Private Tuition in Dulwich

Private tuition in Dulwich, tailored to one child at a time. We support pupils from Reception to A-Level with one-to-one and small-group lessons that fit around school, family life and each learner's pace.

Our Dulwich tutors cover the early years, 7+, 11+ and 13+ entrance exams, GCSE and A-Level subjects, and everything in between. Lessons run in person across South-East London or online, so you can choose whatever works best for your household.

Every pupil begins with an initial assessment, then follows a bespoke plan with weekly progress tracking, so you always know how they are getting on and what comes next.

One-to-one and small-group tuition

Most families start with one-to-one tuition, where the whole lesson is built around a single child. It is the quickest way to close a specific gap, prepare for an exam or push an able pupil further. Small-group sessions are also available when children learn well alongside peers, or when families prefer to share the cost.

Whichever format you choose, the tutor sets clear targets, marks work between lessons and adjusts the plan as your child progresses.

Tutoring across Dulwich and South-East London

We are based around Dulwich and know the local school landscape well. Families come to us from East Dulwich, West Dulwich, Herne Hill, Sydenham, Forest Hill, Peckham and Camberwell, and many are preparing for places at schools such as Dulwich College, Alleyn's School and James Allen's Girls' School (JAGS).

In-person lessons can be arranged across the area, and online tuition is available for families who would rather not travel, or who want to keep lessons going during busy weeks and the school holidays.

  • Support for local state, grammar and independent schools
  • In-person lessons across East Dulwich, West Dulwich, Herne Hill and beyond
  • Online tuition for families who prefer to learn from home

Specialist tutors and bespoke learning plans

Every tutor is a subject specialist and DBS-checked. Rather than working from a one-size-fits-all syllabus, they build a bespoke plan for each child, drawn from an initial assessment of strengths and gaps.

Weekly progress tracking keeps everyone aligned: you can see what has been covered, how your child is performing and where the focus turns next. If priorities change — a mock result, an upcoming exam, a wobble in confidence — the plan changes with them.

Results from Reception to A-Level

Our tutors prepare pupils for the full range of milestones, from early reading and times tables to A-Level coursework and final exams. Recent results speak for themselves: 89% of our A-Level students achieved an A or A*, and 84% of our GCSE students achieved grades 7-9.

We also prepare children for 7+, 11+ and 13+ entrance exams, and support school selection and admissions for families weighing up their options.

Booking your first lesson

Getting started begins with an initial assessment so we can match your child with the right tutor and build their plan. The assessment lasts one hour and costs £40 online or £50 in person. It is free to reserve, and payment is only taken once our team has confirmed your slot.

From there, you will have a clear plan, a named tutor and weekly updates. To talk it through first, call 020 3672 4754 or email info@weteachacademy.co.uk.
