I chose First Tutors because I was able to carry out the matching process myself. The profiles give a clear indication of experience and qualifications and provide some information about a tutor's approach so I was able to choose a tutor who I thought would best suit my son. I like the fact that information about pricing and willingness to travel are in a standard format which makes it easy to make comparisons. It is also useful to see whether a tutor is teaching during the day and therefore has current knowledge of their subject. I was very pleased with the tutor that I contacted and would recommend First Tutors.
