Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We live in Didsbury and are worried about our child being 'school-ready' for a popular primary. Can a tutor help?

Absolutely. We understand the pressure parents feel. Our tutors specialise in making learning fun and engaging for young children, helping them build foundational skills in phonics, numbers, and social interaction. The goal isn't to create pressure, but to nurture their natural curiosity and confidence so they feel happy and prepared for their first day at school.

We're thinking long-term about grammar schools. Does Early Years tutoring really make a difference?

While it's not about 11+ preparation at this stage, building a strong and positive foundation in the Early Years is incredibly valuable. A child who loves learning and feels confident in their abilities from the start is better equipped to thrive throughout their entire school journey, which is the best preparation for any future path.

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 just like you. The key is finding someone your child clicks with. We recommend sending messages to a few tutors to find the perfect personality fit for your little one.

How does online tutoring work for such a young child?

Our tutors are experts at making online learning interactive and fun for young minds. They use a virtual whiteboard, educational games, fun songs, and digital resources to keep your child engaged. Sessions are designed to be playful and active, not just sitting in front of a screen.

How long is a typical online session for a Reception-age child?

For this age group, we find that shorter, more focused sessions of 30-45 minutes work best to keep them engaged and learning effectively. You can discuss the ideal lesson length with your chosen tutor.

Are the tutors experienced with teaching very young children?

Yes, many of our tutors are qualified teachers or have specific experience in Early Years education. You can see their experience and qualifications listed on their profiles. We carefully vet all our tutors, and only 1 in 8 who apply are accepted onto our platform.

How much does Early Years and Reception tutoring cost?

Our tutors set their own prices, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices typically start from £15 an hour, and you can see each tutor's rate clearly on their profile with no hidden costs.

What if we don't get on with our first choice of tutor?

We want to make sure you have the perfect match. That's why we have a 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 will I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. They'll share what they've been working on in sessions and highlight the progress your child is making, giving you peace of mind and a clear understanding of their development.

Can a tutor help my child build confidence as well as academic skills?

Definitely. This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. The praise and personalised attention from a tutor can do wonders for a child's self-esteem, helping them feel more confident in their abilities and more willing to try new things.

What's the benefit of one-to-one tuition over a group class?

With one-to-one tuition, the lesson is completely tailored to your child's needs and pace. The tutor can focus entirely on what your child needs most, whether that's extra help with phonics or a fun challenge with numbers, ensuring they get the specific support they need to shine.

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

We have tutors for over 300 subjects! While we cover all core academic areas, you can also find tutors who can help your child learn skills like playing the guitar, coding, or even speaking a new language through fun, age-appropriate lessons.
