Patrick B
Friendly and helpful A-Level Maths and GCSE Science Tutor
I enjoy Mathematics greatly, having studied both Maths and Further Maths at A-Level, also while I was at sixth form I took part in working as a classroom assistant in Year 8 Maths lessons, which gave me valuable experience at teaching students. I took part in another programme which taught the elderly how to be computer literate, these two experiences have given me very different skills to utilise whilst teaching.In my experience as a one-on-one tutor I have usually found my best strategy is to utilise examples, both ones I work through myself and others I assist my students in working through,...

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!

Nigel Q
My 15-year-old son is working through the GCSE Spanish with Nigel. I am very relieved to have found such a good teacher. He is clear and thorough, and he encourages him throughout the lessons. It is clear that Nigel knows the syllabus well and is an experienced teacher, which in my opinion is very important for the exams. Most importantly, my son enjoys the lessons and thinks Nigel is an excellent teacher.

Siobhan R
My son has been tutoring with Siobhan for quite a while now and all i can say is how fantastic she has been in guiding him through his mathematics journey!
Her patience, ways of explaining and using visuals to help him understand, the time she takes to get to know how he learns and checking to ensure he fully grasps a concept, are all very commendable!
His confidence has increased and he looks forward to his lessons knowing that Siobhan will be there to support him in a subject that previously he was very anxious about.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE grades they need for The College Merthyr Tydfil?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are GCSE specialists who have a deep understanding of the curriculum. They can work with your child to target specific areas of weakness, build exam technique, and grow their confidence to help them secure the grades needed for their desired A-Level or vocational courses.
My child is hoping to go to the University of South Wales. Can a tutor support their A-Level studies?
Yes. We have a huge range of experienced A-Level tutors who can provide the in-depth subject knowledge needed to excel. They can help your child master complex topics and develop the independent study skills that are essential for succeeding at university and getting the grades for their chosen course.
How do I find the right tutor for my child in Merthyr Tydfil County?
It's simple. Just enter the subject you're looking for and your child's level, and you can browse profiles of our top-rated online tutors. You can read reviews from other parents, compare experience, and even message tutors for free to make sure you've found the perfect fit before booking.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, with prices starting from £15 per hour. The cost depends on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can easily filter by price to find an expert tutor who fits your family's budget.
Are the tutors safe and background-checked?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check and been through a rigorous vetting process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
Confidence is often the biggest barrier to learning. In a one-to-one lesson, your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong. As their tutor helps them understand difficult topics, that feeling of 'I can't do this' starts to disappear, which has a positive impact on their schoolwork and beyond.
Is tutoring just for academic subjects like Maths and English?
Not at all! While we have thousands of tutors for core school subjects, we also believe in learning for life. You can find expert tutors to help your child learn a musical instrument like the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language for fun.
How does online tutoring actually work?
All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents, making it feel just like they're in the same room. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How quickly can we expect to see results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our experience shows that consistent, tailored support makes a real difference. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions, and 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Can we schedule lessons at a time that suits our family?
Yes, flexibility is one of the main benefits of online tutoring. Our tutors offer a wide range of availability, including evenings and weekends, so you can easily find a lesson time that fits around school, clubs, and other family commitments.
What makes Tutorful different from other tutoring services?
We focus on finding the perfect match for your child. With our careful vetting process and reviews from over 4,100 parents, we help you find an expert you can trust. It's why we have a 4.6-star rating and have helped over 200,000 students achieve their goals.
