Tutoring a baby to make them an 'English gentleman' - Is it worth the money?
Published: 11/10/2025

An anonymous family in London is hiring a £180k-a-year tutor to mold their one-year-old into an "English gentleman." Tutors International is assisting in the search for a tutor who must impart Britishness, including Received Pronunciation, to the child from a young age. While some question the approach as idealistic, the family believes starting early will prevent the child from adopting international cultural biases. This unconventional investment in early education has sparked a debate about privilege, education, and cultural identity.
