Ann has been an incredible help in supporting my daughter in her A Level portfolios. She is engaging and encouraging in her approach, gives very clear instructions and is extremely knowledgeable about the exam board’s requirements. Ann is very personable and flexible with her time, happily discussing ideas to improve my daughter’s art portfolios. An excellent art teacher, I would not hesitate to recommend Ann as an A Level Art tutor.

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 !

Brilliant Art tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child wants to apply to a top London art university like UAL or Goldsmiths. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our Art tutors are graduates from these top universities themselves or have extensive experience helping students prepare successful applications. They can provide expert guidance on building a portfolio that meets the specific requirements and high standards of institutions like UAL, Goldsmiths, and the Slade.
With the strong grammar school focus in Southend-on-Sea, how can a tutor ensure my child's Art A-Level gets the attention it needs?
This is a common concern for parents. A private tutor provides dedicated, one-to-one time that your child might not get in a busy school environment. They can focus entirely on your child's project, helping them develop their ideas, refine their practical skills, and write a compelling artist statement, ensuring their A-Level work is as strong as their other academic subjects.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to find the perfect match 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.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other creative skills?
We offer tutors for a huge range of skills! Alongside academic subjects, your child can learn anything from guitar or piano to coding and digital animation. It's a great way for them to explore new hobbies or deepen existing passions.
How do I choose the right Art tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents. Look for a tutor whose experience matches your child's goals, whether that's GCSE support, A-Level portfolio development, or exploring a new medium. You can also message tutors beforehand to make sure it's a good fit.
How much do online Art tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Rates vary based on the tutor's experience and qualifications. This transparency allows you to find a brilliant, trusted tutor who fits your family's budget.
How can an online tutor help my child build confidence in their art?
Confidence comes from feeling understood and seeing progress. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to experiment, ask questions without feeling judged, and receive positive, constructive feedback. This personalised encouragement is fantastic for building their self-belief.
What technology do we need for online Art lessons?
It's simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom has an interactive whiteboard, making it easy for your child to share their work and get real-time feedback from their tutor.
Are the tutors background checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and they must have a valid DBS check (or equivalent). We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Sessions are typically one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to focus on a specific area. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor to suit your child's needs and schedule.
Can a tutor help with specific techniques like oil painting or digital art?
Definitely. Many of our tutors are practising artists who specialise in particular media. You can use the search filters to find tutors with specific expertise, whether your child needs help with sculpture, photography, graphic design, or traditional painting techniques.
How can an online tutor help my child build confidence in their art?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to both you and your child. You’ll be able to see the improvement in their artwork and confidence. Tutors work with you to set clear goals, so you can easily track their progress against them.
