Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends Budehaven and wants to apply to Callywith College. Can a tutor help with that specific goal?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students secure places at their chosen colleges. They can focus on the specific GCSE grade requirements for Callywith, working on exam technique and knowledge gaps to help your child achieve the results they need for their application.
We live in Bude. How does online tutoring give my child an advantage?
Online tutoring gives your child access to the very best English specialists from across the UK, not just those who live locally. This means they can be matched with a tutor who is a perfect fit for their learning style and specific goals, giving them the same high-quality support as a student in any major city.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for success. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send them a message before booking. This helps you get a feel for their teaching style and personality to find someone your child will really connect with.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. Tutors can break down difficult topics and celebrate small wins, which builds self-belief and a more positive attitude towards the subject.
Are the tutors qualified and have they been background-checked?
Yes, absolutely. We take safety and quality very seriously. We accept only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, and every tutor on the platform is an expert in their field who has passed an enhanced background check.
How much does online English tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
What happens in an online English lesson?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents and past papers. It’s a dynamic and engaging way for your child to learn directly with their tutor.
How often should my child have lessons?
Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You might want to increase the frequency in the run-up to exams or have sessions less often. You can discuss the best plan with your chosen tutor.
How quickly can we expect to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach gets results. Many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions, and we know that 90% of our students improve their academic performance by at least one grade.
Can I track my child's progress?
Yes. You can message your child's tutor at any time to ask for an update. Tutors are always happy to provide feedback on how your child is getting on, what they've been covering in lessons, and what the plan is for upcoming sessions.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. Your child could learn skills like coding, a new language, or even how to play the guitar, all with our expert tutors.
