asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a highly competitive sixth form like Harris Westminster. Can a tutor help?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors can provide targeted support to help your child aim for the top grades (8/9) often required for these institutions. They can focus on advanced exam techniques, critical analysis, and building the confidence needed to perform well under pressure.
We're thinking ahead to university applications for places like LSE or King's. How can an English tutor support this?
Strong communication and analytical skills are vital for applications to top universities. An English tutor can help your child refine their personal statement, develop sophisticated essay writing skills, and build a strong foundation for the demands of a competitive degree course.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send them a message to discuss your child's needs before booking. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute chat to ensure they are the perfect fit for your family.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 one of our tutors has been through an enhanced DBS check and has had their ID and qualifications verified. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a convenient and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which are displayed on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study, so you can find an experienced, affordable tutor who fits your budget.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe, supportive space for your child to ask questions without the fear of being judged by their peers. This personalised attention helps them understand tricky topics, which in turn builds their self-belief and encourages them to participate more in class.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that a one-hour lesson each week is ideal for consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be arranged with your tutor to fit your child's needs, whether it's for regular support or a boost before an exam.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We have expert tutors for a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to code in Python, play the guitar, or speak a new language, you can find a brilliant tutor to help them explore their passions.
How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?
You can find and book a tutor very quickly. Many of our tutors respond to messages within a few hours, and you could have your first lesson arranged for as early as this week, depending on your and the tutor's availability.
What results can we expect from tutoring?
While every child's journey is unique, our data shows that tutoring makes a real difference. In fact, 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one academic grade. We're proud to have helped over 200,000 students achieve their goals.
