Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We live in Hackney. Can a tutor help my child feel more connected to their Cantonese heritage?

Absolutely. Our tutors understand that language is deeply tied to culture. They can help your child not only with speaking and listening but also by sharing cultural context that makes learning more meaningful and helps them feel more connected to their roots.

With London schools often focusing on Mandarin, how can a tutor help my child feel confident in their Cantonese?

This is a common concern. A one-to-one tutor provides a dedicated space where Cantonese is the priority. They act as a positive role model, building your child's confidence and showing them the value and richness of the language, helping them feel proud to speak it.

How do I choose the right Cantonese tutor for my child?

It's easy to find a great match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's needs. Finding someone your child clicks with is the first step to success.

How much does online Cantonese tutoring cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, starting from £15 per hour. You can filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.

What happens in a typical online lesson?

Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom. Tutors use a range of tools like whiteboards and file sharing to make learning engaging. A session might involve practising conversation, working on characters, or reading stories, all tailored to your child's goals.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you updated on your child's progress. You'll also see it for yourself in their growing confidence and ability to use the language, especially when speaking with family.

Are the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is background-checked and interviewed by our team. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.

Is there a guarantee if we don't like the first lesson?

Yes, we have a First Lesson Guarantee. We're confident you'll find a great tutor, but if you don't get on with your first choice, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How can a tutor help my shy child build confidence?

One-to-one tutoring is perfect for shy children. It provides a safe, patient, and encouraging space where they can practise without the pressure of a big classroom. Tutors are experts at building rapport and celebrating small wins to boost their self-esteem.

How flexible is scheduling?

Very flexible. You can arrange lesson times directly with your chosen tutor, making it easy to fit sessions around school, clubs, and family commitments. Many tutors offer evenings and weekend slots.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Beyond languages and academic support, your child can learn practical skills like coding or music, or even get help with university applications. There's a tutor for almost any goal.

Are the tutors background-checked?

All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no software to download.
