Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child hopes to apply to the University of Nottingham. Can a tutor help with that?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have experience helping students with the analytical and essay-writing skills needed for applications to top Russell Group universities like Nottingham. They can help your child refine their personal statement and build the academic confidence to succeed at a higher level.

We're aiming for a competitive sixth form. Can a tutor help my child secure a top GCSE grade?

Yes, our tutors are brilliant at helping students aim high. They can focus specifically on the GCSE English curriculum, helping your child master key texts and exam techniques. We know how important those grades are for entry into sought-after sixth forms, and our data shows tutoring can help improve a student's GCSE results by up to two grades.

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

It's easy to find a great match. You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their teaching style. You can also message tutors beforehand to discuss your child's specific needs before booking a lesson.

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

Your peace of mind is our priority. We have a first lesson guarantee, so 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 English tutor in Nottinghamshire cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, which typically range from £20 to £45 per hour, depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can see the price clearly on each tutor's profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.

How do online lessons work?

Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.

Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?

Yes, your child's safety is incredibly important to us. All our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, which includes identity and background checks, before they can teach on our platform.

How can tutoring help my child build confidence?

One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space for your child to ask questions they might be hesitant to ask in a busy classroom. When a friendly, expert tutor gives them their full attention, it helps them overcome learning blocks and celebrate small wins, which can make a huge difference to their self-belief.

What results can we expect from tutoring?

Every child's journey is unique, but the results are overwhelmingly positive. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. More importantly, many parents tell us they see a big boost in their child's confidence and enjoyment of a subject.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one hour-long session per week is ideal for consistent progress. However, the schedule is completely flexible. You can arrange more frequent lessons during exam periods or less frequent top-up sessions as needed, all in discussion with your tutor.

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

We offer tutoring in a huge range of subjects and skills, well beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to code in Python, play the guitar, master a new language, or get help with their university degree, you can find an expert tutor to help.

How do I pay for lessons?

Payments are simple and secure. Once a lesson is complete, your payment is automatically processed through the platform using your saved card details. You don't have to worry about cash, and you'll always have a clear record of your lessons and payments.
