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 !

asked questions

Can a tutor help my child build a portfolio for Sheffield Hallam's Institute of Arts?
Absolutely. Many of our Art tutors have experience guiding students through the competitive application process for top UK art schools. They can help your child select their best work, develop new pieces to fill any gaps, and present a distinctive portfolio that stands out.
My child goes to a competitive school like High Storrs. Can a tutor help them keep up and stand out?
Yes. A personal tutor can provide tailored support that complements their schoolwork. They can help your child explore creative ideas in greater depth, push their technical skills further, and build the confidence they need to excel in a competitive academic environment.
How do I choose the right Art tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, check their experience, and see ratings and reviews from other parents just like you. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking to ensure a great match.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the right person for your child. 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 video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and screen sharing. Your child can get live feedback on their work by simply pointing their camera at their sketchbook, or share digital pieces instantly. It's a dynamic and effective way to learn.
How much does an online Art tutor in Sheffield cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can set your own budget and filter your search to find someone who fits. All pricing is shown clearly on each tutor's profile with no hidden costs.
Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and interviewed by our team. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in their art?
Sometimes a little one-to-one encouragement is all it takes. A tutor provides a safe, supportive space for your child to experiment and ask questions without fear of judgement. Celebrating small wins and overcoming challenges together helps build lasting self-belief.
Is this just for school subjects, or could my child learn something like digital illustration?
We offer tutors for a huge range of skills beyond the school curriculum! You can find expert tutors to help your child learn digital illustration, photography, a musical instrument, coding, and much more.

You're in good company! Over 200,000 students have found success with our tutors. We're proud to have over 4,100 customer reviews with an average rating of 4.6 stars.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Most lessons are one hour long, which we find is perfect for keeping students engaged and making good progress. However, you can arrange different session lengths by discussing it directly with your chosen tutor.
Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?
We find that weekly lessons provide the best consistency for building skills and confidence. However, the schedule is completely flexible and up to you. You can book lessons as and when your child needs them, whether it's for regular support or a one-off session before a deadline.
