Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the Kent Test. Can I find a tutor with experience in this?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience helping children prepare for the 11+ and the Kent Test. You can check their profiles for details and even send them a message before booking to discuss your child's specific needs in comprehension and creative writing.
We're hoping for a place at Gravesend Grammar School. Can a tutor help with that goal?
Yes. While we can't guarantee a place, our tutors can provide targeted support to help your child build the skills and confidence needed for competitive entrance exams. A tutor can create a learning plan focused on the specific requirements of the Kent Test to give your child the best possible chance of success.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can filter tutors by subject and level, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to chat about your child's goals before you book.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has the time and space to ask questions without feeling shy. Tutors can break down difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and adapt their teaching style to how your child learns best, which helps build their self-belief.
Can tutoring really help my child's GCSE English grade?
Yes, it can make a real difference. Our data shows that one-to-one support can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to two grades. Tutors can focus on specific areas, from exam technique to understanding core texts, giving your child the targeted help they need to achieve their best.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is important. 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.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is simple and easy to use. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space to share documents. Your child and their tutor can work through problems together in real-time, just as they would in person. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How long are the lessons and how often should my child have them?
Most lessons are one hour long, which we find is perfect for keeping students engaged. Most families choose to have one lesson per week, but the schedule is completely flexible. You and your tutor can agree on a frequency that works best for your child and your family's routine.
What happens in a typical online English lesson?
Every lesson is tailored to your child. A session might start with a quick chat about what they've been doing in school, followed by work on a specific area they find tricky, like analysing poetry or structuring an essay. The tutor will use the interactive whiteboard to explain concepts and work through examples together.
Do you only offer tutoring for academic subjects?
Not at all! While we have thousands of expert tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have talented tutors who can teach your child practical and creative skills like coding, learning the guitar, public speaking, and much more.
