at a slight change by doing supply work and some private tutoring. I would like to hear from anyone with views or information on the following:

1. What would I need in terms of legal cover etc for tutoring at a student's house?
2. How much could I charge for Maths initially at KS2 but possibly upto KS4?
3. Would people reccomend an agency or self promoted?
4. Where is the best place to advertise?
5. Any other information?

Hiscox are good for insurance, good value and easy to setup.

As for pricing - anything between £15-£30 an hour is the norm. You can get up to £40/hour if in the right area and subject.

Good luck finding students
