How can we help you?

The more complete and detailed your ad, the more credibility it will have with students and the higher up the lists it will rise. Here are some tips:

The title of your ad must be more than 12 words.

Write down at least 40 words in the "Teaching" and "Experiences" sections of your ad;

Do not forget to validate your phone number and your email address by clicking verify;

Add your qualifications to the site in the form of a diploma or certificate;

Add a clear, portrait photo to your ad;

Ask your friends, family, and former students to leave you a recommendation;

Add a video to your ad, it's a real plus!

You also need to be as responsive as possible to the lesson requests you receive. The faster you answer, even if it's to decline the request, the higher your profile will be ranked. 👍

Have your Superprof students leave reviews on your profile. You can leave a review for them too a week after the lesson has been accepted. If you do an automatic email will be sent, inviting them to do the same.

And finally, take a look at our Pro Pass. 🎉

Creating your tutor ad could not be simpler, just follow the step by step instructions on Superprof and fill out each section. Here are a few helpful tips to help make it as visible as possible to potential students, allowing them to find you:

Highlight your Strengths (your skills, your experience...)

Ask yourself why a potential client may choose you over another peer tutor. Explain what differentiates you and makes your private lessons exceptional. Explain your learning style and teaching methodology.

Tell your Story

Teaching is not just about passing on your knowledge; it is also about building a bond of trust with your students. Showing your human side is very important. Showing that you’re an interesting and thoughtful person, willing and capable of listening to others. Mention your hobbies, groups you’re part of, your travels, your past work experience, and successes in life.

Focus on the Benefits: What are you Providing to your Future Students?

Try to avoid technical terms difficult to comprehend. Also avoid bland or cliché phrases that do not detail what you will provide. For example, do not just say “I teach maths at all levels and for all abilities", mention the exact levels at which you teach (GCSE, A-level, Gmat, Sats, college etc.) as well as the exact topics (algebra, trigonometry, geometry, calculus, etc.)

Include a Picture that Makes you Stand Out

Clear frontal photos of your face are an important way for students and teachers to learn about each other. You will increase the number of contacts you make 10 fold by adding a high quality, profile picture of yourself.

Review your Ad

An advertisement full of mistakes will not be taken seriously. Re-read your ad with a text editor and make a final review before publishing.

If you do not have a review from a Superprof student already, we require you to offer your first lesson for free. Even if you do have a review, Superprof recommends that you offer the first class for free because;

It allows you to make a connection with the student

The purpose of the first meeting is not to give a class to your pupil, but to get to know and understand what their needs are, set up a lesson plan and a teaching method that will allow your pupil to reach his/her goals. 

It is a small investment for a greater reward

Offering one hour of your time for free to a student who may use your services all year and spread the word about your services is an excellent investment.

It reassures students

Students will contact you more frequently; it is more engaging for them.

The first lesson offered for free is a chance for you and your student to get to know each other however, it does not have to be a formal lesson unless you and the student agree amongst yourselves to do so. 

The first free lesson could be a discussion about your aims and objectives or your teaching methods for example, or it could be a trial lesson to assess the students ability. 

Whatever form your free lesson takes, be sure to agree this with the student before hand, and make sure they understand what is being offered in this first meeting.

Profile transparency

We ask our tutors to be as transparent as posible in their teaching ads and carefully detail their experience, methodology and resume.

Verification of their personal details and the information provided

We verify the identity, personal details (telephone number, e-mail address, photo) and university diploma of all of our tutors.

100% authentic reviews – The strength of the community

We verify all of the reviews and recommendations that our tutors receive to guarantee that they are 100% authentic. Only our members can leave reviews for our tutors. You can rest assured that our tutors are excellent, competent and available thanks to our community of millions of students!

Both their ratings (for example: 5/5) and their response time (for example: 1 hour) are displayed and refreshed in real time.

You can also see the tutor’s last connexion on Superprof so that you can check their recent activity on the site.

Recommendations from their former students and friends

The reviews and recommendations the tutors receive from their former students can give you an idea of the quality of their lessons and their teaching style.
