Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
How do I choose the best online English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit for your child's personality and learning style. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to chat about your child's goals before booking.
My child attends Clitheroe Royal Grammar School. Can we find a tutor experienced with their curriculum?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience supporting students from specific schools. You can mention this in your search or when messaging tutors to find someone who understands the school's curriculum and expectations.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency helps you find a brilliant tutor who also fits your family's budget.
Are the tutors familiar with the requirements for colleges in Lancashire?
Yes, many of our tutors have extensive experience helping students with their applications and studies for local institutions like Burnley College, Nelson and Colne College, and Blackburn College. You can ask tutors about their specific experience in your initial message.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are all the tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our highest priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has an up-to-date DBS or background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can a tutor help my child with their GCSE English exams?
A tutor can provide focused support on specific areas your child finds tricky, from exam technique and time management to understanding marking schemes. They can work through past papers, help with analysing texts, and build the confidence your child needs. Our data shows we can help students improve their 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 a simple and effective way for them to learn from the comfort of your home in Clitheroe.
How often should my child have lessons?
Most students have one lesson per week, as this consistency helps build momentum and confidence. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange a schedule that works for your family and your child's goals directly with your chosen tutor.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one lesson, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor helps your child see what they're truly capable of.
What's the difference between a tutor and a school teacher?
While a teacher manages a whole class, a tutor can focus entirely on your child. They can adapt their teaching method to your child's individual learning style, go at their pace, and give them the dedicated attention they need to grasp difficult concepts.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! So while we can certainly help with English, Maths or Science, your child could also learn to play the guitar, get help with university applications, or even learn a new language or coding.
