Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to apply to a top London university like UCL or King's. Can a tutor help with that?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors are graduates from top UK universities and have first-hand experience. They can help your child develop the advanced analytical and writing skills needed for a competitive application, work through A-Level texts, and even provide guidance on crafting a compelling personal statement.

We're aiming for a grade 8 or 9 in GCSE English to get into a competitive sixth form near Muswell Hill. Can a tutor help?

Definitely. This is one of the most common goals for parents we work with. Our tutors specialise in helping students move from a good grade to a great one by focusing on exam technique, essay structure, and sophisticated analysis. We know how to help students secure the marks they need to stand out.

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

You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and what other parents have said about them. You can also watch their introductory video to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. Plus, you can send them a message first to discuss your child's needs before booking.

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

We want to make sure it's the perfect fit for your child. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, just 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?

They take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and tools for sharing documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is identity and background-checked, and we interview every single one. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile and use our search filters to find someone who fits your budget, with prices starting from £15 per hour.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?

One-to-one lessons provide a safe space for your child to ask questions they might not feel comfortable asking in a busy classroom. Tutors can break down tricky topics, like Shakespearean language or poetry analysis, and celebrate small wins, which makes a huge difference to their self-belief.

Is tutoring just for academic subjects like English?

We offer tutoring for a huge range of interests! Beyond core subjects, your child can learn anything from coding and guitar to a new language or even music production. It's a great way to support their hobbies and personal development.

How often should my child have a lesson?

It's completely flexible and depends on your child's goals. Many parents find a one-hour lesson each week works well for consistent progress, but you can arrange a schedule that works for your family directly with your chosen tutor.

Yes. Many of our tutors have specific experience and qualifications in supporting students with SEN, including dyslexia. You can check their profile for details or use our search filters to find a specialist who can provide the tailored support your child needs.
