Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is finding the jump to Higher English at their Aberdeen school really tough. Can a tutor specifically help with this?

Absolutely. This is a common challenge we help students overcome. Our specialist English Literature tutors understand the demands of the SQA curriculum. They can provide focused, one-to-one support on the critical analysis and essay-writing skills needed to bridge that gap and build your child's confidence for their exams.

Can an online tutor help prepare my child for an essay-based degree at the University of Aberdeen?

Yes, completely. The skills learnt in Higher English Literature are foundational for university study. Our tutors help your child develop the critical thinking, textual analysis, and persuasive writing abilities that are essential for success in competitive, essay-based courses at top Scottish universities.

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

We find it's even more effective for many families. Online tutoring gives your child in Aberdeen access to a much wider pool of top-tier tutors from across the UK, not just who's available locally. With interactive tools like whiteboards and resource sharing, plus the convenience of learning from home, it's a focused and flexible way to learn.

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

Finding the right personality fit is so important. We're confident you'll find a great match, but if the first session isn't quite right, 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.

With the high standards at schools like Cults Academy, how can a tutor give my child an edge?

Whilst schools in Aberdeen provide an excellent education, large class sizes can make it hard for every child to get individual attention. A tutor provides that personalised space to ask questions without feeling self-conscious, work through specific challenges, and explore topics in greater depth than is possible in the classroom.

How do you check your tutors are qualified?

We have a rigorous selection process, and only 1 in 8 applicants are successful. Every tutor is background-checked, and we verify their academic qualifications and teaching experience. Many of our tutors are qualified teachers or subject-matter experts with specific experience in the Scottish curriculum.

How much does online English Literature tutoring cost for a student in Aberdeen?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. This choice allows you to find an excellent, experienced tutor who also fits your family's budget.

My child is also interested in creative writing. Do you offer tutoring for that too?

We do! Many of our English tutors are also passionate about creative writing and can help nurture that skill. We also offer tutoring in a huge range of subjects, from maths and sciences to music, coding, and modern languages, all available online for your child in Aberdeen.

What technology do we need for an online session?

It's very straightforward. All your child needs 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 complicated software to download.

How flexible is scheduling for online lessons?

Extremely flexible. You can see each tutor's availability on their profile and request slots that fit around your family's busy life. Whether it's after school, on weekends, or during the holidays, you can find a time that works for you.

Are there tutors who understand the Scottish education system and SQA exams?

Yes, many of our tutors have specific experience with the Scottish curriculum, including National 5s, Highers, and Advanced Highers. You can use our search filters to find tutors who specialise in the SQA qualifications to ensure your child gets the most relevant support.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback to both students and parents. You can message your tutor at any time to discuss progress. The real proof, however, is often seen outside of lessons – in your child's growing confidence, their improved school reports, and a newfound enthusiasm for the subject.
