Tutor sought for £180k job to teach baby to become a ‘gentleman’


Adam Caller, CEO and founder of Tutors International, which is assisting the family in their search, said despite initial scepticism, he found the idea “far sighted”, and “progressive”.

When he met the family, he said they appreciated the unusual nature of their request, and how young their son is.

However, they explained that they “didn’t want to wait any longer” to get a tutor, as they had waited until their older child was five, and by that stage “cultural bias had already set in”.

But what does the family mean by “cultural bias”?

It’s “everything”, Adam replied. “The way you eat, the way you speak”.

He said the older sibling had picked “really subtle, non-verbal cues” from the family, and had adopted their cultural ways. The family told Adam they did not want history to repeat itself with their new baby.

The plan: To bring in a British tutor, external, who must speak with Received Pronunciation, to influence the baby right from the beginning.
