Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We live in Gatley and are thinking about schools like Gatley Primary. Can a tutor help my child feel ready and confident for Reception?

Absolutely. Our Early Years tutors specialise in making learning fun and engaging for young children. They can help your child build a solid foundation in phonics, number recognition, and social skills, so they walk into their new classroom feeling prepared and excited to learn.

The 11+ in Trafford feels a long way off, but can building strong foundations now really make a difference later?

Yes, it really can. A positive and confident start in the Early Years sets the tone for your child's entire school journey. By embedding core skills and a love for learning now, you're helping them build the resilience and knowledge they'll need for future challenges, making the path ahead feel much less daunting.

How do I choose the right Early Years tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. Look for someone whose approach feels right for your child's personality. You can also message tutors beforehand to chat about your child's needs before booking.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 does online tutoring work for young children?

Our online classroom is designed to be interactive and engaging. Tutors use fun activities, digital whiteboards, and educational games to keep young children focused. It's a great way to provide one-to-one attention in a familiar, comfortable environment – your home.

Are your tutors properly checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS background check. 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 much do Early Years and Reception tutors in Gatley cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience, but you can set your own budget and filter your search to find the right tutor for you. There are no hidden fees – you simply pay for the lessons you book.

Can a tutor help my child's confidence, not just their schoolwork?

Definitely. For many children, confidence is the biggest barrier to learning. A private tutor provides a patient and encouraging environment where your child can learn at their own pace, celebrate small wins, and build the self-belief they need to thrive in the classroom.

How long should a lesson be for a young child?

Our tutors are experienced in working with young learners and understand that concentration spans can be short. They typically recommend sessions of 30 to 45 minutes and will tailor the length and pace to keep your child engaged and happy.

What happens in a typical Early Years session?

Sessions are playful and varied. A tutor might start with a fun warm-up game, move on to an interactive activity focusing on a specific skill like letter sounds or counting, and finish with a story. It's all about learning through play in a way that feels positive and encouraging.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something creative like music?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, try their hand at coding, or learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their passions.

How many other families use Tutorful?

You're in good company! We're trusted by thousands of families across the UK, with over 200,000 happy students having used our platform. We also have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 customer reviews.
