Nikki has been great so far. It has only been a couple of lessons but she has already built up confidence in my daughter, who is in Year 11 and getting ready to pull together her portfolio for Fine Art GCSE.
Nikki sends prep ahead of the each session which is also very thoughtful and really helpful.
Glad I found her !

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is considering the School of Art at Birmingham City University. Can a tutor help with their portfolio?
Absolutely. Many of our Art tutors are practicing artists or have experience with university applications. They can provide expert, one-to-one guidance on creating a standout portfolio that showcases your child's unique skills and meets the specific requirements of competitive courses.
We're in the King Edward VI grammar school system. Can a tutor help my child balance Art with their other demanding subjects?
Yes, this is a common challenge we help with. A tutor can help your child work more efficiently and effectively on their Art projects, freeing up time and reducing stress. They can provide focused support that ensures their creative work complements, rather than competes with, their other academic commitments.
How do I choose the right Art tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read tutor profiles, check their experience, and watch their introductory videos. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals. With over 4,100+ customer reviews rating us 4.6 stars, you can feel confident in finding a great match.
What happens if we don't click with the first Art tutor we try?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. With our First Lesson Guarantee, if you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do online Art lessons actually work?
Our online classroom has all the tools your child needs, including an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. Your child can show their work to their tutor in real-time using a webcam, get instant feedback, and work on digital pieces collaboratively. It's a surprisingly effective and engaging way to learn a practical subject.
How much does an online Art tutor in Birmingham cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or commitments.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced background check. We are very selective, and only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply is accepted onto Tutorful.
How can an Art tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one attention from a supportive mentor can make a huge difference. A tutor helps your child see their own strengths, celebrate their progress, and provides a safe space to ask questions without fear of judgement. This personalised encouragement is often the key to unlocking their confidence.
My child is struggling with a specific A-Level Art project. Can a tutor help with just that?
Yes, definitely. The great thing about one-to-one tuition is its flexibility. You can book a tutor for a few sessions to help your child overcome a specific hurdle, whether it's analysing artists' work for their essay or mastering a new technique for their final piece.
Do you only offer school subjects, or could my child learn something like digital animation?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Many of our Art tutors have specialist skills in areas like digital animation, graphic design, photography, and even music production. It's a great way for your child to explore a new hobby or develop a specific skill.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Sessions are typically one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss your child's needs with your tutor and arrange a session length that works best for them.
Are your tutors background-checked?
You can find and book a tutor very quickly. Many parents are able to arrange their child's first lesson within 24-48 hours. Simply search for your subject, filter by availability, and message a tutor to get started.
