Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to Richard Huish College. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE English grade they need?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for competitive colleges. They can focus on the specific skills your child needs to secure a grade 6 or above in GCSE English, strengthening their application and opening up their A-Level options.
We hope our child will go to a university like Exeter or Bristol. How can English tutoring help with this?
A strong English qualification is highly valued by top universities. Beyond achieving a great GCSE grade, a tutor can help your child develop the critical thinking and analytical writing skills that are essential for A-Levels and university-level study, making their future UCAS application much stronger.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. 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.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we love helping students with core subjects, we also have brilliant tutors who can teach a wide range of skills, from learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to coding in Python. There's something for everyone.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents like you. We recommend messaging a few tutors first to discuss your child's specific goals. It’s all about finding someone your child will connect with.
How much does an English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience, so you can find an expert to suit your budget. There are no hidden fees, contracts, or sign-up costs.
My child's confidence in English has dropped. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. In a supportive, private setting, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Our tutors are experts at building confidence, celebrating small wins, and helping students see that they are capable of succeeding.
How do the 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. It’s a simple and effective way to learn from the comfort of your own home.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and they all undergo a background check. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from a trusted and experienced professional.
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 improve a student's GCSE results by up to 2 grades. Tutors can work on specific exam techniques, revision strategies, and areas of weakness to help your child feel fully prepared.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most students have one lesson a week, as this provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange lessons with your tutor as often as you feel your child needs them, especially in the run-up to exams.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message them at any time to discuss progress. The biggest sign, though, is often the change you'll see in your child's confidence and attitude towards their English work.
