Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to a college in Hull like Wyke or Wilberforce. Can a tutor help?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students achieve the specific GCSE grades needed for college applications. They can focus on the exam board your child's school uses and build a plan to help them secure the pass they need for their chosen A-Level courses.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message them to ask questions before booking. We recommend finding someone your child will connect with, who has experience in the specific area they need help with, like GCSE exam preparation.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed by our team and must pass a background check before they can teach on our platform. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to find the perfect match for your child. 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.
We live in Withernsea. Does my child's tutor need to be local?
Not at all. Because all our lessons are online, your child can connect with the very best English specialists from anywhere in the UK. This gives you a much wider choice of experts than you would find locally, ensuring you can find the perfect fit for your child's needs.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but typically range from £20 to £45 per hour. Tutors set their own rates, and you can easily filter by price to find someone who fits your budget.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe space for your child to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A tutor can break down difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and show them they are capable of succeeding, which can make a huge difference to their self-esteem.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s easy to use and designed to make lessons engaging and effective. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How long will it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our goal is to make progress from the very first session. Many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence quickly. For academic results, 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade.
Can a tutor help with a specific text, like Shakespeare?
Definitely. Our English tutors can provide focused support on any area of the curriculum, whether it's understanding the language in 'Romeo and Juliet', analysing poetry, or mastering grammar for the English Language paper.
Do you offer tutoring for skills beyond school subjects?
Absolutely. Alongside core subjects like English and Maths, you can find brilliant tutors for everything from learning the guitar and new languages to coding in Python. It's a great way for your child to explore new hobbies and skills.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first session is usually a chance for the tutor to get to know your child, understand their strengths and weaknesses, and discuss their goals. It's a relaxed way to build a rapport and create a plan for future lessons.
