Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive London sixth form. Can a tutor help them get the required English Language grade?

Absolutely. This is one of the main reasons parents in London come to us. Our tutors are experienced in helping students move from a grade 5 or 6 to the 7, 8 or 9 needed for entry into highly sought-after sixth forms. They focus on exam technique and analytical skills to help your child meet that high bar.

How can an online tutor help my child's application stand out for universities like UCL or LSE?

A strong English Language A-Level and a compelling personal statement are key. Our tutors can help your child develop the sophisticated writing and analytical skills that top universities look for. They can provide expert guidance on structuring arguments and expressing ideas with clarity, which is invaluable for both their A-Levels and their UCAS application.

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

Yes, and for many, it's even better. Our online classroom has interactive whiteboards perfect for analysing texts together, and shared document features for real-time essay feedback. Plus, your child can learn from the comfort of home in London, connecting with top English specialists from across the UK, not just those who live nearby.

How do you ensure your tutors are high quality?

We have a rigorous selection process. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed by our team, and has proven expertise in their subject to ensure your child receives the highest quality of teaching.

What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?

We know that the right personal connection is vital for learning. If for any reason the first lesson isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will be happy to cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.

How much do online English Language tutors cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete flexibility.

My child finds analysing poetry really difficult. Can a tutor help with that specifically?

Of course. That's the beauty of one-to-one tutoring. The tutor can dedicate entire sessions to breaking down poetic techniques, exploring themes, and building your child's confidence in analysing unseen poetry until it becomes a strength, not a weakness.

How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should they be?

Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually ideal. The frequency is completely up to you and what your child needs. Many students have one session a week, but you can schedule more during critical times like the run-up to mocks or final exams.

What equipment does my child need for online tutoring?

It's very simple. All they need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no software to download.

Can my child get help with subjects other than English Language?

Yes, we offer tutoring in over 300 subjects. Whether it's support for maths and sciences, help with another language, or even learning a new skill like coding or playing the guitar, we have expert tutors ready to help.

Do you offer support for specific exam boards like AQA or Edexcel?

Yes. Many of our tutors are specialists in particular exam boards. You can filter your search for tutors with experience in the specific board your child's school uses to ensure the teaching is perfectly aligned with the syllabus and exam requirements.

How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?

You can find and message tutors straight away. Many tutors respond within a few hours, and you could potentially have your first lesson booked for your child in London within 24 hours. It's designed to be quick and simple.
