The Good Schools Guide review of Riviera Tutors

A family affair: Luke Sullivan (mid 30s), who graduated in English lit from Bristol, is the founder and main frontman. His wife, Olena – lawyer by training, and a recipient of the State Medal of Ukraine for her ‘outstanding contribution towards youth development’ – supports him with aplomb and takes care of their Russian-speaking families. Luke’s cousin Vanessa Chamberlain (Cambridge history graduate and ex-PWC) heads up accounts, tutoring management and scheduling.
