Is it easy to start tutoring?

It's incredibly simple! In just 5 minutes, you can create your profile and start teaching. A professional photo, a clear description of your qualifications and experience, plus your availability – that's all you need to get started. From Dubai to Abu Dhabi, Sharjah to Al Ain, our platform gives you excellent visibility to attract students at all levels. You can offer online lessons via video call, in-person tutoring at your home, or travel to the student's location. Individual or small group sessions – the choice is yours.

Why become a tutor?

Tutoring allows you to share your knowledge and passion for your subject. It can serve as supplemental income or become your primary career. You set your own rates and schedule freely. Most importantly: Superprof takes no commission – you keep 100% of what you earn. Positive reviews from students boost your reputation and bring more enquiries your way. Every lesson is an opportunity to witness a student's progress thanks to your guidance.

I'm a university student: can I tutor?

Absolutely! University students are highly sought after, especially for school-level subjects. Your age makes communication easier and more relatable for younger learners. Take the example of Ahmed, an Engineering student at UAEU in Al Ain: he tutors Maths and Physics for 4 hours a week and earns around AED 800 per month. IGCSE and SAT preparation are especially popular. If you're studying at AUS, Khalifa University, or any UAE university, your knowledge is valuable to students preparing for their exams.

I'm a qualified teacher: can I give private lessons?

Yes, and it's very common in the UAE. Teachers working in schools often supplement their income through private tutoring. Thousands of educators already use Superprof to teach outside school hours. For example, Sarah, a Science teacher from Dubai, earns an extra AED 3,000 per month through private lessons. Your teaching experience and curriculum expertise – whether British (GCSE, A-Level), American, IB, or MOE – are highly valued by families seeking quality education for their children.

Expert in your field: become a tutor

Are you a music teacher, sports coach, IT professional, chef, or artist? Your skills and experience will quickly attract students. No teaching qualification is required to share your expertise. Omar, a guitarist from JBR, started offering guitar lessons on Superprof and found his first students within a week. Offer lessons at all levels and share your passion with enthusiastic learners.

Example of a great tutoring advert

A compelling advert makes all the difference. Clearly present your background and qualifications. Explain your teaching methodology and what sets you apart. Indicate your availability and lesson formats (in-person, online, home visits).

«MSc in Physics from King's College London, 5 years tutoring experience with GCSE and A-Level students. I specialise in Physics and Maths for British curriculum schools. My approach: building deep understanding through real-world examples, not just exam cramming. Available evenings and weekends, at your home in Dubai Marina/JBR area or online. First lesson free to assess fit!»

Add a video introduction and concrete examples of student improvements – mention grade jumps and exam results. Will you be the tutor of the year?

What subjects can you teach?

Over 2000 subjects await you on Superprof! From school subjects (Maths, Science, English, Arabic, French) to music (piano, guitar, violin), sports (swimming, tennis, football), languages, and professional skills. The platform supports all curricula – British, American, IB, Indian, French, and MOE. Online tutoring lets you reach students anywhere in the UAE and beyond. Whatever your talent, there are students looking for exactly what you can offer.

What do I need to start tutoring?

This is a common question! In the UAE, private tutoring for individuals isn't heavily regulated. You can work as a freelancer – some tutors operate under a freelance visa from free zones, while others work informally alongside their main employment. There's no personal income tax in the UAE, making tutoring financially attractive. Typical rates range from AED 80-250 per hour for primary level, AED 150-350 for secondary, and AED 200-500+ for IB/A-Level specialists and test prep (IELTS, SAT). Most tutors offer the first lesson free as a trial. While platforms like Dubizzle, MyPrivateTutor, or premium agencies exist, Superprof stands out with no commission fees and the widest variety of subjects.

A unique approach for every student

Every student is different, and that's what makes tutoring rewarding. As a private tutor, you build a relationship of trust with your learners. You adapt to their pace and learning style, understanding that students may come from different educational backgrounds and curricula. You contribute to their academic success, whether it's achieving top grades in IGCSEs, securing an excellent SAT score, or passing IELTS with flying colours. Watching a student improve through your support is an incredible experience.
