, contact availability and scope of ongoing support. You will know who to contact about teaching, practical matters or concerns.
Contact us promptly. We review the concern and explore adjustments, rearranged sessions or an alternative tutor. Availability and the agreed terms determine replacement, cancellation and fees; immediate cover is not guaranteed.
Reviews consider work completed, understanding, independent-study habits and the next priorities. Before tuition starts, agree who provides updates, how often and whether a written summary is included.
