What our education consultants can do for you

Personalised guidance tailored to your goals

Our education consultants offer deeply personalised guidance, ensuring that every student receives support tailored to their unique academic profile and goals. Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, we carefully match each student with the most suitable tutor, providing continuity, personal attention, and detailed feedback after every lesson. This transparency helps families track progress and refine strategies throughout the learning journey.

Access to top universities and programs worldwide

Our consultancy provides proven access to top schools, universities, and programs worldwide, with a remarkable success rate. Our track record includes helping students gain admission to prestigious independent schools like Harrow, St Paul’s, and grammar schools such as Latymer, achieving nearly 100% success in 11+ exams. With our global reach through online platforms, we have successfully guided students across continents, extending opportunities far beyond London.

Expert insights on admissions and visas

One of our strongest advantages lies in offering expert insights into admissions. Dedicated advisors guide families through every stage of the often-complex admissions process, from early-stage preparation to exam readiness, applications, visa guidance and even transition support.

Higher success rates through proven strategies

Our success rates remain consistently high because of carefully developed strategies and a holistic approach to student growth. Telios Tutors doesn’t just focus on grades but emphasises building self-awareness, confidence, and resilience, qualities that prepare students for long-term success. The combination of effective exam strategies and mindset coaching sets us apart from traditional tutoring agencies.

JOE

With 13 years’ teaching experience across multiple age groups, including time spent teaching overseas, I currently work in the independent school sector and specialise in helping families navigate the admissions process with confidence. I have supported pupils preparing for entrance exams and interviews at some of the UK’s leading independent schools, as well as competitive grammar schools in Kent such as The Judd School, Tonbridge Grammar, and Dartford Grammar.

One recent example involved working with a family relocating to the UK, where I guided their child through the 11+ preparation process and interview practice. The student went on to secure offers from multiple top schools, giving the family the confidence and flexibility to choose the right fit.

Outside of teaching, I enjoy travelling, skiing, and surfing, and I bring the same energy and sense of adventure to the work I do with young people and their families.

Dr. STEPHEN

I have spent the past 20 years as Deputy Head and Teacher of Physics at Glenalmond College, where I worked closely with families to guide pupils through their academic journeys. Living at Ardvreck School, where my wife is Headmistress, has also given me strong, ongoing connections with registrars and heads of some of the UK’s most prestigious boarding schools, including Uppingham, Shrewsbury, Malvern, Marlborough, Rugby, Radley, and Sherborne.

Through these connections and years of experience, I am able to offer families valuable, first-hand insights into the culture, strengths, and opportunities at each school, helping them make confident and well-informed decisions. I have also prepared pupils for 13+ entrance exams and Eton Scholarship, combining my academic expertise with a clear understanding of what top schools are looking for in candidates.

My focus is always on finding the right fit for each child — a school where they will thrive both academically and personally — and guiding families with clarity and care throughout the admissions process.

Outside of education, I enjoy golf, mountain climbing, running half marathons, and experimenting in the kitchen.

I specialise in guiding families through the often complex process of senior school admissions at 11+ and 13+. With over seventeen years of experience in the Independent Sector, the last six of which as an Academic Deputy Head, I have supported parents and pupils at every stage – from preparing for entrance tests and interviews to choosing schools and managing application timelines. During this time, I have helped families secure places at more than thirty leading schools, including Marlborough, Wellington, Eton, Charterhouse, and St Swithun’s, across day, boarding, single-sex, and co-educational settings.

My approach is always personal and child-centred. I work closely with parents to understand their preferences and their child’s academic profile, interests, and personality, ensuring senior school recommendations are realistic and well-matched. I believe every family should feel informed, supported, and confident in their decisions, and I take pride in providing clear advice, honest feedback, and practical next steps.

I have experience working with families in the UK and internationally, particularly from China and Spain, and I understand the additional challenges of navigating admissions from overseas. Whether collating supporting documentation, advising on admissions processes, liaising with admissions departments, or preparing children for assessments, my goal is always to ensure the journey is as smooth and positive as possible for both parents and children.
AARON

AARON

I am both a tutor and an education consultant, with a strong background in guiding families through key academic milestones and school/university placements. I hold a Bachelor of Laws from a Russell Group university and am a British Council–certified education consultant and agent. In addition, my experience as a former examiner and marker for AQA gives me a deep understanding of assessment standards and what schools and universities are looking for in applicants.

Over the past six years, I have worked with more than 300 students and families worldwide, providing both academic support and specialist consultancy. My work as an education consultant focuses on helping families secure places at leading independent boarding schools, guiding them through applications from Year 7 entry right through to university admissions. Many of my students have gone on to study at prestigious universities including Oxbridge, Imperial, and LSE.

My approach is professional, structured, and tailored to each family’s unique circumstances. Whether it’s creating a long-term admissions strategy, preparing for entrance exams and interviews, or advising on the best-fit school environment, I aim to give parents clarity and confidence at every step. Above all, I believe with the right guidance and determination, every student can thrive and achieve their potential.

With over 15 years of experience in education, including leadership as Head of a brand new all-through school, I specialise in helping families navigate the important decisions around their child’s schooling. As a qualified SENCO with a deep understanding of curriculum and the EYFS, I am able to match children to schools that will best suit their age, stage, and individual interests. My insight into both academic and pastoral provision enables me to give families a clear, balanced perspective on what different schools can offer.

From the first conversation to the final placement, I guide families through every step of the admissions process. Parents working with me can expect tailored advice, honest communication, and a thoughtful approach that puts their child’s wellbeing and future success at the centre.

My aim is to remove the stress and uncertainty of school selection, ensuring that each family feels supported, informed, and confident in their decision.
