Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

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

Think about what your child needs most. Is it help with a specific text, exam technique, or overall confidence? You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. Plus, you can message tutors beforehand to make sure they're the perfect fit.

My child is preparing for the 11+ for a Buckinghamshire grammar school. Can a tutor help?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and are familiar with the requirements for specific regions, including the verbal and non-verbal reasoning skills needed for Buckinghamshire grammar school entrance exams. You can use our filters to find a tutor with this specific experience.

How much does an online English tutor in great-missenden cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically range from £15 to £40 per hour, depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget, with no hidden fees.

How do online lessons work?

All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom has everything your child needs, including a video chat function, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s simple, secure, and designed for learning.

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

We know how important the right connection is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you feel the first tutor isn't the right fit for your child for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

We live in great-missenden, so how does online tutoring work for us?

The beauty of online tutoring is that it brings the best tutors from across the UK right to your home in great-missenden. You're not limited to tutors who live nearby, which means you have a much wider choice of experts to find the perfect one for your child, all without the hassle of travel.

How can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID verified. We also interview every applicant and are very selective, only accepting 1 in 8 who apply. With over 4,100 reviews giving us a 4.6-star rating, you can feel confident you're in safe hands.

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

Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of being judged. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they can rebuild your child's self-belief and help them enjoy learning again.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the 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.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions last for one hour, as this is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child's schedule and concentration.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress. This allows enough time to build on what was learned in the previous lesson. However, the frequency is completely flexible and can be arranged with your tutor to suit your child's goals, whether it's ongoing support or a final push before an exam.

Which exam boards can the English tutors help with?

Our tutors have experience with all the major UK exam boards, including AQA, Edexcel, OCR, and WJEC. Many tutors list their areas of expertise on their profiles, so you can easily find someone who understands the specific requirements of your child's GCSE or A-Level syllabus.
