Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is at a competitive Milton Keynes school like Denbigh or Ousedale. Can a tutor help them aim for a top GCSE grade?

Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students aim for the highest grades. They can create a focused plan to tackle the specific demands of the GCSE English curriculum, helping your child build the skills and exam technique needed to secure a grade 6, 7, or higher.

With the influence of the Buckinghamshire grammar schools nearby, standards feel very high. Can a tutor help my child keep up?

Yes, we understand that local competition can create pressure. A tutor provides a supportive, one-to-one environment where your child can work at their own pace, fill in any knowledge gaps, and build the confidence to keep up and feel positive about their abilities in a competitive academic landscape.

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

You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.

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

We know that the right fit is crucial for success. 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 much does an online English tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own prices based on their experience, typically ranging from £25 to £50 per hour. You can filter your search by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.

Can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?

Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. In a private lesson, your child can ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. This personalised support and encouragement often leads to a huge boost in their self-belief.

How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is ID and background-checked. We also have a strict selection process and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from the very best.

How can a tutor specifically help with GCSE English?

A tutor can focus on exactly what your child needs for their GCSEs, whether it's analysing poetry, structuring essays, or perfecting exam technique. This targeted support is proven to work – we can help students improve their final results by up to two grades.

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 the ability to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you in the loop. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's progress and see how they are getting on.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?

While we're experts in academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have brilliant tutors for a whole range of other skills! From learning to play the guitar or piano to getting started with coding, there's a tutor for almost any interest.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most of our students have one lesson per week as it provides consistency and builds momentum. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be arranged with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.
