Tutor CV example

What to include in a tutor cv: relevant evidence, skills, sample achievement structures and template suggestions.

A useful starting point

Subject, age range, and a progress proof. One page. Skip QTS claims you do not have. Skip this if you are applying for a school teacher post.

These examples illustrate structure, not a real applicant’s history. Replace every sample detail with your own evidence. Follow the employer’s instructions on qualifications, registration, document length and file format.

Evidence to consider

  • Subjects
  • DBS
  • Online or in-person
  • A result (grade movement, hours)

Illustrative achievement bullets

  • Tutored 12 GCSE Maths students; 9 improved at least one grade in a year
  • Delivered 8 hours a week online with a shared workbook
  • Enhanced DBS, dated 2026
  • Wrote topic tests aligned to AQA spec

Relevant skills to substantiate

Subject knowledge · Lesson planning · Safeguarding · Online delivery · Assessment · Parent updates

What to leave out

  • Photos unless a marketplace profile already uses one and they asked
  • School-teacher language
  • Guaranteed grades

Frequently asked questions

Do I need QTS?

Not for private tutoring. Do not imply you are a school teacher if you are not.

One page?

Yes.

Should I guarantee results?

No. That is a marketing lie. Show past movement instead.
