World-Class Education,
At Your Fingertips.
At the heart of My Private Tutor Online is a singular vision: academic support that is both exceptional and deeply personal. Founded in 2010 by Elizabeth Burrows—a Cambridge-accepted educator and former Forbes journalist—the company began not as a business, but as a trusted network of elite colleagues she met throughout her international tutoring career.
What started as a circle of personal recommendations has since evolved—organically and exclusively—into one of the UK's most respected names in specialist private tutoring. As testament, My Private Tutor Online is honoured to be featured in Tatler's Address Book and recognised as School Guide's 'Top Pick' for private tuition.
15 years later, the ethos remains the same: every tutor is handpicked, every match thoughtfully made, and every family accommodated directly by Elizabeth and her team.

Who We Support
We work with a wide range of learners, offering guidance and transformation at every level:
Parents come to us when something truly matters—an entrance exam, a lost sense of confidence, a desire for academic stretch. They stay with us because we deliver real progress, quietly and expertly. This is not a tutoring directory. This is a bespoke service for ambitious families looking for trusted partners in their child's academic career.— Elizabeth Burrows, Founder
