Find Top Tutor Marketing Platforms

I run a Physics tutoring service aimed squarely at school students and their parents, the service is not 1:1 or face to face. It is high end, online group tutoring with a premium price tag. I will start at a lower price point, but need to attract clients that will pay a premium for results for their children. The clients will initially be able to attend sessions outside of UK school time (I still teach), but will look to expand reach as I am able to leave the classroom. Up to now I have posted mostly on Facebook and Instagram, but I am not convinced I am posting to the right places and I just need solid data to uncover those places. Up until now, I have had no real luck with my posting.

Your task is to conduct focused social-media research and tell me exactly where my next clients are already gathering online. I’m looking for evidence-based recommendations that go beyond “post everywhere.” Show me the specific Facebook Groups, Instagram hashtags, TikTok niches, parenting forums, or any other channels where parents actively look for academic help. Include posting times if certain communities peak at predictable hours, and note any content angles (short explainer reels, success-story carousels, homework-tip threads, etc.) that perform best in those spaces.

Deliverables
• A concise report (Google Doc or PDF) mapping 8-12 high-potential channels or communities, each with member count, engagement indicators, and why it suits Physics tutoring for school-age learners
• Suggested posting cadence and optimal time windows per platform
• A short list of proven hashtag sets or keyword themes to boost discoverability
• Any platform-specific insights (e.g., TikTok trend formats or Facebook Group rules) that will help me hit the ground running

Acceptance criteria: every recommendation is backed by metrics—follower count, average interaction rate, or recent post performance—so I can prioritize my outreach confidently.
