Personalised Support, Designed Around Your Child
For parents new to tutoring, the idea of finding the perfect match can feel overwhelming. You don’t need to become an expert in tutor selection; we handle that. Tell us about your child – their strengths, their challenges, and what they need – and we thoughtfully match them with a tutor. This isn’t a random pick; it’s a considered recommendation designed to find someone who doesn't just know their subject, but also knows how to connect and build confidence.
Forget imagining just another video call. Tutorful’s interactive online classroom is purpose-built for learning. Your child and their tutor work together on a shared whiteboard, solving problems in real-time with annotation tools to highlight and explain. Every session is recorded, meaning they can revisit tricky concepts before an exam, ensuring every lesson is active, engaging, and genuinely collaborative.
Learning online means your child in Torbay can access the very best tutors from across the UK, without any travel or disruption to your family’s busy schedule. Sessions fit around school, sports, and family life – whenever works best for you. And if that first tutor isn't quite the right fit, we’ll happily cover the cost of a new first session, because finding that connection is what truly matters.

Kate is a lovely tutor. She explains things so well and helps by going through past papers. She has helped me from being on very low grades in year 12 to an A and A star at the end of year 12, and helping me to maintain this through year 13. Would really recommend Kate to anyone.

I had an amazing experience with Eman as my a level biology tutor, will always recommend her to anyone!! She supported me throughout my A-level Biology revision and made such a huge difference to both my understanding and confidence.
Her lessons were always tailored to what i needed support with the most and clearly explained areas I previously struggled with. I truly appreciated her encouragement and support and how she created a comfortable learning environment where i felt comfortable to ask even the simplest questions. She really boosted my confidence and understanding before my exams. Thanks so much Emann!!!!

Jon P
Jon has vast knowledge of Physics, friendly, approachable, pays attention to the person he is tutoring and can adapt to changes. He has been tutoring my daughter which has helped her confidence in A level Physics. Jon is a brilliant physics tutor as she was able to pick up my daughter’s weaknesses in a topic which they tackled together to help my daughter have a crystal understanding of the topic which increased her confidence in the topic. Jon is good at his job and a Physics teacher you can bet on. I highly recommend him.

Lesley H
We cannot recommend Lesley highly enough. From the very beginning, she built a wonderful rapport with our daughter and helped her develop both her English skills and, just as importantly, her confidence. Her lessons were engaging, supportive and tailored to our daughter's needs, making a real difference to her progress.
Our daughter was delighted with her exam results, and we genuinely believe that Lesley's teaching played a significant part in this success. Her ability to explain concepts clearly, encourage independent thinking and create a positive learning environment has been invaluable.
We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Lesley and are so grateful for the time, effort and dedication she has invested in helping our daughter achieve her potential. We would not hesitate to recommend her to other families looking for an outstanding English tutor.
