Watching your child navigate their English GCSEs can be tough, especially in Maghull where the pressure to secure top grades for A-Levels and competitive university places feels very real.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child goes to a comprehensive like Deyes High. Can a tutor help them compete with students from the Sefton grammar schools?

Absolutely. Many parents share this concern. A one-to-one tutor can provide the focused, intensive support needed to master advanced topics and exam techniques, building the skills and confidence your child needs to perform at the highest level and stand out, regardless of which school they attend.

We're hoping for a competitive course at the University of Liverpool. Can a tutor help with the specific essay skills needed?

Yes, this is a perfect goal for tutoring. Our tutors, many of whom are university graduates themselves, can specifically work with your child on developing the critical analysis and sophisticated essay-writing skills that top universities look for, giving them a significant advantage in their A-Levels and university applications.

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

It’s really simple. You can browse our tutors' profiles, watch their introduction videos, and read reviews from other parents. Many tutors offer a free 15-minute chat so you can get to know them and discuss your child's needs before booking a lesson. The best fit is often someone your child connects with personally.

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

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 tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How do the online lessons actually 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 designed to be simple and engaging, allowing your child and their tutor to work together just as they would in person.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £25 to £45 per hour, depending on their experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.

How do you make sure the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed by our team, has their ID and qualifications checked, and undergoes an enhanced DBS background check. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

Can a tutor help if my child's confidence in English is low?

Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the confidence boost it provides. A tutor creates a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of being wrong, helping them build self-belief alongside their subject knowledge.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one hour-long lesson per week is ideal for making consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange more frequent sessions during exam periods or less frequent lessons for general support, whatever works best for your child and your family.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message them at any time to ask questions or discuss how things are going. Seeing your child's confidence grow and their school results improve is often the clearest sign of success.

What equipment do we need for online tutoring?

It's very straightforward. All you need is a laptop or desktop computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. There's no special software to download as everything runs in your web browser.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something different like coding or a musical instrument?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn a new language, master the guitar, get ahead in coding, or even try their hand at chess, we have expert tutors available to help them explore their passions.
