Pay and status rules
Use current UK minimum-wage, employment-status, and right-to-work guidance before confirming the budget.
UK setup and records
Keep written duties, payment records, checks, insurance notes, and any household arrangements together before matching.
Subject, level, and format
Homework help, languages, exam preparation, online sessions, live-in tutoring, travel learning, and bilingual routines change the budget.
Preparation and family fit
Include lesson planning, progress updates, references, trial sessions, safeguarding expectations, and any childcare-adjacent duties.
Planning example
Calculate scope before price
Start with duties, hours, live-in expectations, travel, and compliance checks before comparing headline rates.
Avoid one-rate comparisons
Two roles with the same title can cost very differently when responsibility, risk, availability, and records differ.
