Summary
- Family seeks £160,000-a-year tutor for three young children.
- The tutor will travel Europe for a year, acting as an 'education architect'.
- Learning will be integrated with travel, culture, and real-world experiences.
A family based in New York is seeking an "education architect" with a substantial £160,000 annual salary to tutor their three children, aged three, six, and eight, during a year-long trip across Europe. This unique educational role, advertised by British agency Tutors International, emphasizes a "world-schooling" approach where the children's learning is integrated directly with their travel experiences.
The tutor will be responsible for fostering academic mastery in core subjects and languages like German, French, and Mandarin. Learning will be embedded in lived experiences, utilizing cities, landscapes, and museums as the classroom. The position also includes teaching about artificial intelligence, ethics, financial literacy, and law.
Beyond academics, the role encompasses coordinating extracurricular activities such as advanced horseback riding and skiing, alongside practical skills like farming and survival techniques. This reflects a growing trend among globally mobile families to design education around lifestyle. The agency founder noted an increasing demand for educators who can shape how children engage with the world.
This situation follows a similar high-profile advert from the same agency, which sought a £180,000-a-year tutor for a one-year-old, aiming to prepare the child for prestigious British boarding schools.
