What employers look forFrom the Private Tutor guide
Families and their family offices hire qualified, experienced teachers. Expect them to want QTS, a PGCE or a US state teaching licence, plus at least three years in a good prep, independent or international school. An enhanced DBS check or its equivalent is standard. Subject strength matters: maths and sciences up to A level are always in demand, and so are fluent French, Spanish, Mandarin, Arabic or Russian. Discretion counts as much as teaching ability. You will see a lot of private family life, and NDAs are normal.

QuestionsSee what a Private Tutor earns
What tickets should a Private Tutor CV list?
List STCW Basic Safety Training, ENG1 medical certificate, Teaching qualification (QTS, PGCE or US state licence) and Enhanced DBS background check first, each with the date it was issued. Then add Paediatric First Aid and PDSD if you hold them.
How long should a Private Tutor CV be?
Two pages at most. Give your last three jobs in detail and one line each to older ones.
Can I copy this example CV?
Use the layout and the order, then replace every line with your own details. Never list a ticket or a job you do not have: captains and crew agents check certificates and call references.
