Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child hopes to study at the University of Leicester. Can a tutor help them prepare?

Absolutely. Many of our English As A Foreign Language tutors have experience helping students prepare for university-level study. They can help your child with the specific academic English skills needed for higher education, from writing essays to understanding complex course materials.

How can tutoring help my child feel more integrated into the Leicester community?

Confidence is key to social integration. Our tutors create a safe space for your child to practise their conversational English without fear of making mistakes. This practice can make a huge difference in their confidence when talking to teachers and making new friends in and out of school.

How do I choose the right English As A Foreign Language tutor for my child?

You can view detailed tutor profiles which include their experience, qualifications, and an introductory video. We also show reviews from other parents, which can be really helpful. Our 4.6-star rating from over 4,100+ reviews shows how much parents trust our tutors. We recommend messaging a few to find the best personality fit for your child.

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

We know that the right relationship is essential for learning. 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 an EFL tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, and you can easily filter your search by price to find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check and has been personally vetted by our education team. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking English?

One-to-one lessons provide a supportive, pressure-free environment for your child to practise speaking. Tutors use encouragement and positive feedback to help your child feel more comfortable, correcting mistakes gently and building their self-belief one conversation at a time.

What happens in a typical online EFL lesson?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat and an interactive whiteboard. A tutor might use the whiteboard to break down grammar rules, share helpful resources, or work on a piece of writing with your child in real-time. Each session is tailored to your child's specific goals.

How long does it take to see progress?

Every child learns at their own pace, but the benefit of one-to-one tutoring is that it focuses directly on their needs, which often leads to faster progress. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions.

Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can you help with hobbies?

While we help thousands of students with academic subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills! So if your child wants to learn guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language for fun, we can help with that too.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. Your tutor will provide feedback after each lesson to let you know how your child is getting on and what they've been working on. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's progress and goals.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking English?

Once you've found a tutor you like, you can book a first lesson directly from their profile. Our simple scheduling system makes it easy to find a time that works for your family. Many tutors offer a discounted rate or a free 15-minute chat for the first session.
