Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is studying for their CCEA English Language GCSEs. Can we find a tutor familiar with this specific curriculum?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors have extensive experience with the CCEA curriculum. You can use our search filters to find tutors who specify their expertise in CCEA exams, ensuring the support your child receives is perfectly aligned with what they're learning in their Northern Ireland school.

We live in a rural part of Northern Ireland. How does online tutoring help us access the best support?

This is one of the biggest advantages of online tutoring. It removes geography from the equation. From anywhere in Northern Ireland, your child can connect with a top English specialist from across the UK, not just whoever happens to live nearby. It opens up a huge choice of expertise for your family.

Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?

Yes, and many families prefer it! Online lessons offer the same dedicated, one-to-one focus as in-person tutoring, but with added flexibility. Tutors use interactive tools like digital whiteboards to make learning engaging. Plus, with no travel time, it's easier to fit quality support into a busy week.

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

Finding the right personality fit is crucial for a great learning partnership. We understand that. If the first session with a tutor isn't quite right, just email our friendly support team at support@tutorful.co.uk, and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.

How much do online English Language tutors for students in Northern Ireland cost?

Our English Language tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of study. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, so you can find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.

How will I know if my child is making progress with their tutor?

It's a partnership between you, your child, and the tutor. Tutors provide regular feedback on your child's progress, highlighting areas of improvement and next steps. You can also message your tutor at any time through the platform. The best sign, though, is often seeing your child's confidence grow day by day.

How do you select your English Language tutors? Are they qualified?

We're very selective because we know how important trust is. Only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform. Every tutor is background-checked, and we verify their ID and qualifications. You can read reviews from other parents on each tutor's profile to help you choose.

My child loves creative writing but isn't preparing for an exam. Do you offer tutoring for that too?

Yes, definitely! Tutoring isn't just for exams. We have many tutors who are passionate about nurturing a love for language and creativity. Whether it's poetry, short stories, or simply finding their unique writing style, we can connect your child with a tutor who can inspire them.

What technology do we need for an online tutoring session?

It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install. It's designed to be easy and intuitive for everyone.

How often should my child have a tutoring session to see a real difference?

Most students benefit from a one-hour session each week to build momentum and consolidate their learning. However, it's completely flexible. You might want more frequent sessions leading up to an exam, or less frequent ones for general confidence building. You can discuss the best plan with your chosen tutor.

Can a tutor help with my child's confidence in English, not just their grades?

This is at the heart of what we do. When a child works one-to-one with a tutor who understands them, they start to see that they *can* do it. That belief is transformative. Many of the 200,000+ students we've helped have told us the biggest change wasn't just in their grades, but in how they felt about themselves.

Are there tutors who can help my child explore Northern Ireland's rich literary heritage as part of their studies?

What a fantastic idea! Many of our English tutors have a deep love for literature and would be delighted to explore the works of poets like Seamus Heaney or authors like C.S. Lewis with your child. You can mention this interest when you message potential tutors to find someone who shares that passion.
