Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're preparing for the 11+ for schools like Wirral Grammar. Can I find a specialist tutor?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience helping children prepare for the 11+ exam, including the verbal reasoning and comprehension sections. You can view their profiles to see their expertise and even message them to discuss your child's specific needs before booking.

My child hopes to study at the University of Liverpool. Can a tutor help with their A-Levels and personal statement?

Definitely. Our A-Level English tutors can provide fantastic support, not only with course content and exam technique but also with crafting a compelling UCAS personal statement that stands out. It's a great way to give your child an edge in their university application.

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, level, and price. We recommend reading their profiles and reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors before you book to ask about their experience and approach to ensure they're the right fit for your child.

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

We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. 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 much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits within your family's budget.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a microphone, a camera, and a stable internet connection.

Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has undergone a thorough background check. We are very selective, and only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply is accepted, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How can tutoring help my child feel more confident in English?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has the tutor's full attention. They can ask questions without feeling embarrassed and work at their own pace, filling in any gaps in their knowledge. This personalised support is fantastic for building self-esteem.

My child finds analysing poetry really difficult. Can a tutor help with that?

Yes, this is a perfect example of how a tutor can help. They can break down complex poems, explain literary devices in a simple way, and work through examples with your child until they feel confident tackling analysis on their own.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we have thousands of amazing academic tutors, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. From learning to play the guitar or piano to mastering skills like coding, public speaking, or a new language, there's a tutor for almost any interest.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

The standard lesson length is one hour, which gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without being overwhelming. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor if your child would benefit from a shorter or longer session.

How quickly can we get started with a tutor?

You can get started very quickly. Once you've found a tutor you like, you can message them to arrange your first lesson. Many tutors have availability within a few days, allowing your child to start getting the support they need right away.
