Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

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

It’s all about finding the right fit. You can read reviews from other parents, watch introductory videos, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's specific needs. Many tutors specialise in certain areas, like GCSE exam preparation or creative writing, so you can find an expert for your child's goals.

My child attends Teddington School. Can a tutor support their specific curriculum?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in supporting students with the national curriculum as well as specific exam boards like AQA and Edexcel. You can message a tutor before booking to discuss your child's schoolwork and ensure they are a good match for their needs.

We're looking at sixth forms like Esher College. Can a tutor help with the A-Level English transition?

Yes, this is a very popular reason for seeking a tutor. The jump from GCSE to A-Level English can be significant. A tutor can help your child master the new skills required, such as more in-depth textual analysis and independent research, giving them a confident start to their studies.

How much does an online English tutor cost in Teddington?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. The cost is clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden fees.

How do online lessons work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from home.

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

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 can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of being judged. Tutors can break down difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and adapt their teaching style, which all helps to build your child’s self-belief.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check and has been personally interviewed by our team. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.

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

Lessons are typically an hour long. Most families find that one session a week works well, but you can arrange a schedule that best suits your child's needs and your family's routine. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.

Is tutoring only for children who are struggling?

Not at all. While tutoring is fantastic for helping children catch up, it's also brilliant for those who want to get ahead or explore a subject they love in more depth. Many students use tutors to help them aim for the top grades in their GCSEs or A-Levels.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Beyond core academics like English and Maths, your child can learn practical skills like coding, a new language for a holiday, or even take up a new hobby like playing the guitar. There's a tutor for almost any interest.

Can tutoring help my child with their GCSE English results?

Yes, it can make a real difference. Our data shows that focused, one-to-one tutoring can help improve a child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades. A tutor can help with specific exam techniques, revision strategies, and building a deep understanding of the course texts.
