Skills Tuition Centre in short
Skills Tuition Centre is a Wellington-based provider teaching children, teens and adults, and the only firm in the round publishing an hourly price list down to the penny [2]. The limited company has been active for several years, and the contact page gives an email address with phone hours across six days [5]. In our view it suits families who compare on price first.
The record shows teaching for children, teens and adults from New Street in Wellington, with a pricing page listing group, one-to-one and A-level hourly figures plus driving-theory lessons alongside. Contact runs through email, WhatsApp and phone hours across six days, and Companies House shows the firm active since twenty twenty-two. Courses span school ages to adult learners rather than a single stage.
What customers say is excellent: five out of five from twenty-one Google reviews on its public listing [6]. That is one of the deepest review bases in the round, and it covers teaching as well as organisation. No other review source was found to set beside it. At twenty-one reviews it sits behind only the top two centres on feedback depth.
What counts against Skills is unstated expertise: no tutor qualifications or accreditations appear anywhere on the site, and no insurance details are published [1] [4]. Our review still places it eighth, carried by transparency and feedback rather than credentials.
Our verdict
Our judgement: Skills suits families who want to see the price list before enquiring, with group and one-to-one rates stated to the penny [2]. A live limited company and long weekly phone hours add substance [3] [5]. It counts against it that tutor qualifications and insurance details are unpublished.

Questions about Skills Tuition Centre
Is Skills Tuition Centre any good?
Is Skills Tuition Centre registered with a trade scheme?
No. Industry qualifications cannot be sourced from the registers, the website or any platform checked, and the site names no tutor credentials [1] [4]. No mandatory register covers private tutors, but the gap still counts. Ask who will teach your child and what sits behind them. No credential is named for any tutor on the site.
What does Skills Tuition Centre charge?
The pricing page lists group hours in the mid-twenties, one-to-one hours in the high thirties and A-level hours higher still, with driving-theory lessons alongside [2]. Ask whether the figure you see includes everything or adds extras on top of lessons. A-level hours and driving-theory lessons sit on the same page.
Where does Skills Tuition Centre work?
From New Street in Wellington, with an email address and phone hours across six days plus WhatsApp routes [3]. Courses cover children, teens and adults [1]. Ask which format fits your child's level and how groups are grouped by age. The stated address is New Street in Wellington, with WhatsApp beside email.
How is Skills Tuition Centre ranked?
Skills sits eighth of the ten ranked firms in our September private-tutor round. We looked first at customer evidence, then teaching credentials, trading history and stated cover, with pricing clarity and website detail counting next. Unstated credentials are what hold it here. It is the transparency pick of the round.
How do I get a quote or arrange a first session with Skills?
Email or phone during the six-day phone hours, or message on WhatsApp, to open the conversation [3]. Rates sit on the pricing page, so ask which format fits your child's level, how groups are set by age, and whether the figure includes everything or adds extras. Confirm the venue, timetable and monthly total in writing before starting.
What do parents' reviews say about Skills?
Excellent: the top Google rating from twenty-one reviews, behind only the top two centres on depth [6]. Feedback covers teaching as well as organisation, which matches the centre's detailed pricing and contact offer. Twenty-one reviews is deep for an independent centre. No other review source was found to set beside the Google listing.
How does Skills compare with the others in this round?
No other firm in the round publishes an hourly price list, which makes it the transparency pick against unpublished rivals. Study Base brings stronger credentials and deeper reviews, and Learning Bubble brings stated teaching qualifications. For families who compare on price first, nothing else in the round shows its figures this plainly.
