Arabic tutor Ireland and Wales and surrounding regions.
Need an Arabic tutor for general Arabic lessons, Quranic Arabic or for GCSE Arabic?
Our coverage encompasses the following regions:
United Kingdom (England, Wales, Northern Ireland).
Crown Dependencies & Overseas Territories (e.g., Jersey, Guernsey, Isle of Man, Gibraltar, Bermuda, Cayman Islands).
Whilst we endeavour to reach as many students in varying areas, sometimes this may not be possible due to the follwoing reasons:
Rural and Remote Communities
- These areas frequently lack reliable high-speed internet, which is essential for effective online tutoring. This digital infrastructure gap significantly limits access.
- Even within countries that have growing digital markets, rural populations often remain disconnected, widening educational disparities.
The Least tutor availability tends to occur in:
- Rural or remote regions with weak connectivity.
- Resource-strapped countries like LDCs and landlocked developing nations.
- Economically disadvantaged areas with significant digital inequality.
- Places where sociocultural and regulatory constraints curb online education growth.

- As of mid-2021, the number of children officially registered for home-schooling rose from about 1,500 in early 2020 to 1,786 by June 2021, marking a modest rise amidst a backlog of applications triggered by the pandemic.
- More recently, by early 2022, about 1,808 children were registered as receiving education outside of mainstream schools—an increase of nearly 30% over the previous four years.
- The Irish Times (2022) reported that home-schooling numbers have climbed roughly 25% since the pandemic began, reaching around 1,825 officially registered children—though the actual total could be closer to 4,000, with nearly 2,000 applications pending assessment by Tusla.

Why Is Homeschooling Increasing?
Families cite a variety of reasons:
- Mental health concerns and support for special educational needs (SEND) are increasingly common motivators.
- Some feel mainstream schools fail to meet their children’s emotional or educational needs, leading to homeschooling as a last resort rather than a lifestyle choice.
- The COVID-19 pandemic triggered a shift—many families who experienced home teaching during lockdown found it worked well and chose to continue.
- In Scotland, concerns about classroom violence and declining standards are also key factors.
