Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends Ysgol Uwchradd Caergybi. Can we find a tutor familiar with the WJEC syllabus?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors have extensive experience with the WJEC (Welsh Board) curriculum for GCSE English Language and Literature. You can check a tutor's profile for their specific experience or ask them directly in a message before you book.
Can a tutor help my child with their application for A-Levels at Coleg Menai?
Yes. A strong GCSE in English is often a requirement for A-Level courses. Our tutors can help your child secure the grades they need. They can also assist with building the analytical and communication skills that will help them succeed in their A-Level studies and interviews.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I pick the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking a session. It helps you get a feel for their approach.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. You can filter your search by price to find an excellent tutor who fits your budget.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a background check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Tutors create a supportive space where mistakes are seen as learning opportunities, helping your child feel more positive and capable in their abilities.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
How quickly will we see an improvement in our child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach gets results. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The key is consistent, focused support on the areas where your child needs it most.
Can we get help specifically for GCSE English Language and Literature?
Of course. These are two of our most popular subjects. Our tutors can help with everything from analysing poetry and plays for Literature to mastering grammar and persuasive writing for Language. You can find a tutor who specialises in the exact area your child needs help with.
Is tutoring only for core subjects like English, or can you help with other interests?
While we have fantastic tutors for core academic subjects, we also offer lessons in a huge range of other areas. From learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding, there's a tutor for almost any interest.
What makes Tutorful different from other tutoring services?
We focus on finding the perfect match for your child. With our detailed profiles, video introductions, and messaging system, you're in control. It's an approach trusted by thousands of families, reflected in our 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 customer reviews.
