Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read tutor profiles, watch their introduction videos, and check reviews from other parents. Many tutors offer a free chat beforehand, which is a great way to discuss your child's needs and see if their personality and teaching style are a good match for your family.
My child attends Harrogate Grammar School, can a tutor support their specific curriculum?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience with the curricula of specific schools. When you search, you can filter for tutors with this experience or mention it during your initial chat to ensure they can provide the targeted support your child needs.
How much does online English tutoring cost in Harrogate?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter by price when you search to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. With 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.
Can a tutor help my child prepare for entry to a local school like Ashville College?
Yes, many of our tutors specialise in entrance exam preparation, including the 11+. You can look for tutors who specifically mention experience with independent school entry to help your child prepare with confidence.
How do online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your own home.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Sometimes, all a child needs is a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A tutor provides that one-to-one attention, celebrating small wins and breaking down tricky topics until they click. This personal support is often the key to unlocking a child's confidence.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced DBS check. We also interview every tutor and only accept 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something new?
We believe in learning for life! Alongside core subjects like English and Maths, our tutors offer a huge range of skills. Your child could learn to play the guitar, get into coding with Python, or even learn a new language.
How is this different from the support my child gets at school?
Teachers in school do an incredible job, but with a class of 30, it's impossible to give everyone individual attention. Tutoring provides that focused, one-to-one time, allowing a tutor to tailor every single lesson to your child's specific needs and pace.
How quickly will we see results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the benefit of one-to-one support is that progress can happen quickly. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. Our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade.
How do I book an English lesson?
It's simple. Just use the search to find tutors you like the look of, send them a message to arrange a time that works for you, and book your first session directly through their profile. You can be messaging a tutor in minutes!
