How Do Online Lessons Work?
Our virtual online classrooms use digital whiteboards with integrated audio and video capability. The entire whiteboard contents can be recorded at your request or downloaded after each lesson for your notes. Both tutor and student can write on the whiteboard and learning material can be uploaded to the learning space.
This means a highly effective and efficient one to one tutoring session can take place, without the pupil having to spend any time making notes.

A Better Way to Find Online Tuition
Many online tuition websites are tutor directories. They leave parents to compare profiles, check qualifications and decide who might be right.
Principal Tutors works differently.
We are not just a directory of tutors. We actively match each pupil with a suitable qualified teacher. This helps ensure your child receives tuition from someone with the right subject knowledge, classroom experience and teaching style.
If the first match is not quite right, we will revisit the process and arrange an alternative tutor.
Online Tuition with Qualified UK Teachers
We only work with professionally qualified teachers who have experience teaching the UK curriculum. They understand how topics are taught in school, what exam boards expect, and how to explain difficult concepts clearly.
You can rest assured that we thoroughly vet all tutors including checking their DBS, qualifications and references.
This gives parents confidence that their child is receiving support from someone who knows both the subject and the education system.
Is Online Tuition Effective?
Online tuition can be highly effective when it is delivered by the right tutor.
It gives pupils access to expert teaching without travel, making it easier to fit lessons around school, homework and family life.
Online lessons can help pupils:
- catch up after gaps in learning;
- improve confidence;
- strengthen subject knowledge;
- prepare for GCSEs, A-Levels or 11+ exams;
- receive one-to-one attention that may not always be possible in school;
- revisit lesson recordings and whiteboard notes where available.
With Principal Tutors, online tuition is tailored to your child’s needs and delivered by qualified teachers.
