Our Placements
Types of VIP tutor placement we offer
EED places tutors across a range of formats — from ongoing subject support to intensive residential programmes. Every placement is tailored to the student's specific needs and goals.
School Entrance Tutor
Targeted preparation for 7+, 11+, 13+ and Common Entrance. Our tutors are experienced with the specific requirements of London's leading independent schools — Eton, Harrow, Westminster, St Paul's, Wycombe Abbey and many more.
University Entrance Tutor
Specialist support for Oxbridge applications, UCAS personal statements, admissions tests (UCAT, LNAT, PAT, MAT) and US Ivy League applications. Many of our tutors are Oxbridge graduates themselves.
Residential VIP Tutor
A live-in tutor providing daily academic support as part of the household — ideal for families spending extended time at a second home or estate. The tutor travels with the family and provides consistent academic continuity wherever you are.
Holiday Intensive Tutor
Intensive academic programmes during school holidays — designed to accelerate progress, close gaps or prepare for upcoming examinations. Available to travel to any destination. Also available as part of our holiday tutor programme.

The difference between a good tutor and a great one is not just subject knowledge — it is the ability to build a relationship with the student, understand their learning style and make difficult material genuinely engaging. EED only places tutors who can do both.
-
Teaching qualified — not just graduates
Every EED tutor holds a formal teaching qualification — PGCE, QTS or equivalent — in addition to their degree. Subject knowledge alone is not enough. Our tutors know how to teach, not just how to know.
-
Matched to the student
We take time to understand the student's learning style, academic gaps, personality and goals before introducing any candidate. The right match makes the difference between adequate progress and exceptional results.
-
International travel as standard
Our tutors travel with families between London, Dubai, the South of France, Switzerland and beyond. Academic continuity is therefore maintained wherever you are in the world.
-
Complete discretion
Many of our tutoring clients are high-profile families for whom discretion is essential. NDAs are available on every placement as standard.
"Within a week, the agency had the perfect candidate. Over 7 months our children learned to speak English fluently — it was incredible. We recommend EED to all our friends and relatives."

Common Questions
VIP tutoring — frequently asked questions
What is a VIP tutor?
A VIP tutor is a highly qualified private tutor placed with exceptional or high-profile families who require a premium, discreet service. EED's VIP tutors are teaching-qualified professionals — typically PGCE or QTS holders with degrees from leading universities — who provide tailored one-to-one academic support at the highest level.
How much does a VIP tutor cost?
VIP tutor rates typically range from £80 to £250+ per hour for sessional tutoring, depending on subject, level and qualifications. Residential or live-in tutors are quoted on a daily or weekly rate. Holiday intensive programmes and rota arrangements are quoted separately. Contact EED for a detailed quote based on your specific requirements.
Can the tutor travel internationally with us?
Yes — international travel is standard for many of our tutoring placements. Our tutors regularly travel with families between London, Dubai, the South of France, Switzerland and beyond. Academic continuity is maintained wherever you are. We handle all travel documentation as required.
What subjects and curricula do you cover?
EED places tutors across all core academic subjects — Mathematics, English, Sciences, Humanities and Languages — at all levels from primary through to university entrance. We cover the British curriculum (GCSE, A-Level), IB, AP, and international curricula. We also place tutors specialising in Oxbridge entrance, Ivy League applications and specific admissions tests.
What is the difference between a tutor and a governess?
A tutor focuses on academic subject support — targeted help with specific subjects, examinations or academic skills. A governess provides a broader educational role combining language development, pastoral care, academic tuition and cultural education as part of daily life. Many EED families employ both. Visit our governess agency page or our guide to hiring a governess to learn more.
Do you work with family offices and PAs?
Yes — many of our tutoring enquiries come through executive assistants and family offices acting on behalf of principals. We are experienced working discreetly with intermediaries and can adapt our communication to your requirements. All information is treated with the strictest confidentiality.
