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 live in Cardiff, but my child's grandparents are in Hong Kong. Can a tutor help bridge that communication gap?
Absolutely. This is a very common goal for families we help. A tutor can focus lessons on conversational skills, common phrases used with family, and cultural etiquette. They can help your child prepare for video calls or visits, making those conversations with grandparents more natural and meaningful.
My family is in Cardiff - how can an online tutor help my child connect with their local heritage?
While our tutors are online, they can equip your child with the confidence and language skills to engage more fully with local community events and cultural activities in Cardiff. By practising conversation, they'll feel more prepared and excited to connect with other Cantonese speakers in your area.
What if my child doesn't click with their first Cantonese tutor?
Finding the right personality match is so important, and we want you to be completely happy. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your 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.
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 sending messages to a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. This helps you get a feel for their teaching style and find the perfect fit.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident speaking Cantonese?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe, supportive space for your child to practise speaking without any fear of making mistakes. Tutors use encouragement and positive feedback to build self-esteem, focusing on conversation and pronunciation in a way that feels fun and natural.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has a valid DBS background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, ensuring you get the highest quality teaching.
How much do online Cantonese tutors cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
How does online tutoring work? What do we need?
All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools to make learning engaging and effective.
How long are the lessons and how often should we have them?
Most lessons are an hour long, but you can arrange different lengths with your tutor. We generally find that one session a week is a great starting point for consistent progress, but you can schedule lessons as often as you need, fitting them around your family's life.
Can a tutor help my child with both spoken and written Cantonese?
Yes, definitely. You can let the tutor know what you want to focus on. They can create a balanced plan to improve conversational fluency, listening skills, and also teach reading and writing characters, depending on your child's goals.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child also learn something like guitar or coding?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core school curriculum! You can find expert tutors for hobbies and skills like learning guitar, piano, coding, and even public speaking. It's a great way for your child to explore new interests.
