Our Story
You can’t do it
alone.
Tao is named after our mother, the person who made everything possible. She raised Leo and Emily single-handedly, supporting them both on their journey to study Physics and Medicine at the University of Oxford. Every tutor who believed in them, every late-night session, every small breakthrough: none of it happened in isolation. It happened because the right people showed up.
Getting into Oxford, or any world-class institution, takes hard work. But hard work alone is rarely enough. What actually makes the difference is having someone in your corner: someone who understands you, believes in you, and knows exactly how to help. That is the spirit Tao is built on, and why we stay involved from the very first call.

The Process
Three steps to the
right tutor.
01
Tell us about your student
A short, no-obligation conversation about your child's goals, learning style, subjects, and schedule. The more context you give us, the better the match.
02
We find the right fit
We search our vetted network for tutors with the right academic background, teaching experience, and personality. Sometimes that takes a day. Sometimes a week. We don't rush it.
03
Learning begins
Your tutor gets in touch and schedules the first session. We check in after each of the first three sessions and stay available throughout to adjust if needed.
No obligation. We’ll respond within 24 hours.

Testimonials
What families
say.
Results speak for themselves. But so do the people behind them.
“We tried two other agencies before Tao. The difference was immediate. Not just in our daughter's grades but in how she felt about studying. She actually looks forward to her sessions now.”
Sarah M.
Parent, Year 10, English & History
“My tutor had me sorted for Oxbridge applications in a way my school simply didn't have the bandwidth to do. I got into St John's to read Law. I genuinely think Tao made the difference.”
Thomas W.
Student, Oxbridge Admissions
“After a rough set of mock results, we were worried. Within six weeks our son had rebuilt his confidence and was on track for his target grades. The matching process is exceptional.”
