LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM--(Marketwired - Nov 13, 2013) - Parents and students in the UK have sent over 100,000 enquiries to tutors registered on Thetutorpages.com since the website launched in 2008. The Tutor Pages celebrated this milestone in September of this year.
The news comes as The Tutor Pages became an associate member of The Tutors' Association (TTA), a new professional body launched to provide a focus for the UK's burgeoning private tuition industry. The Tutor Pages brings a unique contribution to The Tutors' Association and to the wider private tuition debate by providing a voice for the thousands of independent tutors across the UK who advertise on its website.
The Tutor Pages is the UK's only comprehensive online publication devoted to the private tuition industry. It includes a tutor jobs board and a private tutor directory recommended by the Good Schools Guide, which lists private tutors as well as tuition centres across the UK. The Tutor Pages also hosts thousands of expert articles on private tuition topics ranging from "Passing a tutor-proof 11 plus exam" to "The benefits of music lessons".
Its acclaimed free e-book for private tutors has recently been updated to include the most up-to-date information on self-employed tax for tutors, insurance, child protection (including DBS certificates), health and safety, self-promotion and effective tutoring.
The Tutor Pages was shortlisted for UK Website of Year in 2012.
