Julia Silver
Founder & Innovator
I created Qualified Tutor because that’s what I needed as a young mum tutoring from my kitchen. Years on, and Qualified Tutor and the Love Tutoring is supporting thousands of tutors worldwide to feel safe, skilled and supported.
I could not be more proud of the work we do on our small and mighty team.
My husband Simon and I have the pleasure and privilege of raising five amazing children ranging in age from 6 to 16.
Odette Wohlman
Co-founder & Strategic Partnerships
After a long career in the corporate world, I joined Qualified Tutor in 2022 because I wanted to put my expertise to good use.
As a working mum, with four young children, I believe that bringing certification to tutoring is the right thing to do. It’s obvious: parents and tutors need an easy way to be sure that the tutor they choose is trustworthy.
Raising standards in tutoring together is my way of making the world a better place.

Member Support
I joined the Qualified Tutor team in the middle of 2022 after many years of knowing Julia. I havewhat I call a ‘butterfly mind’. I love taking on new projects and bringing them to life.
Working at QT, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with so many lovely tutors. I love that I get to support them every day.

Founder & Ideas Specialist
My ‘why’ is to contribute to the change that needs to happen in education to make it more nuanced, sustainable and fit-for-purpose.
As a school leader, my passion is for shifting culture by developing the people around me.
I created Qualified Tutor, a much-loved community and training provider, and the Love Tutoring Online Community to provide confidence and connection for tutors. My book ‘Love Tutoring: Turn your Plan B into a Plan A’ is coming soon.

Strategic Partnerships
I joined Qualified Tutor in 2022 to assist the team in creating an impactful and focused space to enable further growth. I love helping the team discover their skills, passions and creativity while ensuring the best processes within the business to continue to support our clients & community.
As a Mum myself, I saw the need that both parents and tutors have to stay connected and know there is a safe, skilled, and supported space for us all to support our children in their development.
Andrea Gadsbey
Education & Courses
Andrea has been in education for twenty years, and has seen a lot of changes in that time! Eighteen of those years have been spent in the classroom teaching English, leading curriculum areas and training teachers.
Andrea first became involved with QT in 2021 and has enjoyed seeing it develop from a supportive community of tutors to the ambitious standard-bearing role it is growing into today. Andrea is passionate about raising academic standards and pedagogy in tuition and is the author of the English Subject qualifications that QT offers for English tutors. Andrea hopes to bring her pedagogical research-led tuition and training to more tutors (along with Bobby dog!).
