By building these core skills, we help open doors to their future, whether that's college, university, or the world of work.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We live in Holmfirth and worry about the level of SEN support at local schools. How can an online tutor help?
This is a common concern for many parents. An online tutor provides dedicated, one-to-one support that complements the help your child receives at school. They can focus on specific areas your child finds challenging, build their confidence, and develop learning strategies that are tailored to their individual needs, filling any gaps you feel might exist.
My child attends Holmfirth High. Can a tutor work with their specific school curriculum?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in the UK curriculum and can tailor their sessions to align with what your child is learning at Holmfirth High. This ensures the tutoring is directly relevant and helps them keep up and feel more confident in their classes.
How do I choose the right Autism tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and approach. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking a session to ensure you find the perfect match.
What if my child doesn't connect with their first tutor?
We know that the right connection is key to successful learning. That's why we have 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 can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and must pass a rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is learning from a vetted, high-quality professional.
How do online lessons work for an autistic child?
Our online classroom is designed to be a calm and focused learning environment. Tutors can use features like the interactive whiteboard to make learning visual and engaging. Learning from the comfort of home can also reduce anxiety, allowing your child to focus entirely on the session with their tutor.
Can tutoring help my child with social anxiety related to school?
Yes, it can. A tutor provides a safe, one-to-one space where your child can build confidence without the pressure of a full classroom. By helping them master their schoolwork, they often feel more prepared and less anxious about participating in class.
Is tutoring just for academic subjects, or can it help with life skills too?
It's for both! While many parents seek help with subjects like Maths or English, our tutors can also help your child develop crucial life skills, such as organisation, time management, and effective communication strategies, which are valuable in and out of the classroom.
How much does an Autism tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced tutor who fits your budget.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard session length is one hour, but you can arrange different durations with your tutor. Many parents find that an hour is a great amount of time to cover a topic in detail without it being overwhelming for their child.
How often should my child have lessons?
Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be arranged with your tutor. You can book more sessions during school holidays or in the run-up to exams if needed.
How do I pay for lessons?
Payments are simple and secure. You add your payment details to your account, and we automatically process the payment 24 hours after each lesson is completed. You never have to deal with cash or awkward payment conversations with your tutor.
