Terms of Use

This is placeholder wording, not a finished legal document. Before this site goes live, have a UK solicitor draft or review proper Terms of Use — including how liability, data protection (UK GDPR) and safeguarding responsibility are allocated between Trusted Tutors and the independent tutors listed here. Do not rely on this page as-is.

What Trusted Tutors is

Trusted Tutors is an independent tutor directory that helps parents and students find and contact independent tutors. We are not a tutoring agency, and we do not employ tutors, set their availability, or control how they plan or deliver lessons. Trusted Tutors is intended to be operated by [PLACEHOLDER: legal name of the sole trader operating Trusted Tutors] as a sole trader, subject to confirmation of the final business structure, and is a separate business from PH Tutoring Ltd. Our business correspondence address is [PLACEHOLDER: business correspondence address].

Independent tutors

Every tutor listed on this site operates independently. Tutors are responsible for their own teaching services, lesson arrangements, pricing, cancellation terms and professional conduct. Any agreement to arrange or deliver lessons is made directly between the parent/student and the tutor — Trusted Tutors is not a party to that agreement.

Verification

Some tutors carry verification badges. See our Verification Policy for exactly what each badge does and doesn't confirm. Verification is not a guarantee of a tutor's suitability, and does not transfer any liability for a tutor's conduct to Trusted Tutors.

Parents and students

We encourage you to review a tutor's profile carefully, ask questions directly, and satisfy yourself that a tutor is suitable for your individual requirements — including for younger or vulnerable students — before arranging lessons.

Membership & payment

Tutors may list for free or upgrade to a paid Plus membership (currently £29.99/year) for additional profile features. Paid membership never affects, and is never a substitute for, verification status. Full detail on features, payment, renewal, cancellation and refunds is set out in our Tutor Membership Terms.

Other policies

These Terms of Use should be read together with our Privacy Policy, Verification Policy, Tutor Membership Terms, Safeguarding and Reporting Concerns Policy and Reviews Policy.
