We all are on the lookout for good tutors. Lucy started tutoring in 1991 and set up her own well-respected tutor agency in 2000. Since then she has accumulated a wealth of experience in the sector and has over 200 of the countries leading tutors on her books. In the first in a series of posts, we look at the people behind the brands Almost Essential recommends. Here is our quick Q&A with Lucy the tutor finder!

One word to describe yourself?
Postive

The last music you listened to?
My son playing his Grade 1 guitar pieces!

Your favourite restaurant?
Le Cafe du Marche in Spitalfields

The last book you read?
Notes on a Nervous Planet by Matt Haig

A motto you try to live by?
Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass; it’s about learning to dance in the rain

Why did you start your business?
I wanted to offer more support to both clients and tutors than other agencies were doing. We specialise in the introduction of private tutors and we match tutors to students on a 1-to-1 basis. My aim has always been creating and fostering excellent relationships between student and tutor.
