Pricing
Two tracks: human tutoring is pay-per-session (no subscription), roughly £15-£75/session depending on tutor experience tier, charged 24 hours before each session with a free trial session included; the separate Emma AI tutor is subscription-based with a 5-day free trial then Pro (£29/month) or Premium (£45/month) plans.
Edumentors is an online tutoring company built around 'role model tutoring': pairing students with current students or graduates from Russell Group universities such as Oxford and Cambridge, who are vetted through interviews with educational experts and verification of academic credentials before appearing on the platform. Parents browse tutor profiles and book a free 15-minute trial session before committing to paid, pay-per-session lessons across 60+ subjects, spanning Early Years, 11+, KS3, GCSE, IGCSE, IB and A-Level for students aged 4-19. Payments run through Stripe, are charged per session (with bulk-booking discounts available), and no subscription is required for human tutoring. Alongside the tutor marketplace, Edumentors has built Emma, a separate AI tutoring product it describes as 'the world's first fully interactive live AI tutor.' Emma offers adaptive, real-time instruction, an initial skills assessment, an 'Interactive Study Map' that tracks topics and checkpoints, weekly progress reports for parents, and a choice of three AI tutor personas (Emma, Rivo, Tami). A related AI-powered GCSE paper-marking tool lets students submit exam papers for instant, personalised feedback. The company states its marketplace operates across 11+ countries.
