Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is preparing for the 11+ for Poole Grammar. Can a tutor help?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation. They can help your child build confidence with comprehension, expand their vocabulary, and master the specific exam techniques needed for the entrance exams for local grammar schools like Poole and Parkstone.

We're hoping for a place at a competitive university like Southampton. Can a tutor help with A-Levels?

Yes, we have many specialist A-Level English tutors who can support your child with the step up from GCSE. They can help with everything from detailed text analysis to writing high-scoring essays and even provide guidance on crafting a compelling university personal statement.

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

It's a personal choice, and we make it easy. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.

How much does an online English tutor in Poole cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, so there's a wide range to suit different budgets. Prices typically start from around £22 per hour. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, so there are no surprises.

How do you make sure the tutors are safe?

Your child's safety is our absolute priority. Every single one of our tutors has been through a rigorous selection process, including an identity and background check. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring your child is in safe, expert hands.

How can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence in English?

This is one of the most powerful benefits of one-to-one tuition. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to work at their own pace. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild your child's self-belief and rediscover a love for the subject.

What happens in a typical online lesson?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for an engaging lesson, including a shared whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. A tutor might use the whiteboard to break down a poem, work through exam questions together, or collaboratively edit an essay in real-time.

Is it just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we're experts in academic subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also have talented tutors who can teach a huge range of other skills. From learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to coding in Python, there's a tutor for almost any interest.

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

We know how important the right fit is. 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 many lessons will my child need?

There's no set rule – it completely depends on your child's goals. Some students have a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others have regular weekly lessons to build their skills over time. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.

Do I have to commit to a block of lessons?

No, there are no contracts or commitments. You can book lessons one at a time or schedule a regular slot with your tutor – whatever works best for your family. It's completely flexible.

My child's GCSE English grades are a real worry. Can a tutor really help?

Yes, they can make a significant difference. The focused, one-to-one support can help target the exact areas your child finds difficult. In fact, our data shows that we can help improve a child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades, opening up more opportunities for their A-Level choices.
