Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to apply to a competitive sixth form like Mulberry STEM Academy. Can a tutor help them stand out?

Yes, absolutely. Our tutors can help your child develop the advanced analytical and essay-writing skills that top sixth forms look for. They can work on everything from exam technique to building a deeper understanding of texts, ensuring your child's application is as strong as it can be.

We're aiming for a Russell Group university like Queen Mary or UCL. How can an English tutor support this long-term goal?

A strong English grade at GCSE is a crucial first step. A tutor helps build a solid foundation of critical thinking and communication skills that are essential for A-Levels and university-level study. They can help your child become a more confident and independent learner, preparing them for future academic success.

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

You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message them to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding someone your child connects with and whose teaching style matches what you're looking for.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have a 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.

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, allowing you to find an experienced tutor that fits your budget.

Are your tutors qualified and have they been background-checked?

Yes. We take safety and quality very seriously. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, and every tutor undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an ID check and a background check, to ensure your child is in safe hands.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has a video chat function, an interactive whiteboard, and a tool for sharing documents. It’s a secure and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.

How quickly can my child see an improvement in their English grades?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our personalised approach gets results. With consistent one-to-one support tailored to their needs, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. For GCSEs, this can often mean an improvement of up to two grades.

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

This is very common, and it's where a tutor can make a huge difference. By working in a supportive, one-to-one environment, a tutor can break down difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and help your child rebuild their self-belief at their own pace.

How long are the lessons and how often should we have them?

Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find that one session a week is effective, especially in the run-up to exams, but you can arrange a frequency that works best for your child and your schedule directly with your tutor.

What happens in a typical first lesson?

The first lesson is usually about the tutor getting to know your child. They'll chat about what your child finds difficult, what they enjoy about English, and what their goals are. It's a relaxed way to build a relationship and create a plan for future lessons.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something else?

While we have thousands of tutors for core subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn anything from coding and Python to playing the guitar or speaking a new language.
