When we founded Sophos Education, we had one clear mission: to redefine tutoring and set a new gold standard in private tuition. 


We believe that the best teaching changes everything. The right mentor can unlock a student’s full potential, build confidence, and inspire a love for learning that lasts a lifetime. Yet, in too many cases, students are left hoping they’ll find a great tutor—sifting through profiles, relying on trial and error, and often settling for tutors who simply go through the motions. We knew there had to be a better way. 


At Sophos Education, we have brought together the UK’s most exceptional tutors, all Oxbridge graduates, onto a single platform. Every tutor is carefully selected, not just for their academic excellence but for their ability to challenge, inspire, and transform the way students learn. Every lesson booked is guaranteed to deliver measurable improvement, ensuring that parents no longer have to wonder whether they have made the right choice for their child’s education. 


Both of us, Sophia and Eleanor, understand firsthand the impact of truly outstanding teaching. Sophia was fortunate enough to have had access to exceptional teachers and knew that this level of education should not be a privilege, but a guarantee for every student who strives for excellence. Eleanor’s experience at Oxford and Cambridge showed her the power of the Oxbridge tutorial method, where deep, analytical thinking is fostered through expert-led, one-to-one discussions. But why should this be reserved for university students? The same calibre of education should be available to those preparing for their GCSEs and A-Levels, when it matters most. 


The truth is, one-to-one tuition is the most effective way to accelerate learning. Unlike a classroom setting, where students follow a rigid curriculum at a fixed pace, our tutors tailor every lesson to the individual, ensuring they fully grasp concepts, develop critical thinking skills, and achieve the grades they deserve. 


But this is just the beginning. Our long-term vision is to: 

  • Ensure that every student who has tuition with Sophos Education improves by at least two grades. Results matter, and our tutors are committed to delivering measurable success. 

  • Support our students in securing places at top universities, including Oxford and Cambridge, by offering expert mentoring and guidance on admissions. 

  • Provide bursary programmes to ensure that students, regardless of their financial background, can access the life-changing benefits of expert tutoring. 


We built Sophos Education to create an unparalleled tutoring experience where every lesson is world-class, every tutor is exceptional, and every student is given the tools to succeed.  


This is more than just tuition; it is a new standard for education. And we would love for you to be part of it.
