Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is preparing for the 11+ for Southend or Westcliff grammar schools. Can I find a specialist tutor?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience with the 11+ entrance exams, including the Verbal Reasoning and English comprehension sections. You can read tutor profiles and message them directly to ask about their experience with these specific schools and exam formats.

We're thinking ahead to GCSEs. Can a tutor help my child get the grades needed for the best A-Level courses?

Yes, that's a key focus for many of our tutors. They can provide targeted support to help your child improve their English Language and Literature grades, which are often crucial for getting into competitive A-Level programmes. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

You can browse profiles, watch introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important step.

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

We understand that the right tutor-student relationship is key. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an identity check and an enhanced DBS background check, before they can start teaching.

How can a tutor help build my child's confidence?

One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space for your child to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Our tutors provide positive encouragement and celebrate small wins, which helps build self-esteem and a love for learning.

How much does an online English tutor 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 someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How does online tutoring work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools, making it easy for your child to learn from the comfort of home.

Do you only offer tutoring for school subjects like English?

Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also have experts who can teach practical skills and hobbies. Your child could learn anything from coding and guitar to a new language.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most lessons are one hour long, which gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths by messaging your tutor directly.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. We encourage our tutors to provide regular feedback to parents. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's progress and the topics they've been covering in their sessions.

What happens in the first lesson?

The first session is usually a great opportunity for the tutor to get to know your child, understand their learning style, and discuss their goals with you. It's all about building a good relationship and making a plan for future lessons.
