Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive course at the University of Bristol. Can a tutor help with that?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have experience helping students with university applications. They can help your child develop the advanced analytical and essay-writing skills needed to achieve top A-Level grades and write a personal statement that stands out to admissions tutors at competitive universities like Bristol and Exeter.

The Kings of Wessex Academy is a great school, so how does tutoring add value?

We agree, local schools provide a great education! Tutoring works alongside school, offering a dedicated, one-to-one space for your child to focus on their specific challenges. A tutor can spend an entire hour reinforcing a topic your child found difficult in class, or focus on honing the specific exam techniques needed to turn a good grade into an exceptional one.

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

You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking to ensure you find the perfect match.

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

We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. 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 can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and we interview every single one. We also verify their ID and qualifications. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.

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 an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

My child is preparing for their GCSE English exams. How can a tutor specifically help?

Our tutors are brilliant at preparing students for GCSEs. They can create a tailored revision plan, work on specific exam techniques, and build confidence in key areas. This focused support is incredibly effective and can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades.

How do online lessons actually work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It's designed to be simple and engaging, allowing your child and their tutor to focus on learning.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence, not just their grades?

Confidence is key. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy about asking in class. As they start to master tricky topics with their tutor's support, you'll see their self-belief grow, which has a positive impact on all their subjects.

How long will my child need a tutor for?

It really depends on your child's goals. Some students use a tutor for a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others have weekly lessons throughout the school year to build their skills and confidence over time. It's completely flexible and up to you.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we have expert tutors for all core academic subjects, we also offer a huge range of other skills! From learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to coding in Python, there's a tutor to help your child explore their passions.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. The best way is to have regular chats with your child's tutor. They can provide feedback on how lessons are going and what they're planning to cover next. This open communication ensures you're always up to date on the great progress your child is making.
