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.
My main goal is for my child to speak with their grandparents. Can a tutor focus on conversational Cantonese?
Absolutely. This is a very common goal for families, and our tutors are brilliant at creating lessons that focus on practical, conversational skills. Just mention this to your chosen tutor, and they will tailor their approach to help your child feel more confident chatting with family.
Are the tutors familiar with the needs of families in Glasgow?
While our tutors are based all across the UK, many have a deep understanding of the cultural importance of heritage languages for families in diverse cities like Glasgow. You can read tutor profiles and message them before booking to find someone who is the perfect cultural and educational fit for your child.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first choice, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Do you only offer language and academic tutoring?
Not at all! We believe in learning for life. Alongside subjects like Cantonese, Maths, and English, you can find expert tutors for hobbies and skills like learning the guitar, coding, or even public speaking.
How do I choose the right Cantonese tutor for my child?
It's simple to find the perfect match. You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, watch their introductory videos, and even send them a message to discuss your child's needs before you book a lesson.
How much do online Cantonese tutors cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience, but they are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts, you simply pay as you go.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and engaging. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, giving your child everything they need for an effective and fun lesson from the comfort of your home.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and thoroughly vetted. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
My child is very shy. How can a tutor help?
One-to-one tutoring is fantastic for shy children. It provides a safe, patient, and encouraging space for them to ask questions and build their confidence without the pressure of a full classroom. Tutors are experts at bringing out the best in quieter children.
Do I have to commit to a certain number of lessons?
No, there are no long-term commitments or contracts. You can book lessons week-by-week or book a block if you prefer. It's completely flexible to fit around your family's needs.
How long is a typical lesson?
Most lessons are one hour long, which we find is perfect for keeping students engaged. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor if your child would benefit from something shorter or longer.
How do the online lessons work?
You can get started very quickly. Simply search for a tutor, send them a message to check their availability, and book your first lesson. Many of our 200,000+ happy students have been able to start their lessons within 48 hours.
