How do I write a great tutor blurb?

I'm a tutor article! Learn what to include in your tutor blurb and how to make a great first impression on parents and students.

What is a tutor blurb?

Your tutor blurb is the short introduction shown on your private tutoring profile. It's one of the first things parents and students see when deciding whether to contact you.

A clear, engaging blurb helps parents understand who you are, how you teach and whether you're the right tutor for them.

What should I include in my tutor blurb?

We recommend keeping your blurb:

  • Short – make it easy to read.

  • Engaging – help parents get to know you.

  • Focused on you – your profile may show multiple subjects, so write about yourself rather than individual subjects.

You could include:

  • your teaching style

  • your approach to learning

  • what pupils or students can expect from your lessons

  • the strengths and experience you bring as a tutor
