Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're aiming for a grammar school in Broadstairs like Dane Court or Chatham & Clarendon. Can a tutor help with the Kent Test?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience helping children prepare for the 11+ and the Kent Test. They can focus on key areas like reading comprehension, verbal reasoning, and building a strong vocabulary to help your child feel prepared and confident.

Are your tutors familiar with the specific English requirements for the 11+ in Kent?

Yes, you can find tutors who are very familiar with the 11+ entrance exam format used in Kent. When searching, you can filter for tutors with 11+ experience and read their profiles to see how they've helped other children aiming for grammar school places. You can also message them before booking to discuss your child's specific needs.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right fit 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 do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents. We recommend looking for a tutor whose profile mentions experience with your child's specific goals, whether that's preparing for the Kent Test or building confidence in reading. You can also message tutors for free to ask questions before you book.

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 has their ID verified. We also interview every tutor to ensure they have the right experience and a passion for teaching. We only accept 1 in 8 applicants, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.

How much does an online English tutor cost in Broadstairs?

The cost of an English tutor varies depending on their experience and qualifications. Prices are set by the tutors themselves and are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find someone who fits your budget. 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. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a stable internet connection, a microphone, and a webcam.

Can tutoring help my child if they lack confidence in English?

Definitely. A one-to-one tutor can create a safe, encouraging environment where your child feels comfortable asking questions they might be shy to ask in class. This personalised attention is fantastic for building self-esteem and a positive attitude towards learning.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also see their confidence grow first-hand! The one-to-one format allows tutors to constantly check for understanding and adapt their teaching, ensuring your child is always moving forward.

How often should my child have a lesson?

This really depends on your child's goals. Many parents find one session a week is a great way to build momentum. You can discuss the best frequency with your chosen tutor – they'll be happy to offer their professional recommendation.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions are one hour long, which gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without being overwhelming. However, you can arrange different session lengths with your tutor to fit your child's needs and concentration span.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills like creative writing or public speaking?

We offer a huge range of subjects and skills beyond the core school curriculum! You can find expert tutors for everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar, to coding in Python, public speaking, or even creative writing.
