How It Works
No long forms. No waiting lists. A short conversation, the right tutor, and sessions that start moving the grade from week one.
Tell us the subject, year group, exam board and what's actually slipping. One short call with Joe or Harry, no forms, no auto-routing.
Every tutor is interviewed on subject knowledge, how they explain things, and how they work with young people. We match on all three.
Online one-to-one through Lessonspace, weekly and consistent. Most families notice the change in confidence within the first few sessions.
Why The Degree Gap
Four things that change how the match lands, and why families stay.
01
Every match starts with a real conversation with Joe or Harry. No sales team, no auto-routing, no form-to-introduction pipeline.
02
AQA Maths and Edexcel Maths are different papers. We match on subject, exam board and how the student learns. Not just the subject.
03
Sessions run on Lessonspace with session replay. The right specialist in the country, not the nearest one geographically.
04
If a tutor isn't the right fit, tell us. We re-match. No awkward conversation, no process. Around 3% of applicants make it on, so the pool is strong.

Over 100 five-star reviews on Google. A few from parents and students we've worked with recently.
The Degree Gap has exceeded all my expectations. They have gone above and beyond to pair both my sons with the appropriate tutors. Both exceeded their expected grades in their GCSEs and A Levels and got into their first choice universities.
My son, who is in Year 10, really struggled with English and was completely disengaged. After six months of tutoring, he has improved from a grade 5 to a 6/7. He now looks forward to his lessons.
My son gained almost two grades higher than his year 13 mock paper. His tutor was excellent.
My daughter was struggling with confidence in Maths GCSE. Our tutor was a complete star, listened, made it simple, set good homework and gave my daughter her confidence back. Highly recommend.

You speak to a founder first, Joe or Harry. We listen for the specific gap, then match on three things: subject knowledge, exam board, and how the student learns. AQA Maths and Edexcel Maths are not the same paper, so we match on the spec, not just the subject.
Tell us. We re-match without friction. We'd rather find the right person than have a student sitting through sessions that aren't working. No awkward conversation, no process.
Independent tutors on our platform, vetted personally by the founders. All are graduates from top Russell Group universities. Most have at least two years of one-to-one tutoring experience. Around 3% of applicants make it on.
Sessions run on Lessonspace, the shared whiteboard built for one-to-one work. Every lesson is recorded so students can revisit it during revision. Online means the right specialist in the country, not the nearest one geographically.
Sessions start from £37 per hour. More experienced tutors and qualified examiners sit higher. The rate sits with the tutor, agreed before anything is booked. No contracts, no minimum sessions.
Most parents notice tone-of-voice change before they see a mark scheme change. Grade movement, in bands not points, usually follows within a half term of weekly sessions with the right tutor.
Yes. We work with families pushing for top mark bands and competitive applications. Our most experienced tutors include qualified examiners. Harry, co-founder, is an LSE graduate and has supported students into Oxford, Cambridge, LSE and UCL.
Get In Touch
Subject, year group, exam board, what the student is trying to land. That's all we need to start matching.
One short conversation. We'll match your child with a tutor who knows the exam board, the mark scheme, and how to actually move the grade.
