Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive sixth form near Covent Garden. Can a tutor help them stand out?

Yes, absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students excel in high-pressure academic environments. They can focus on developing the advanced analytical and essay-writing skills that selective sixth forms look for, helping your child to demonstrate their full potential and build their confidence for interviews and entrance exams.

We're hoping for a place at LSE or King's College for a humanities degree. Can we find a tutor with experience in this?

Many of our English tutors are graduates from top UK universities, including those in the Russell Group. You can view each tutor's profile to see their academic background and find someone who understands the level of critical thinking required to secure a place on a competitive humanities course.

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

You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few tutors who have experience with your child's specific goals—whether that's GCSE exam technique or A-Level coursework—and sending them a message to see who feels like the best fit for your child's personality and learning style.

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

We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you feel the first session wasn'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.

How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked with an enhanced DBS check. We also interview every tutor and verify their ID and qualifications. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from a pool of trusted professionals.

How much does online English tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts, so you just pay for the lessons you book, giving you complete flexibility.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. This allows your child and their tutor to work together on texts, essays, and practice questions in real-time, just as they would in person.

Can a tutor help my child with their confidence, not just their grades?

Definitely. For many students, a lack of confidence can be the biggest barrier to learning. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement. This one-to-one support often leads to a big boost in self-belief that benefits them far beyond their English lessons.

Is Tutorful just for academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills like coding or music?

While we offer fantastic support for core subjects like English and Maths, we also have tutors for a huge range of other interests. Whether your child wants to learn guitar, get started with coding in Python, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their passions.

What exam boards can tutors help with for GCSE and A-Level English?

Our tutors have experience with all major UK exam boards, including AQA, Edexcel, OCR, and WJEC. You can check a tutor's profile to see which boards they specialise in or send them a direct message to confirm before you book.

How quickly can we find a tutor and get started?

You can often find and book a tutor for a lesson within 24 hours. Simply search for your subject, filter by availability, and message a tutor to arrange your first session. Many tutors respond within a few hours.

How long does a typical tutoring session last?

The standard length for a tutoring session is one hour. This gives enough time to dive into a topic properly without it being overwhelming. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child.
