asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is preparing for the Gloucestershire 11+, can a tutor help?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience with the 11+ entrance exams. They can help your child build a stronger vocabulary, improve their reading comprehension, and work through practice papers to build their confidence ahead of the test.

We're aiming for a place at a grammar school like Pates'. Can I find a specialist tutor?

Yes, you can. When searching, you can read tutor profiles to see their specific experience, including helping students prepare for competitive grammar school entrance exams. You can even message tutors before booking to ask about their approach to 11+ preparation.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

Start by reading their profiles and reviews from other parents. Many tutors have a short introductory video to give you a sense of their teaching style. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking your first session.

How much does an 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, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.

Can tutoring really help my child's confidence?

Yes, it's one of the biggest benefits we see. In a one-to-one setting, your child gets the focused attention they need. Tutors create a positive, encouraging environment where mistakes are just part of learning, which helps your child feel more capable and confident in their abilities.

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has to pass a rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best and is in safe hands.

How often should my child have a lesson?

This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Many families start with one session a week, but you can arrange lessons as often as you need. You can discuss the best approach with your chosen tutor.

Do you only offer academic subjects?

Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have experts who can teach your child skills like coding, learning a musical instrument like the guitar, or even a new language.
