Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is really struggling with the critical essays for Higher English. Can an online tutor really help with that?

Absolutely. This is one of the most common areas we help students with. An online tutor can work one-to-one with your child, breaking down essay structures, strengthening their arguments, and helping them analyse texts with greater depth. The focused, personal feedback they receive can make a huge difference to both their grades and their confidence.

With schools like The Glasgow Academy setting such a high bar, can a tutor help my child keep up?

Yes, we understand the pressure. A tutor provides a supportive space away from the classroom where your child can ask questions they might be hesitant to ask in front of peers. They can go over topics at your child's pace, reinforcing what’s learnt at school and building a solid foundation to not just keep up, but to feel confident and ahead of the curve.

We're aiming for a competitive course at the University of Glasgow. Can tutoring support this specific goal?

Definitely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students prepare for university applications. They can focus on achieving the specific Higher English grades needed for entry, as well as helping to develop the critical thinking and writing skills that admissions tutors at top universities like Glasgow and Strathclyde look for.

Is online tutoring as effective as meeting someone in person?

We find it’s even more effective for many families. Online tutoring offers total convenience from your Glasgow home and gives your child access to a much wider pool of specialist tutors from across the UK. With interactive whiteboards and resource sharing, lessons are just as engaging, and 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.

What if my child doesn't click with the first tutor we try?

Finding the right personality match is so important, and we want you to be completely happy. If you don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How do you ensure your tutors are qualified and safe to work with my child?

Your child's safety and quality of education are our top priorities. Every tutor is background-checked and must pass a rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from a true, vetted expert.

My other child needs help with maths. Do you offer tutoring for other subjects?

We do! We have expert online tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core academics like maths, chemistry and history to music, coding, and languages. You can find the right support for your whole family on our platform.

How much do online English Language lessons for a student in Glasgow cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £25 per hour. You can filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts. You simply pay as you go for the lessons you book.

What technology do we need for online lessons?

It's very straightforward. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our custom-built online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.

How flexible is the scheduling? My child has a lot of after-school commitments.

That's a key benefit of online tutoring. You can schedule lessons at times that suit your family, whether that's evenings, weekends, or during school holidays. Because you're not limited to tutors in your immediate area, you have a much wider choice of available time slots.

How do we find the right English Language tutor for our child?

You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience, such as preparing for Scottish Highers. You can also read reviews from other parents and watch tutors' introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style before you even send a message.

How will I know if my child is actually making progress?

Tutors provide regular feedback, and you can message them at any time to discuss your child's development. The biggest indicator, though, is often a change in your child's attitude – when you see them feeling more confident, less stressed about homework, and more engaged in their learning.
