Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to apply to the University of Exeter. Can a tutor help with that?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have experience helping students with their UCAS applications, including crafting powerful personal statements that stand out. They can help your child develop the advanced analytical and writing skills that top Russell Group universities like Exeter look for.

Competition from Exeter schools is tough. How can a tutor give my child an edge?

One-to-one tuition provides targeted support that isn't always possible in a busy classroom. A tutor can identify and strengthen specific areas of weakness, from essay technique to textual analysis, building the skills and confidence your child needs to perform at their very best and distinguish themselves in a competitive field.

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

You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their experience. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific goals. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.

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

We understand that the right fit is crucial. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect 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.

Can tutoring really improve my child's GCSE English grade?

Yes, it can make a significant difference. The focused, one-to-one support can help your child improve their GCSE results by up to 2 grades. Tutors can work on specific exam board requirements, perfect essay technique, and build confidence ahead of the exams.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

Can tutoring help my child if they've lost confidence in English?

Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits we see. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. This one-to-one attention often helps them rediscover their enjoyment of the subject and rebuild their self-belief.

How do the online lessons work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing, making it easy for your child and their tutor to collaborate. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

How do I know the tutors are safe?

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 only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from the best.

How often should my child have a lesson?

This is completely up to you and your child. Most families start with one session a week, but you can arrange lessons more or less frequently depending on your goals, whether it's ongoing support or a final push before exams.

What kind of results can I expect?

We're proud that 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade. More importantly, parents tell us they see a huge boost in their child's confidence and enthusiasm for learning. You can read over 4,100 reviews from parents on our site.

Do you only offer academic subjects like English?

While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we also offer support in a wide range of skills. Whether your child wants to learn a musical instrument like the guitar, get into coding, or explore a new language, you can find experienced tutors on Tutorful.
