Spires provide premium online private tuition through a marketplace model where each tutor sets their own hourly rate via a sealed‑bid auction on our private tutoring platform. Starting rates typically begin at:

• £30 per hour for school‑level tuition (KS3, GCSE, IGCSE, IB, A‑Level)
• £40 per hour for undergraduate university tuition
• £50 per hour for Master’s/Postgraduate study, professional and chartered exam preparation, and university admissions support

Actual prices may be higher depending on the tutor’s experience and qualification. Students only pay for the hours booked; Stripe processes secure international payments automatically after each class. There are no placement fees, no long‑term contracts, and Spires does not apply discounts — individual private tutors may negotiate their own rates. Tutors may charge full fees for no‑shows.
