10 August 2009 - One business that is flourishing during this recession in New Zealand is tutoring. Many graduates, business owners and people who were recently laid off work are turning to tutoring to sustain themselves and their families during these tough times.

Andrew Martin, maths tutor says: “Education is still a vital concern for parents and despite the economy, or perhaps because of it, parents simply won’t compromise on providing for their child’s educational needs.”

Many tutors have signed up since we opened our doors in February 2009, and many students and parents have been matched successfully to a quality tutor. This proves that tutoring is recession proof and our expansion corroborates the fact that parents and students have responded to First Tutors as having the high standards they expect in tutors. There is nothing quite like First Tutors in New Zealand.

First Tutors bring individual styles of tutoring and approaches to teaching which, combined with our teaching experience gives us the edge over competitors.

Ben Fraser, another tutor and recent graduate says: "In my opinion, First Tutors is the best online tutoring website in New Zealand. I am able to build up my profile through students' feedbacks, and gradually build up my tutoring career. My Profile Page is an advertisement that can reach anybody who has the internet. I've had absolutely no problems with using First Tutors and I highly recommend this site to anyone who is serious about tutoring or finding a tutor."
