Finding a Tutor for City of London School Admissions
We know that every child learns differently, and that's why it's so important that you connect with a tutor that understands your child’s learning style, and has specific experience with the City of London School's admissions process. This means he receives support that is truly personalised, whether he needs to build confidence in verbal reasoning or tackle advanced mathematical concepts.
In one-to-one online tutoring sessions, your son receives the kind of focused attention that's difficult to achieve in a group setting. Tutors can identify and address specific areas that need work, from structuring a compelling essay to developing interview techniques. They can work at your son's pace, building a strong rapport and creating a comfortable environment where he feels confident enough to ask questions and step outside of his comfort zone.
All our tutoring takes place online, allowing your son to learn from the comfort of your own home. Our flexible scheduling fits around school, clubs, and family life, making expert preparation convenient and accessible.

Michelle P
Michele is an excellent tutor. I can’t recommend her enough.
She is super organised and always has a planned lesson. Her lessons are engaging and absolutely tailored to your child’s needs. She always gives feedback after every lesson.
My son has gone from strength to strength under Michelle’s guidance.
Michelle herself is incredibly encouraging, she made my son instantly feel at ease with her, she really made an effort to connect with him. She is full of life and makes her lessons fun.
When our time with Michelle came to an end, my son told me he was really sad and would miss her - I feel that there is no bigger compliment than that!

Amin U
Amin is an excellent tutor. He built a great rapport with my son and his calm and encouraging demeanour helped to instil a new level of confidence.
His lessons are very well structured and he always communicated with me after each lesson providing an update.
My son has improved and fine tuned his maths skills and most importantly he has enjoyed his lessons with Amin.
I have no hesitation recommending Amin.

What happens if we don't get on with our chosen tutor?
We want you to be completely happy. With our First Lesson Guarantee, if you're not satisfied with the first session for any reason, just email support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of the lesson.
My son also needs help with his regular schoolwork. Can we cover other subjects too?
Absolutely, while you might start with an entrance exam specialist, we have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects. You can easily find support for GCSE Science, A-Level History, or any other subject your child is studying.
How do tutors prepare a child for the interview stage?
Our tutors help build confidence and communication skills. They conduct mock interviews, work on articulating thoughts clearly, and help your son discuss his interests and academic passions in a way that shows his genuine curiosity and character.
How are your tutors vetted for school entrance preparation?
We have a rigorous selection process, accepting only 1 in 8 applicants. Tutors are not only subject experts, but also skilled communicators who have been background checked and have direct experience in their specialist subject, such as helping students gain places at top independent schools.
What specific topics do tutors focus on for the exams?
Tutors tailor lessons to the specific exam requirements, typically focusing on advanced English comprehension and creative writing skills, as well as challenging Maths topics like multi-step problem-solving and non-verbal/verbal reasoning.
How long is a typical online session?
Most sessions are one hour long, which we find is optimal for maintaining focus and covering material effectively. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your tutor to suit your son's needs.
How will I track my son's progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to both you and your child. You can discuss progress, areas for improvement, and upcoming goals directly with the tutor through our platform's messaging system.
How much do tutors for City of London School admissions cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget, with no hidden fees.
When is the best time to start preparing for the entrance exams?
This varies for each child, but many parents begin tuition in Year 4 or the start of Year 5 for 10+/11+ entry. This allows enough time to build skills and confidence without rushing.
What do we need for an online lesson?
All you need is a laptop or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no software to download.
