Siobhan L
Siobhan was excellent and I’m really pleased with how the first session went. She was really well prepared and explained things clearly throughout the lesson. She worked patiently with my son and made him feel at ease, which was great to see as he can be quite shy at first. She asked thoughtful questions and encouraged him to share his ideas, helping to build his confidence as the session went on. Overall, it was a very positive and engaging first lesson. Thanks Siobhan!

asked questions
See all FAQs
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit for your child's personality and learning style. You can read tutor profiles, watch their introduction videos, and check reviews from other parents. Plus, you can message tutors for free before booking to make sure they're the perfect match.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts to worry about.
My child attends Wilmslow High School. Can a tutor tailor lessons to their specific curriculum?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in supporting students with their school's specific curriculum. You can mention your child's school and what they're currently studying when you message a tutor to ensure they can provide the right support.
We're considering entrance exams for schools near Wilmslow. Can we find a specialist?
Yes, many tutors specialise in 11+ or private school entrance exams for schools in the Cheshire area. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in exam preparation to give your child the best possible start.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. With 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 does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has everything your child needs, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe, supportive space where there are no 'silly questions'. A great tutor celebrates small wins and patiently works through challenges, helping your child feel understood and capable, which is often the key to unlocking their confidence.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check and has been personally interviewed by our team to ensure they are a trusted and high-quality educator.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to help you see how your child is getting on. You can also chat with your tutor at any time through our messaging system to discuss their progress and goals for upcoming lessons.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we offer fantastic support for academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language, we have a tutor who can help.
How long are the lessons and how often should they be?
Most lessons are one hour long, and most families find that one session a week works best. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange lesson length and frequency directly with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
Life happens, and we understand that. You can easily cancel or reschedule a lesson with your tutor. We just ask that you give them at least 12 hours' notice to avoid being charged for the session.
