How we work
The practice
Sophyra Tutors is led by its Founder and Director, Joseph Russell-Bishop, a chemical engineer and accredited coach. Educational standards and safeguarding are overseen by Natalia Ambridge, a former Head of School and the founder of Education Options. Meet the team
Experienced teachers, carefully chosen
We work with experienced teachers who taught in classrooms long before they tutored for us, and who know the exam boards and schools our students are sitting.
Matched, not assigned
Every student is matched to a tutor by subject, exam board and goal, by a senior member of the team who has read the brief.
Every tutor vetted to the same standard
Every tutor completes our Safer Recruitment process before they meet a student: an interview, qualification checks, written references, a DBS check or overseas police certificate, and our safeguarding training.
Families across the United Kingdom, Europe, and the Gulf
Online, in your time zone and on the student's timetable, for students preparing for GCSE, iGCSE, A-Level and the IB.
