Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're aiming for a grammar school in Sutton or Kingston. Can a tutor help with the 11+ English exam?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have experience with the specific requirements of schools like Wilson's or Tiffin. They can help your child build confidence in complex comprehension, creative writing, and exam technique.

My child wants to get into a competitive local sixth form. Can a tutor help them get top GCSE English grades?

Yes. A dedicated tutor can focus on the specific areas of the GCSE English curriculum your child finds challenging. This one-to-one attention can make a huge difference, and we've seen our tutors help students improve their final GCSE results by up to two grades.

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

You can start by filtering tutors based on their experience with the 11+, GCSEs, or A-Levels. Watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send them a message to ask about their approach. Many tutors offer a free 15-minute chat to ensure they're the right fit for your child.

How much does an online English tutor in Mitcham cost?

The cost varies depending on the tutor's experience and level of expertise. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

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

We know how important the right connection is 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 a tutor help my child with their confidence?

One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong. As they start to grasp difficult topics and see their skills improve, their self-belief naturally grows. Our tutors are experts at celebrating small wins to build lasting confidence.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check. We are very selective, and only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform.

How does online tutoring work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

How long will it take to see an improvement?

Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is key. Many parents tell us they see a positive change in their child's confidence and attitude towards a subject within just a few weeks. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. The best way is to chat with your tutor, who will be happy to give you regular feedback on your child's progress, highlighting areas where they are improving and what the focus will be for upcoming lessons.

What happens in a typical English lesson?

Every lesson is tailored to your child's needs. A tutor might start by reviewing a piece of homework, then introduce a new concept like poetic devices, and finish by practising exam-style questions on the interactive whiteboard. It's all about what will help your child the most.

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

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