Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can an online tutor help my child prepare for the 11+ for grammar schools in Bexley or Bromley?

Absolutely. We have many experienced tutors who specialise in 11+ preparation. They can provide targeted support for the English and Verbal Reasoning sections, focusing on comprehension, creative writing, and exam technique specific to the entrance exams for these highly competitive schools.

My child attends a Harris academy. How can tutoring complement their schoolwork?

Our tutors can work in partnership with your child's school curriculum. They can help consolidate classroom learning, fill in any gaps, and stretch your child further, ensuring they have a rock-solid understanding of the concepts needed to achieve top grades in their GCSEs and beyond.

We're worried a weak English GCSE grade will limit Sixth Form and university choices. Can you help?

Yes, this is a common concern and where we can make a real difference. Tutors can focus specifically on improving your child's grade, often by two whole grades for GCSE. They can build both the skills and the confidence needed to secure those crucial 7-9 grades, opening up more options for their future, including applications to competitive universities like King's or Goldsmiths.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple and effective. All lessons take place via video call in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes an interactive whiteboard. Your child can speak with their tutor, share work, and collaborate on problems in real-time, all from the comfort of your home in South East London.

Is online tutoring as good as having someone come to our house?

We believe it's even better! Your child gets the same dedicated, one-to-one attention, but with access to the very best tutors from across the UK, not just those who live nearby. It's also more flexible and saves you travel time, fitting easily around your family's schedule.

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

Finding the right personality match is so important. We're confident you will, but if for any reason the first lesson isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.

How do you vet your English Language tutors?

We're very selective. Every tutor is interviewed, background-checked, and has their qualifications verified. We only accept 1 in 8 applicants, so you can be sure your child is learning from a true expert who is passionate about their subject.

How much do online English Language tutors cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can expect to pay between £25 and £50 per hour. You can filter tutors by price on our site to find a great match for your budget, with no hidden fees.

Can we get help with other subjects besides English Language?

Yes, of course. We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects, from core academic subjects like maths and science to languages, coding, music tuition, and even public speaking. Whatever your child's interest or need, we have a specialist tutor who can help.

How flexible are the lesson times?

Completely. You can arrange lessons for any time that suits your family, whether that's after school, on weekends, or during school holidays. You agree on times directly with your tutor, giving you total control over the schedule.

Does my child need any special equipment for online lessons?

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. It's designed to be as simple and intuitive as possible.

My child has lost their confidence in English. How can a tutor help?

This is at the heart of what we do. A great tutor builds a supportive, encouraging environment where it's safe to make mistakes and ask questions. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they help rebuild your child's self-belief, which often has a positive impact far beyond their English lessons.
