Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can an online tutor really help with the 11+ for competitive South-West London schools like Tiffin or Putney High?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in entrance exams. They bring expert knowledge of the comprehension, creative writing, and verbal reasoning skills required by highly selective schools. They can provide targeted practice and strategies to help your child feel calm and prepared, all from the comfort of your home.

My child is aiming for a top grade (8/9) at GCSE to get into a competitive sixth form. Can you help?

Yes, this is exactly where one-to-one tutoring makes a huge difference. An expert tutor can focus on the nuanced skills needed for top grades—like advanced analysis, sophisticated argumentation, and flawless essay structure—that can be difficult to perfect in a busy classroom. 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.

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

We find it's just as effective, and often more so. Our online classroom has interactive whiteboards for analysing texts together, and document sharing makes reviewing essays simple. Plus, the main advantage is access: your child in South-West London can connect with a top English specialist from anywhere in the UK, not just who is available locally.

How do you ensure your tutors are high quality?

We're very selective. Only 1 in 8 applicants make it onto our platform. Every tutor is interviewed, DBS checked, and has their qualifications verified. We choose tutors who are not only subject experts but also passionate and caring individuals who know how to build a child's confidence.

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

It's so important that your child feels comfortable, so we make this easy. If the first session isn't the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.

How much does online English Language tutoring cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from £25 per hour. You can filter tutors by price on our website to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts—you simply pay as you go.

My child struggles with creative writing specifically. Can a tutor focus just on that?

Of course. That's the beauty of one-to-one tutoring. You can let the tutor know your child's specific goals, and they will create a tailored plan to build their skills and confidence in that particular area, whether it's story structure, descriptive language, or character development.

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

Sessions are typically one hour long. Most families find a weekly session provides the perfect consistency to build momentum and see real progress, but the schedule is completely flexible and up to you and your tutor.

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 online classroom is browser-based, so there's no complex software to install.

Do online tutors understand the pressures of the London education system?

Many of our tutors have experience working with students in London and other highly competitive areas. You can view their full profiles, including their experience, to find someone who understands the specific challenges and expectations your child is facing in South-West London.

Do you offer tutoring for other subjects, or just English?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! From maths and science for GCSEs and A-Levels, to learning a musical instrument, coding, or even public speaking for personal development. We're here to support your child's entire learning journey.

How quickly can we get started?

You can get started today. Simply search for an English Language tutor, compare their profiles and reviews, and send a message to the ones you like. Many tutors respond within a few hours, and you could have your first session booked for this week.
