Every tutor on Fennby is checked, trained, and visible, so you never have to wonder.
You're trusting someone with your child's learning, and sometimes their confidence too. Here's exactly how we make sure that trust is deserved, not just promised.
Every tutor, before day one
- ✓ Identity + enhanced DBS check cleared
- ✓ Signed conduct & safeguarding agreement
- ✓ Safeguarding and SEND training complete
- ✓ Clear earning terms before sessions begin
Enhanced DBS, every single tutor
No one meets your child before their check clears, no exceptions.
Every message, session, and note is visible to you
Nothing happens off the record, ever.
Trained, not just checked
Safeguarding and SEND training before they take a single lesson.
Verified examiner history, where it's real
Clearly marked as verified, never treated the same as an unchecked claim.
Tutors can also let us know about their own experience with dyslexia, autism, ADHD, or speech and language needs, and where a family's child benefits from that experience, our matching gives it real weight. And because we mean it about SEND, SEND support is part of the ordinary Fennby learning journey, not an afterthought. Read more on our SEND & Accessibility page.
If you're thinking of tutoring with us, this bit's for you
Happy tutors make happy, successful kids, so looking after you properly isn't a nice-to-have for us, it's the whole point. No bullying, harassment, or abuse from anyone on this platform, parent or child, will ever be tolerated. If something goes wrong, there's a real person you can reach, and we'll back you.
Fennby uses a clear platform commission on paid sessions so safeguarding, parent visibility, support, and payment operations are funded properly. The rate is shown in your earnings area before sessions are confirmed, with no hidden sliding scale.
