Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is preparing for the 11+ for schools like St Paul's and The Harrodian. Can I find a specialist tutor?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have extensive experience helping students prepare for competitive 11+ entrance exams. You can read their profiles to see their specific expertise and even message them before booking to discuss your child's needs and the requirements of your target schools.

We're aiming for top A-Level English grades for a Russell Group university. How can a tutor help?

Our tutors can provide focused support for A-Level students aiming high. They can help your child master complex literary analysis, refine their essay writing technique, and develop the critical thinking skills that top universities like Oxford and Cambridge look for. They can act as a mentor, guiding your child through the demands of the A-Level curriculum.

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

The best way is to look through the profiles of our tutors. You can see their experience, qualifications, what other parents have said in their reviews, and their price. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to find the one who is the best fit for your child's personality and learning style.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget. All pricing is shown clearly on each tutor's profile with no hidden costs.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check and has been personally interviewed by our team. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply.

How does online tutoring work?

It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It has all the tools needed for your child to have an engaging, one-to-one lesson from the comfort of your home.

How can a tutor help my child with their confidence in English?

A one-to-one tutor creates a safe and supportive environment where your child can learn at their own pace. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help your child feel more capable and less anxious about their English lessons, which is a huge boost to their confidence.

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

We know that the right fit is important. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor, as many are flexible and can arrange longer or shorter sessions if needed.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child’s progress. You can communicate with them easily through our messaging system to discuss how your child is getting on, what they are covering in lessons, and the next steps in their learning plan.

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

While we have thousands of expert academic tutors, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. Your child could learn a new skill like coding or playing the guitar, get help with university applications, or even explore a new hobby.

How quickly can we start lessons?

You can start very quickly. Once you've found a tutor you like, you can send them a message to arrange a time for your first lesson. Many parents are able to find and book the perfect tutor for their child within 24 hours.
