About Bright Heart Education

Written by the company

Bright Heart is an award-winning SEN-focused tutoring agency based in London.

We transform lives through trusted, nurturing special needs tuition

We won the Tuition Business of the Year award in the 2022 National Tutoring Awards (runners-up in 2023, 2024 & 2025). We were also runners-up in the categories Alternative Provision Provider in 2025 and Best Tuition Delivery to Private Clients in 2023. We were also a finalist in the EducationInvestor Awards for SEN Supporter of the Year in 2025.

Bright Heart helps students with learning challenges or SEMH needs, those lacking confidence or motivation, and those who have fallen behind in school. It also provides home-schooling tuition overseen by UK-qualified teachers. Our nurturing approach boosts learning and confidence.

Our experienced team is passionate about helping children and young people achieve their potential. Our education consultants (experienced UK-qualified teachers) take the time to fully understand students’ unique learning needs, ensure that we provide well-matched tutors, and oversee tutoring.

Students receive individual learning plans (ILPs) that cater not only to their academic requirements but also to their SEMH needs. ILPs serve as a roadmap, guiding tutors to deliver tailored tuition that keeps students’ learning on track.

Tutors are carefully screened, personally interviewed by a director, background checked (including Enhanced DBS with children’s barred list check), and met in person. Tutors receive training and guidance on tutoring and safeguarding practices and adhere to our tutoring standards, Safeguarding and Child Protection Policy, and Online Tutoring Policy.

Our tutors have the patience, understanding and necessary experience to ensure that sensitive learning situations are handled with care. Tutors embody Bright Heart’s student-centred approach, taking the time to listen and connect to students, enhancing trust, self-esteem, and self-belief before building on academic abilities.

We cover from Reception to A-level and offer adult support. While we focus on English, maths and science, we cover most subjects. We offer supplementary tuition and interim education, covering the entire curriculum. In addition, we provide help with lifelong skills like study techniques and transition into adulthood.

Bright Heart offers in-person tutoring in London and parts of Surrey and Kent, and online tutoring nationwide and internationally. We work with private clients, local authorities, and schools (we were an accredited National Tutoring Programme (NTP) Tuition Partner).

Bright heart took a little time to research and find an appropriate tutor for my daughter. The short wait was worth the while and my daughter couldn’t like her tutor more. She is beginning to learn and retain new maths information in the focussed but fun lessons with her new tutor. We are very happy.

Excellent tutoring provided

We have been using a couple of different tutors in the last couple of years to support the learning process of our daughter who has special needs. Habiba - the tutor who has been working on a regular basis with our daughter - is an excellent tutor, able to use creative teaching methods and make learning a positive experience. Our daughter has made significant progress at school, thank you, Habiba!

Best Decision I've Ever Made …

I started looking for a tutoring position in September 2018 and interviewed at several agencies. Though these were successful, I only accepted one of the job offers – a role at Bright Heart Education. When I was interviewed by Ryan and Simon at Bright Heart Education, I was struck by their passion and commitment – not only did they care about the students, they cared about the tutors. Their heart based approach set them apart from the others, they genuinely care and are very grounded in their ethos. Over the years, they have been consistently supportive and have always made the time to speak and communicate with both clients and tutors alike. A lot of thought and care goes into their process of finding the ‘perfect fit’ for the student and the tutor – it has been really successful and I have had so many wonderful fulfilling roles due to this. I am very appreciative of their dedication to support tutors such as myself, as well as the students and clients. They ‘round out’ a fantastic support system for each individual. Furthermore, their approach to safeguarding is thorough and efficient meaning that we are confident in our approach and abilities. Joining the team at Bright Heart Education in 2018 has been one of the best decisions I have ever made. I could not recommend them enough.

and supportive agency to work for. Their holistic approach ensures everyone involved- from students to parents to tutors- feel supported and validated. I feel I have learnt so much from working with them about helping young people’s confidence, safety, advancement and futures. I feel any family would benefit from their caring support.

Kane is very patient with Tilly , constructive and an excellent teacher . we did have some confusion over a lesson date when he didn't turn up but everyone makes mistakes and I may not have been clear. We are very happy with the English work he is doing with Tilly and she comments on him doing a good job.

Simona is an excellent tutor

Simona is an excellent tutor - my son really struggles with maths because of his dyscalculia , and as a consequence loathes maths lessons- but asked for further sessions after his first session with her
She is helping him build confidence by reinforcing basic mathematical knowledge
I am a very happy customer

Experienced and caring tutors

Finding specialist tutors is not easy. Speaking to Brightheart for the first time felt reassuring as they do understand all learners and different learning styles as well as neurodiversity. We were matched with a young tutor who is very capable, easy to communicate with in order to schedule sessions and is adaptable. He is a good role model for our son and gives us good advice. Our tutor Klevis is well prepared and really cares about the academic and pastoral well being of our son. Klevis was able to build rapport with our son in the first session and paces the lessons well. Klevis is an experienced and caring tutor. Highly recommend.

Really good service and exceptional tutuor!

We spent time finding the right fit for a tutor for our son for maths. It was worked out so well and our son is doing well with the extra support. It is a real value adding effort.
The tutor, Harris is amazing, he spends time building the relationship around football, which our son loves. But also ensures work is done and uses lots of interactive approaches. We also have good communication and flexibility around the lessons.
Well done Bright Heart Education and Harris you are doing a really good job!

Great tutor

Bright Heart Education were great at finding the right tutor for my daughter who has dyscalculia. Our tutor Antonia, on the first lesson connected with my 7 year old daughter and was able to engage her which is crucial. My daughter who does not enjoy Maths due to her learning difficulty, actually looks forward to lessons with Antonia and the lessons are fun, productive and rewarding.
I would recommend Bright Heart Education in finding the right tutor for your child/children.

Our son can't wait when the tutor Emily from the Bright Heart comes again. She managed to get him interested in different subjects he learns at school, to motivate and raise his self esteem. She is kind and inspiring. Her presence is life changing, indeed!

Amazing!

I came across Brightheart after noticing that my 5 year old son was struggling at school, particularly when it came to deciphering letters and simple maths tasks. Unfortunately dyslexia cannot be tested for until children are older, but I wanted to find a tutor that could look for any potential signs and come up with some techniques that would help him, without him feeling that he was being singled out for 'extra help'. Brightheart were the answer! I spoke with John at length about my son's needs and he was extremely understanding and professional. A week later we met our tutor Melodie who my son had an instant bond with. She recognised all the issues I had been concerned about and set out a plan that was suited to my son. Her sessions involve lots of play-based and visual learning, which has worked miracles. My son is so much more confident and thanks to Melodie's advice we now also have a special educational needs plan in place at school too. Brightheart provide more than just a tutoring service, they give the child (and the parents) the tools to understand any concerns and confront them head on but in a manner that is very subtle. I can't recommend the Brightheart team enough! Thank you!
