I would highly recommend Annie as a cantonese tutor. The lessons are well planned and really well structured. She always goes at my pace and checks understanding before we move to another topic. The lessons always centre around topics relevant to me and what I need to learn. She’s also a lovely tutor.

Eva W
Eva is an amazing tutor. I would not hesitate to recommend her. She is very knowledgeable, punctual, friendly and informative. It is apparent from the first lesson that the effort she puts in to teaching, creating lessons and homework is second to non. Eva is always happy to help to break down things you may need a little more help with and is always willing to helpfully and thoroughly answer any questions you may have. I feel like I made so much more progress in a short space of time through weekly lessons with Eva - than I ever did in the years of self teaching previous to finding Eva through Tutorful. Highly recommend.

Brilliant Cantonese 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.
We're part of the Hong Kong community in Portsmouth. Can a tutor help my child feel more confident speaking Cantonese with family?
Absolutely. This is one of the most common reasons families seek a Cantonese tutor. Our tutors can create a relaxed, encouraging environment for your child to practise their conversational skills, helping them feel much more confident chatting with grandparents and relatives.
My child attends school in Portsmouth. Can the tutor tailor lessons to fit around their UK school timetable?
Yes, definitely. The beauty of online tutoring is its flexibility. You can view each tutor's availability on their profile and schedule sessions at times that work for your family, whether it's after school, on weekends, or during school holidays.
How do I choose the right Cantonese tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's experience on their profile. We recommend messaging a few to find someone your child will get on with. It's all about finding the right personality fit for your child.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed a background check before they can teach on our platform. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How much do online Cantonese lessons cost?
Prices vary as tutors set their own rates based on their experience. You can see the price per hour clearly on each tutor's profile, allowing you to find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees.
How do the online lessons work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
My child is quite shy. How can a tutor help them?
One-to-one tutoring is a great way to help a shy child build confidence. The lessons provide a safe, private space where they don't have to worry about making mistakes in front of a class. The tutor can focus entirely on their needs and celebrate their progress.
Can a tutor help with both spoken and written Cantonese?
Yes, absolutely. Tutors can tailor their lessons to focus on exactly what your child needs, whether that's improving their conversational fluency, learning to read and write characters, or a bit of both.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss their progress and goals. Often, the clearest sign is seeing your child's own confidence grow as they start to use the language more freely.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! So while we're here to help with core subjects, your child can also learn practical skills like coding or a musical instrument like the guitar or piano, all with expert, one-to-one support.
How do the online lessons work?
Most lessons are an hour long, which gives enough time to cover a topic properly without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different lesson lengths by discussing it directly with your chosen tutor.
