Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the grades needed for Coleg y Cymoedd?
Absolutely. Our tutors specialise in helping students secure the specific grades they need for their next steps. They can focus on the exam board your child's school uses and target the skills needed to move from a C to a B grade or higher, strengthening their college application.
My child hopes to study at Cardiff or Swansea University. Can a tutor help?
Yes. Many of our English tutors have experience helping students prepare for the demands of A-Level study and university applications. They can help your child develop the advanced analytical and essay-writing skills needed to stand out and succeed in higher education.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and see ratings from other parents just like you. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking to ensure you find the perfect match.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. 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 much does online English tuition cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your family's budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are very selective, accepting just 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to our platform.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to upload documents, making it easy for your child and their tutor to work through texts and past papers together.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence?
Confidence is key. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, they help rebuild self-belief one lesson at a time.
Can a tutor help with specific GCSE texts like 'An Inspector Calls'?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors can provide expert, focused support on the specific texts, poems, and plays your child is studying for their GCSEs. They can help them analyse key themes, characters, and quotes to improve their exam performance.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which most families find works perfectly. However, you can arrange longer or shorter sessions directly with your tutor to fit your child's concentration span and your family's schedule.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we're experts in core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have talented tutors who can teach a huge range of other skills, from learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish to coding in Python.
How quickly can we start lessons?
You can get started very quickly. Many of our tutors can offer a lesson within a few days. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to arrange a time, and you can book your first session straight away.
