It probably goes without saying that this is our busiest time of year. We’ve had so many students requesting last minute (is two months before an exam last minute?) help for A-levels or GCSEs in June. Obviously in one sense this is a good thing, but it’s so frustrating to think that they could have contacted us two or three months ago, and probably had the same number, or fewer lessons, and benefitted so much more.
Something I’ve been doing over the last week is looking for assessors outside of London, Oxford and Cambridge, starting with the major cities around the UK. The plan is to set assessors up in a city, which will allow us to get more tutors there, and advertise more effectively for students. So far the response has been good, and I’m just waiting to hear from one more person. Obviously then I’ll have a fair amount of travelling to do, but I’m sure it’ll be well worth it.
