Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
The schools in Hertfordshire are so competitive. Can a tutor help my child aim for top grades (7-9) in GCSE English?
Absolutely. This is exactly where a specialist tutor can help. They can focus specifically on the exam board your child is studying, working on advanced analysis and essay-writing skills needed for the highest grades. In fact, we often see students improve their GCSE results by up to two grades with tailored support.
My child wants to study essay-based A-Levels. How can an English tutor help secure the GCSE grades they need for sixth form?
A dedicated English tutor can help your child master the core skills that sixth forms look for. They will focus on critical thinking, structuring powerful arguments, and writing with clarity – all essential for A-Levels like History, Politics, or Law. This targeted support is designed to help them get the grades they need to take their preferred subjects.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit for your child's personality and learning needs. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking a lesson.
What if my child doesn't click with their first English tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much do online English tutors in Hemel Hempstead cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. Your child just needs a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help build my child's confidence?
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. Tutors celebrate small wins and break down big topics into manageable steps, which helps your child see their own progress and feel much more capable.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced DBS check and been personally interviewed by our team. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform.
What's the difference between English Language and English Literature tutoring?
While there is some overlap, they focus on different areas. English Language tutoring typically covers grammar, creative writing, and analysing non-fiction texts. English Literature focuses on studying set texts like novels, plays, and poetry, helping your child to develop their analysis and interpretation skills.
How long will it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our students often start to feel more confident after just a few sessions. Consistent weekly lessons are the best way to build momentum and work towards achieving those target grades.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Beyond core academics, your child can learn practical skills like coding or a new language, explore creative passions like playing the guitar or singing, and even get support for university applications.
How do I pay for lessons?
Payments are simple and secure. Once a lesson is complete, your payment is automatically processed through our platform using your registered card details. You'll never need to handle cash, and you can easily track all your payments in your account.
