Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is preparing for the 11+ for Southend High. Can I find a tutor with experience in this?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors have specific experience preparing students for the 11+ exam. You can use our search filters to find tutors who specialise in entrance exams and mention your specific goal of Southend High when you message them to ensure they're the right fit.

Can I find a tutor who understands the curriculum in Southend-on-Sea schools?

While our tutors are based across the UK, many have extensive experience with the national curriculum and the specific exam boards used by schools in the Southend-on-Sea area. The best way to find out is to read their profiles and ask them directly in a message about their familiarity with your child's schoolwork.

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

We know how important the right connection is. 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 do I choose the right English As A Foreign Language tutor for my child?

Start by reading tutor profiles and reviews from other parents. Look for tutors with experience relevant to your child's age and goals, like 11+ or GCSE preparation. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking to find the perfect match.

How much does an English As A Foreign Language tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Each tutor sets their own hourly rate, which is clearly displayed on their profile. This transparency allows you to find a brilliant, experienced tutor who also fits your budget.

How do online lessons work?

Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard for problem-solving, and a space to share documents. It has all the tools your child needs for a productive and engaging one-to-one lesson from home.

How can a tutor help my child feel more confident speaking English?

A one-to-one setting provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to practise speaking without the fear of making mistakes in front of a whole class. Tutors are brilliant at building rapport and gently correcting errors, which helps to build fluency and confidence over time.

Are your tutors qualified to teach English as a Foreign Language?

Yes. We vet every tutor and check their background to ensure they are safe and qualified. Many of our EFL tutors hold specific qualifications like TEFL or CELTA, and you can see all their credentials and experience listed on their profiles.

How often should my child have lessons?

Most families start with one session a week, but the ideal frequency really depends on your child's goals. This is something you can discuss with your tutor, who can recommend a plan that will help your child make steady progress without feeling overwhelmed.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. Because they work so closely with your child, they can spot improvements in understanding and confidence. You can also message your tutor at any time to ask for updates.

Do you only offer academic subjects like English?

Not at all! While we support thousands of students with core subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn to play the guitar, get help with coding in Python, or even learn a new language just for fun.

How can a tutor help my child feel more confident speaking English?

The standard length for a session is one hour, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths with your tutor if needed.
