Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is at a very competitive Guildford school. Can a tutor help them stand out?

Absolutely. We understand the high standards at schools like RGS, Guildford High, and George Abbot. A one-to-one tutor can provide focused support that complements your child's schoolwork, helping them master difficult topics and build the deep understanding needed to achieve the top grades.

We're aiming for a top sixth form. How can an English tutor help with this?

A strong GCSE in English is often a key requirement for the most competitive sixth forms. Our tutors can help your child develop the analytical and essay-writing skills needed to secure a grade 8 or 9, strengthening their A-Level and future university applications significantly.

How do I choose the best 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 and sending them a message to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important step.

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, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

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 are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from the best.

How do online lessons work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents and past papers. It's a secure and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.

How can tutoring help my child feel more confident in English?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. A tutor can go over topics at your child's pace, helping them master concepts and feel prepared for exams.

What if we don't click with the first tutor we try?

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

Do you only offer tutoring for school subjects?

Not at all! While we support students through their GCSEs and A-Levels, many of our tutors offer lessons in other areas. Your child could learn a musical instrument like the guitar, a new language, or even practical skills like coding.

How often should my child have an English lesson?

Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress, especially in the run-up to exams. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be discussed directly with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

The standard lesson length is one hour. This gives enough time to review previous work, tackle a new topic in depth, and set goals for the next session without it feeling overwhelming for your child.

What happens if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?

Life gets busy, we understand. You can easily cancel or reschedule a lesson through our platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice as per their cancellation policy, which is clearly shown on their profile.
