Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to attend a demanding school like Fulford. Can a tutor help them prepare?

Yes, absolutely. Our tutors can help your child build the specific academic English skills and vocabulary needed to keep pace and thrive in a high-performing school environment. They can work on everything from essay writing to classroom comprehension, giving your child the confidence to fully participate.

We're new to York. Can a tutor help my child understand the UK curriculum as well as the language?

Definitely. Many of our tutors are experienced teachers who have a deep understanding of the UK curriculum. They can help your child get to grips with new subjects and different ways of learning, providing invaluable support as they adjust to their new school in York.

How do I find the right English as a Foreign Language tutor for my child?

It's simple. You can use our search filters to find tutors with the right experience, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality. You can also message tutors before booking to ensure they're a great fit for your child's needs.

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

We know that the right connection is key to learning. That's why we have a 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 online EFL tutor cost in York?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an experienced tutor who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden costs or complicated fees.

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

One-to-one lessons provide a safe and encouraging space for your child to practise speaking without the fear of making mistakes in front of a whole class. Tutors use conversation and targeted exercises to gently build fluency and confidence, which can make a huge difference to their social integration.

Are your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed a background check before they can teach on our platform. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How does online tutoring work?

All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your own home.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like guitar or coding too?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play an instrument, get to grips with a coding language like Python, or develop any other hobby, you can find a specialist tutor to help them.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely up to you. You can discuss what's best for your child's goals with your chosen tutor.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. Our tutors provide feedback after each session 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.

Are your tutors background-checked?

With over 4,100 customer reviews and an average rating of 4.6 stars, we've helped over 200,000 students find the support they need. Our focus is on providing high-quality, personalised, and safe online tutoring that helps your child build confidence and achieve their goals.
