Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're hoping for a place at Dilkes Academy. Can a tutor help my child feel prepared for Reception?

Absolutely. Our tutors can help your child build confidence in the core skills for Reception, like phonics, early number recognition, and communication. The goal is to make their transition into a school like Dilkes Academy feel exciting and positive, not daunting.

Are your Early Years tutors familiar with the curriculum used in Thurrock primary schools?

Yes, many of our tutors have experience with the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework used across the UK, including in Thurrock. They can tailor sessions to align with what your child will be learning, giving them a familiar and supportive head start.

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

The best approach is to watch some of the tutors' introduction videos with your child to see who they seem to warm to. You can read reviews from other parents and send messages to a few tutors to ask about their approach to teaching young children. It’s all about finding a great personality match.

How does online tutoring work for such a young child? Will they stay engaged?

Our online classroom is designed to be interactive and fun. Tutors use features like a digital whiteboard, fun games, and colourful resources to keep young children engaged. Sessions are often shorter and packed with varied activities to hold their attention.

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

We know that personal connection is key, especially for young learners. 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 much does Early Years tutoring cost in South Ockendon?

Our tutors set their own prices, so you can find a range of options to suit your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, with no hidden fees, so you can make an informed choice for your family.

How do you make sure your tutors are safe to work with children?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check. We also interview them and verify their ID to ensure we only work with trusted, high-quality professionals. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply.

My child is very shy. How can a tutor help them with their communication skills?

One-to-one tutoring is a wonderful, safe space for a shy child to find their voice. A patient and encouraging tutor can gently build their confidence through storytelling, conversation, and play, helping them feel more comfortable speaking up.

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

For younger children, we often find that shorter sessions of 30 to 45 minutes work best to keep them focused and engaged. However, you can discuss the ideal lesson length with your tutor based on your child's individual needs and concentration span.

What's the difference between tutoring and what my child does at nursery?

Nursery provides a fantastic group learning environment. Tutoring complements this by offering focused, one-to-one attention. If your child needs a little extra help in a specific area, like phonics, a tutor can dedicate the entire session to that, which isn't always possible in a group setting.

Is this just for academic skills, or can you help with creative things like drawing or storytelling too?

It's for everything! We have tutors who can help with core skills like reading and writing, as well as creative pursuits like drawing, music, and storytelling. We believe that nurturing creativity is just as important for a child's development.

How quickly can we get started with a tutor?

You can get started very quickly. Simply search for tutors, send messages to your favourites to check their availability, and you could be booking your first session for this week. It's that straightforward!
