Why a Confident Start in Secondary School Matters for Your Child
The transition to secondary school is a big step, and ensuring your child feels academically ready is key. A strong start in S1, where they grasp new concepts in subjects like algebra in Maths or essay structures in English, can significantly influence their confidence and performance through to their National 5s and Highers. Building these foundational skills early means they’re better equipped for future pathways, whether that's continuing their education at Fife College or pursuing a university degree. It’s about setting them up for long-term success, not just for the first term.

Greg B
Greg is a fantastic tutor, he makes the lessons fun and is very patient.
Greg was very thorough and thoughtful in his prep and feedback for each lesson provided. He gave us regular updates post each class regarding what was covered and progress on the topic and was very flexible and a total pleasure.
Greg has successfully tutored my son through the 11+ exams and my son looked forward to his sessions with Greg each week. I can’t recommend Greg enough!

Lucie M
Lucie has been working with my son for four months on his 11+ Verbal and Non-verbal Reasoning, and I'm really impressed. She’s very patient and genuinely involved in the lessons. Lucie managed to build a great connection with my son right from the start. Her subject knowledge is excellent, and she explains things clearly without ever making him feel rushed.
My son made solid progress and grew much more confident. I’d happily recommend Lucie to anyone looking for a kind, reliable and effective tutor.

Christina V
We had a great experience with Christine. She made my nervous and shy daughter feel at ease immediately (we'd already tried a few other tutors).
Chris focused on what we asked for her focus on initially, but then moved on to different subjects when she saw my daughter was progressing well. Each session felt tailored to her learning needs.
My daughter excelled in her 11plug and won places in 2 top schools. We can't recommend Chris enough.

My son was also using the online platform Atom to practice and prepare. Will was particularly good at using the feedback and analytics provided by Atom to create a personalised curriculum that was fully focussed on what my son needed to do to increase his chances of success.
My son enjoyed working with Will and found him calm, clear and structured. Thank you Will!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is moving from Kirkcaldy North Primary to Kirkcaldy High. Can an Eleven Plus 11+ tutor help with this transition?
Absolutely. While the Eleven Plus exam isn't a local requirement, our tutors understand the academic demands of starting secondary school. They can help your child build core skills in Maths and English, develop study techniques, and boost their confidence to ensure a smooth and successful transition to schools like Kirkcaldy High or Balwearie High.
We're worried about S1 at Balwearie High impacting future National 5s. How can tutoring help?
It’s a valid concern, and a strong start in S1 is crucial. An online tutor can provide targeted support to solidify foundational knowledge, tackle new subjects like algebra or scientific concepts, and develop the critical thinking skills needed for National 5 and Higher qualifications. This early support can set your child up for long-term academic success.
Can a tutor help my child prepare for future education at Fife College or university?
Yes, absolutely. The skills your child develops with a tutor, from strong academic foundations to improved confidence and study habits, are invaluable for any future educational path. Whether they aspire to Fife College or university, a tutor can help them build the robust academic toolkit needed to achieve those goals.
What if my child doesn't get on with their Eleven Plus 11+ tutor?
We want you and your child to feel completely comfortable. 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. Your child's learning journey is our priority.
How do I choose the right online tutor for my child?
We make it easy to find the perfect fit. You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and even message tutors directly to discuss your child's specific needs and goals before booking. Our platform shows you their experience, teaching style, and availability.
How much does online tutoring for Eleven Plus 11+ readiness typically cost?
Tutor prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications, but you'll find a range of options to suit your budget. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, and there are no hidden fees. Many tutors also offer a free introductory chat.
How can an online tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring is fantastic for building confidence. Tutors create a supportive, non-judgemental space where your child can ask questions freely, make mistakes, and celebrate small victories. This personalised attention helps them overcome anxieties, master challenging topics, and believe in their own abilities.
Are your online tutors qualified and safe?
Yes, absolutely. We have a rigorous vetting process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor on Tutorful is background-checked, and we verify their qualifications and experience to ensure your child learns from the best and is safe online.
What subjects do your online tutors cover for secondary school preparation?
Our tutors cover a wide range of core subjects essential for secondary school, including Maths, English, and Science. They can help your child grasp new concepts, strengthen existing knowledge, and prepare for the academic demands of S1 and beyond.
How do online lessons work for my child?
Online lessons are incredibly convenient and effective. Your child connects with their tutor in our virtual classroom, which has features like a shared whiteboard, document sharing, and video chat. It’s interactive, engaging, and just like having a tutor in your home, but without the travel.
What kind of improvement can I expect for my child?
We're very proud that 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade. While results vary for each child, our tailored one-to-one approach is designed to help your child make significant progress, build a deeper understanding, and achieve their academic goals.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or music?
While we specialise in academic subjects like Maths and English to help with secondary school readiness, Tutorful also offers a huge range of other subjects and skills! If your child is interested in coding, learning an instrument like guitar, or even a new language, you can find expert tutors for those too.
