Tutoring model and methodology

Kassoom structures its offering around four principles: live one-to-one online tutoring, permanent matching with the right tutor, lessons designed according to the student's needs, and a completely free first lesson. Each student stays with the same tutor per subject to support continuity. The company maintains that its tutors quickly identify learning gaps and teach what the student needs, whether to catch up, keep up or get ahead. The method includes personalised lesson plans and adapted past exam questions.

Free first session and sign-up process

The starting process consists of three steps: booking a free lesson by indicating subject, year group and availability; receiving the assignment of a suitable tutor; and taking the first one-to-one online session with no obligation to continue. The company notes that no credit card is required and that it responds within two hours. The free session includes a live lesson with a real tutor, a diagnosis of learning gaps and a proposed set of next steps. Kassoom also mentions a good-fit guarantee: if the tutor is not the right one, it helps arrange a change without questions.

Student profile and cited results

The company shows examples of students with outstanding GCSE and A-Level grades, such as Grade 9 in Maths, English and English Literature, and A* in Maths, English and Further Maths. It also mentions scholarships at the University of Oxford, the University of Cambridge, Imperial College London, University College London (UCL) and the University of Edinburgh. These references appear in the analysed material as examples of results, not as a promise of equivalent results.
