About Small Radish Tutoring

Small Radish Tutoring was founded in Cambridge by Roberta, an Italian-British entrepreneur with a US MBA who speaks five languages. We are not an agency. We are a collective of dedicated, highly qualified tutors who chose to work together, selected for their subject knowledge and teaching ability, not simply their availability.

Our name

Our name comes from Roberta's Chinese nickname, Xiao Luobo, which means small radish. A radish is a humble vegetable, but it grows steadily, given the right conditions. That is how we think about learning: progress is rarely dramatic, but with consistent care it builds into something substantial.

Our approach

We work with a select number of students, so every learner is matched with a tutor who fits their subject, level and way of learning. Sessions are shaped around the individual, not a fixed programme.

Based in Cambridge, we teach students across the UK and internationally, online. Our approach is personal, considered, and built to last, one step at a time.

Our commitment to the environment

We are proud supporters of Abyss Cleanup, a non-profit organisation dedicated to identifying, locating and removing marine litter. Roberta has volunteered with Abyss Cleanup since its very beginning. Abyss Cleanup members get 10% off any of our services. Become a member today and help protect our seas.
