Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Are your English Language tutors based in Hertfordshire?

Our tutors are based all across the UK, not specifically in Hertfordshire. This is the great advantage of online tutoring! It means your child can connect with a subject specialist from anywhere, giving you a much wider choice of experts than if you were limited to your local area. All lessons are held online via our secure video platform.

Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for English Language?

Absolutely. Many parents find it's even more effective. Our online classroom has interactive tools like a shared whiteboard, which is perfect for collaboratively analysing texts or planning essays. Plus, the convenience of learning from home in Hertfordshire means your child is often more relaxed and focused, without the stress of travel.

What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?

We know that the right connection is key to great learning. If the first session isn't a perfect fit, please don't worry. Just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor. We're here to help you find the absolute best match for your child.

My child's school in Hertfordshire has a specific approach to English. Can a tutor adapt to that?

Yes, completely. Our tutors are experienced in tailoring their teaching to complement what your child is learning at school. During your first chat, you can discuss the school's curriculum, specific exam boards (like AQA or Edexcel), and any particular areas of focus, ensuring the tutoring provides seamless support.

Can a tutor help my child prepare for the 11+ or selective school entrance exams in Hertfordshire?

Many of our tutors are highly experienced in preparing students for entrance exams, including the verbal and non-verbal reasoning components often found in the 11+ and other selective school tests common in Hertfordshire. You can filter for tutors with this specific experience when you search.

How much do online English Language tutors for Hertfordshire students cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, which typically range from £25 to £50 per hour, depending on their experience and level of expertise (e.g., GCSE, A-Level, or degree level). You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.

Are your tutors qualified to teach English Language?

Yes. We have a rigorous selection process and accept only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Many are qualified teachers, while others are subject matter experts with degrees in English Literature or Language. All tutors are background-checked, and you can view their full qualifications and experience on their profiles.

Beyond exam English, do you offer tutoring for other skills like creative writing?

We do! We have tutors who specialise in a huge range of areas beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to explore creative writing, learn public speaking skills, or even start a blog, you can find a specialist tutor to help them pursue their passion.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback to both you and your child. They'll discuss progress within the lessons, and you can message them anytime through our platform. Seeing your child's confidence grow and their school reports improve are often the clearest signs of success.

What technology do we need for online lessons?

It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our entire learning platform runs in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without being overwhelming. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child's concentration and your family's schedule.

Can a tutor help my child connect their studies to Hertfordshire's literary history?

That's a fantastic way to engage them! Many tutors love to make learning relevant. You could certainly find a tutor who would be excited to incorporate the local heritage, perhaps by exploring the work of authors like George Orwell or E. M. Forster who had strong connections to Hertfordshire.
