What should I write in my bio?

Modified on Thu, 23 Jul at 3:07 PM

Your bio is where you introduce yourself and explain why you’re the best tutor for a student. Write it in the first person. Use the template below to structure it.

Introduce yourself

A brief sentence or two introducing yourself to prospective students.

Your teaching or tutoring experience

  • How long you’ve spent teaching or tutoring.
  • Any experience, formal or informal, online or in-person.
  • Specific examples, for example teaching in France as part of a languages degree, or the schools you were placed in during a teaching degree.

How your lessons are structured

Give students a clear idea of what to expect:

  • Do you adapt your style to the student’s age or ability?
  • Do you follow a strict lesson plan, or teach flexibly?
  • Are sessions exam-practice focused?
  • Will you set homework?
  • What do you expect from the student in return?

Any additional information

  • Exam board knowledge or examiner experience (for example AQA or Edexcel), which many GCSE and A Level students look for.
  • Experience with SEN students, with specific examples.

What not to include

  • External or social media links.
  • Contact details such as email or phone number.
  • Reviews or testimonials.
  • References to in-person tutoring.
