Seeking a recommendation
For a tutor please for my child who is going into year 5 this September.
Please PM. Thanks.
We try to keep the forum as safe as possible - we don't allow tutors to be openly recommended, because it attracts posts with fake recommendations ('dodgy' advertising solely designed to solicit business on the internet).
It is also not unknown for unscrupulous competitors to 'plant' posts seeking to denigrate the opposition!
Genuine recommendations from forum members by PM only (private message) are permitted - but be aware of the possibility that someone who appears to be a 'helpful parent' offering advice may not be all they seem! There could be an ulterior motive.
Always treat recommendations from unknown persons with great caution.
However, we have many long standing members (check carefully the date of joining and number of posts) who make a very valuable contribution to the forum. If you receive a private recommendation from one of them, it could be worth considering.
Please let us know if you think anyone is abusing the system by soliciting for business or 'spamming'.
It's easy to report a possible problem - just click on the red exclamation mark that appears with every post and PM:

Re: Seeking a recommendation
Hi Coop
Difficult getting recommendations sometimes. Tutors are often found by word of mouth - have you had a chat with other parents locally?
Might also be worth giving a bit more info about which schools you are looking at and what sort of distance you would travel for a tutor - keep an eye on the thread, it has been very nice weather (in some parts of the country) and lots of people have been out and about or are on holiday - hopefully you will get some messages soon
