Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to apply to Farnborough Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help them achieve the required English grade?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students aim for top GCSE grades (7-9). They can focus specifically on the skills and knowledge needed to meet the entry requirements for competitive colleges like Farnborough Sixth Form, building your child's confidence and exam technique.

The local schools like Gordon's and Collingwood are very competitive. How can a tutor help my child keep up?

A personal tutor can provide one-to-one attention that's hard to get in a busy classroom. They can work at your child's pace, reinforcing topics they find tricky and stretching them in areas where they excel, ensuring they feel confident and prepared in a high-achieving school environment.

How do I find the right English tutor for my child in Lightwater?

It's simple. You can use our search filters to find tutors who specialise in your child's level, from KS2 up to A-Level and beyond. You can watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send them a message to discuss your child's needs before booking.

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

We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. 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 do online lessons work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's a secure and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has an up-to-date DBS check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you just pay for the lessons you book.

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

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As they start to master concepts they once found difficult, from algebra to analysing poetry, their self-belief naturally grows.

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

Yes, definitely. Our English tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum. They can provide in-depth support on specific set texts, helping your child to understand characters, themes, and context, and to craft high-scoring essay answers.

How quickly can we expect to see results?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular tutoring. The biggest immediate change parents notice is often a boost in their child's confidence and a more positive attitude towards the subject.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like guitar or coding?

While we have thousands of expert academic tutors, we also believe in learning for life. You can find brilliant tutors for a huge range of skills and hobbies, from learning to play the guitar or piano to mastering coding languages like Python.

How many other families use Tutorful?

You're in good company! We've helped over 200,000 students find the right support, and we're proud to have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews from parents and students just like you.
