What’s the Tutor Rep scheme?
The rep scheme exists to open up the lines of communication between tutors and MyTutor. By meeting with 6 elected tutors each month, it’s a chance for us to hear about the things that matter to you most, and for you to feel represented, have your voice heard, and get to know other tutors on the platform. We trialled it from March to October 2021, and are thrilled to be relaunching it for January 2022.
Who are the reps?
Maylin is studying Medicine at Manchester University, and has completed 50 lessons on MyTutor since she joined in 2021. She tutors Maths, English and Science from KS2 up to GCSE, and works across the school and private side of MyTutor.

How were they selected?
Applications were open to all tutors, and after answering some questions and submitting a video, submissions were handed over to this year’s reps. They shortlisted applications down to 30, which is when we invited all of you to vote for your final 6 in order of preference.
By voting in order of preference, it allowed us to ensure the final 6 tutors represented you all fully – that means a range of subjects taught, working across schools and private lessons, and varying experience on the platform.
How can I get in touch with them?
Make sure to join the Facebook Forum, and post using the hashtag #TutorReps to get their attention. You can also submit things to the Suggestions Box to make sure your voice is heard.
Using your feedback, your reps will write the agenda for their monthly meetings with us. Then they’ll share the meeting notes they take from each session here.
If you have any questions or feedback about this article, we’re all ears. Get in touch via live chat, or at tutors@mytutor.co.uk or 0203 773 6024.
