Qualifications
We welcome tutors who have QTS or are studying for a degree (in any subject) and have a B grade (or above) at A Level (or equivalent) in the subject they wish to tutor. English or Maths-related A Level subjects are also considered, such as: History, Politics or Sociology (for English tutors) and Physics, Chemistry or Economics (for Maths tutors). Specialised certificates or diplomas may also help with some of our courses.
This is to ensure that you are confident and comfortable with the topics you will be tutoring.

Learn MK complies with the relevant DBS Code of Practice and undertakes to treat all applicants for positions fairly.
