Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're aiming for Chigwell or Bancroft's. Can a tutor help my child prepare for the English entrance exams?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in entrance exam preparation. You can filter for tutors with specific 11+ experience and discuss your goals for schools like Chigwell and Bancroft's directly with them to ensure they're the right fit for your child.

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

Certainly. We have experienced tutors who are very familiar with the requirements of the CSSE (Consortium of Selective Schools in Essex) and other 11+ exams. They can help your child build the specific comprehension, writing, and reasoning skills needed.

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

You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking your first lesson to find the perfect match.

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

We want to make sure you find the right person for your child. 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.

How much does online English tutoring cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study, giving you the flexibility to find an expert who fits your budget.

How do online lessons actually work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs: a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's a simple, effective, and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.

My child finds creative writing really difficult. How can a tutor help?

This is a common challenge, and our tutors can make a real difference. They can break down the process of planning a story, developing characters, and using descriptive language in a fun, encouraging way, helping to turn a point of anxiety into a source of confidence.

Are the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked, and we verify their ID and references. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to our platform.

Can a tutor help my child with their GCSE English results?

Yes. Tutors can provide targeted support to help your child master the curriculum, refine their exam technique, and build their confidence. In fact, focused tutoring can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to two grades.

How long does it take to see an improvement?

Every child learns at their own pace, but the benefit of one-to-one tutoring is that it's completely focused on their needs. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions.

What happens in a typical first lesson?

The first session is usually a chance for the tutor to get to know your child, understand their learning style, and chat about their goals and any areas they find tricky. It's a relaxed way to build a rapport and create a plan for future lessons.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?

While we have experts for core subjects like English and Maths, we also offer tutoring for a huge range of other skills and hobbies. Whether your child wants to learn to code in Python, play the guitar, or speak a new language, you can find a brilliant tutor for them here.
