Being in the profession for this long, Iam here to help your child's science education, preparing for GCSCs, A-levels and entrance tests to a high school. I love teaching, it is my only profession.

Creative Early Years and Reception tutor
I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities. I am very keen to help pupils to learn and fully understand what they might not get in a classroom environment. Whilst at school and even at university, I had one-on-one help and I would not have got the grades if it was not for this extra help. That is why I want to help those who may need the extra help to get the grades they want.I did my A levels at a school as opposed to a college and this gave me the experience to work with the lower parts of the school (junior and senior). I would help...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is in the Welsh Foundation Phase. Can a tutor help build their phonics and number skills for Year 1?

Absolutely. This is a very common goal for parents. Our tutors are experienced in making learning fun while focusing on the core skills of phonics and numeracy. They can create engaging sessions that complement the play-based approach and ensure your child feels fully prepared and confident for the move into Year 1.

We live in Buckley but are thinking about schools in the Chester area later on. Can a tutor help prepare my child for a more formal learning style?

Yes, they can. A tutor can introduce slightly more structured activities in a gentle, one-to-one setting. This can help ease the transition to a different learning style by building foundational skills and routines, giving your child a head start and making them feel comfortable in any school environment.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We want to make sure it's the perfect fit. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, 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 Early Years tutor for my child?

You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents. Many tutors offer a free 15-minute chat so you can talk about your child's needs and see if it's a good match before booking.

How much does an Early Years and Reception tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary based on their experience. You can easily filter by price when you search to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.

How can a tutor help my child feel more confident at school?

Confidence comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling shy. Tutors celebrate small wins and tailor activities to your child's pace, which helps them feel capable and positive about learning.

How do online lessons for young children work?

Our online classroom is designed to be interactive and engaging for young learners. Tutors use tools like an interactive whiteboard, fun games, and screen sharing to make learning feel like play. All your child needs is a computer or tablet and an internet connection.

How do you make sure the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every 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 learning from the best.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message them anytime through the platform to discuss progress and ask questions. It's a partnership between you, your child, and the tutor.

How long are the tutoring sessions for a young child?

For younger children, sessions are often shorter to keep them engaged – typically between 30 and 45 minutes. However, you can discuss the ideal length with your tutor to find what works best for your child's concentration.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with things like learning an instrument?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum! While we have experts in Maths and English, you can also find brilliant tutors for music, languages, coding, and much more. It's a great way to explore your child's interests.

How effective is tutoring with Tutorful?
