Tutors

At Home Learning International we have a network of qualified tutors, specialist in Distance Learning. We have hand selected our tutor support team to unsure that students get the best possible help during their studies. It is important to us that our students have access to support and advice when they need it. One of the biggest concerns for students looking to enrol onto a home learning programme is the level of support they will receive.

Rest assured our courses come with full unlimited support from Monday to Friday. Excluding self-study courses!

Students will have a variety of ways in which our students can correspond with the college and their tutors. Choose between using the telephone, email, freepost or even live chat to correspond with us. You can use them all if you want to. Home Learning has never been simpler!

Tutor details are normally provided inside your study pack or allocated once we receive your first assignment for grading. We aim to provide continual support from the same tutor throughout your course. We don’t like to chop and change tutors. We want you to build a rapport and confidence during the period of studies.

Tutors are experienced the subjects they support have a wealth of knowledge for you to tap into once you decide to enrol. Never be embarrassed to ask questions. No matter how silly you think it might be, if it’s stopping you progressing please contact us. We really have heard it all before. Most minor questions can be answered by the support team using the live chat button. This will give you an instant response to any question you may have. This is a fantastic tool to use even before enrolling and can help tremendously when researching which course to finally enrol onto.

For each assignment you submit you will receive a written report and grade via email or through the post. Reports can contain helpful hints and tips to help you improve as you progress. We have had tremendous feedback from our students relating to tutor support and guidance. See some of the comments on our feedback page. We are more than happy to include comments of your own once you complete.
