About Ludo Tutors

Our Story

Ludo Tutors was established in London, 2017.

We believe that no child’s potential should be capped and that all children deserve to be seen, heard and supported in a nurturing environment. Our aim is to provide high quality, security-checked and experienced UK Tutors for children and their families around the world.

When Martha, our Founder, started running 11+ courses and support groups for parents in 2018, she saw an opportunity to run online classes for her students’ friends and family around the world.

Ludo Tutors partnered with an educational publisher and launched its first online courses in 2018 for students in the UK, China and Hong Kong.

We have since grown to a team of over 160 Tutors, becoming an approved Online LAMDA Exam (Drama and Public Speaking) Centre and moved into new countries.
