Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child attends Dronfield Henry Fanshawe School. Can a tutor help them secure a top GCSE grade?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students meet the high expectations of specific schools. They can create a tailored plan to target the exact areas your child needs to strengthen for their GCSE English exams, helping them build the skills and confidence to aim for the best possible grade.

We're hoping for A-Levels and a place at the University of Sheffield. Can an English tutor help?

Yes, a tutor can be a huge help. By strengthening your child's core English skills now, a tutor lays the groundwork for success at A-Level and in their university application. They can help your child develop the critical thinking and writing abilities that competitive universities value highly.

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

It's easy to find the perfect match on Tutorful. You can read detailed tutor profiles, check qualifications, and see reviews from other parents. We also recommend booking a free video chat with a tutor to make sure their teaching style is the right fit for your child before you commit to lessons.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, so prices can vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget, and you'll always see the cost upfront with no hidden fees.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect fit, which is why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence in English?

Confidence is key to learning. A private tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By going at their pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help rebuild their self-belief and rediscover a love for the subject.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We also have a strict vetting process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How does online tutoring actually work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson. There's live video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes, and the ability to upload documents like essays or past papers. It's a simple and effective way to learn from the comfort of home.

Can a tutor help with specific GCSE texts like 'An Inspector Calls'?

Yes, definitely. Many of our English tutors are specialists in the GCSE curriculum and have extensive experience teaching specific set texts. You can find a tutor who can provide expert guidance on character analysis, themes, and exam questions for your child's required reading.

How long are the lessons and how often should we have them?

Lessons are typically one hour long, but you can arrange different durations with your tutor. Most students have one session per week, but you can choose a frequency that matches your child's goals and your family's schedule. It's completely flexible.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. You can find tutors for modern languages, music lessons like guitar and piano, and even practical skills like coding and Python.

What happens in the first lesson?

The first lesson is all about getting to know each other. The tutor will chat with your child about what they find difficult in English, what they enjoy, and what they want to achieve. It's a great opportunity to set some goals and build a positive relationship from the start.
