Everything students need to know about learning with Poddy.
How does Poddy work?
Poddy brings students together in small groups or “pods” for focused, collaborative learning. You choose your subject, level, and when you’re free, and Poddy matches you with two other students and a trusted tutor. It’s simple, affordable, and designed to help you learn with confidence.
What subjects can I learn with Poddy?
We cover a wide range of core subjects, from Maths and English to Science and specialist topics. You can pick the exact area you want to focus on like algebra, essay writing, or exam prep so every session is tailored to what you need most.
How big is a pod?
Each pod has three students who are at a similar level. This small size means you get personal attention from your tutor while still benefiting from working with peers — asking questions, sharing ideas, and supporting each other.

Is group tutoring really as good as 1-to-1?
One-to-one lessons can be really effective for some learners, but we believe small pods offer something special. You still get personal attention from your tutor, but you also benefit from learning alongside peers asking questions, hearing different perspectives, and supporting each other. For many students, this collaborative approach makes learning stick better and feel less isolating. Plus, it’s much more affordable than weekly one-to-one sessions.
Can parents monitor progress?
Yes, Poddy keeps parents in the loop. You’ll get updates on your child’s pod sessions and you can stay in touch with your tutor if you want more detailed feedback. It’s all about building trust and supporting your child’s progress together.
How do I pay for Poddy sessions?
Payments are simple and secure through our trusted payment partners. You pay per session for your pod, and there are no long-term contracts or upfront commitments. You can book more sessions as you go.
