📎 How to Send Files to Your Tutor

Sharing files with your tutor is easy! It’s also a great way to share helpful information with your tutor so they can better support your learning.

Just follow these simple steps:


Step 1: Get Your File Ready

  • Keep it under 7MB

  • Use common formats like PDF, Word, PowerPoint (PDF works best!)

  • Sending multiple documents? You can combine them into one folder and compress it (called a zip file) before uploading.


🔒 Step 2: Check for Personal Info

Before uploading, make sure your file doesn't include:

  • Your child's full name

  • Your home address

  • Any other personal or sensitive information

This helps keep your child safe and secure online.


💬 Step 3: Upload Through Messages

  • Click the 📎 Paperclip icon next to the message box

  • Select your file

  • Hit Send – and you're done!


📧 Having Trouble?

If the file is too large or you're having trouble:

  • Email the document to our team at: support@mytutor.co.uk

  • Include your tutor’s name and the date of your next lesson

  • We'll help get it to your tutor!


💡 Top Tips

  • Use a clear file name (e.g. “Maths_Homework_Week3.pdf”)

  • Use a laptop or desktop computer to upload your file - not a mobile phone.

  • Make sure you’re on a stable internet connection during upload
