How Hometutor works
From your first search to your fiftieth session — here's exactly what happens at each step.
Search by subject, grade and schedule
Tell us what your child needs help with and when you're free. We'll surface verified tutors who match — filter further by price, teaching mode or rating.
Book a free 30-minute trial
Pick a date and time that works, add a note about what to focus on, and meet your tutor — no payment required for the trial.
Decide together whether to continue
After the trial, rate the session and choose to book ongoing weekly sessions, try a different tutor, or take more time to decide. No pressure, no auto-renewal surprises.
Track everything from your dashboard
Upcoming sessions, notes from past lessons, shared study materials and payment history all live in one parent dashboard — no digging through email threads.
For parents
