Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're aiming for a place at a competitive Solihull school. Can we find a tutor with relevant experience?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students prepare for entry into specific schools. You can view each tutor's profile to see their background and expertise, and even message them before booking to discuss your child's specific goals.
My child is hoping to apply to the University of Warwick or Birmingham. Can a tutor help with this?
Yes. A strong grade in a language like French can significantly strengthen a university application. Our A-Level tutors can help your child master their subject content, refine their exam technique, and build the confidence needed to secure a place at a top university.
How do I choose the right French tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can filter tutors by subject, level, and price. Every tutor has a detailed profile with a video, student reviews, and their qualifications, so you can get a real sense of their personality and teaching style before you book.
What if my child doesn't click with their first French tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. 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 French tutor in Solihull cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. You can easily filter your search to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
Can a tutor help my child with their confidence in speaking French?
Definitely. One-to-one lessons provide a safe and encouraging environment for your child to practise speaking without the fear of making mistakes in front of a whole class. This is often one of the biggest benefits parents see in their child.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are ID and background-checked. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
My child is really struggling with French grammar. Can a tutor focus just on that?
Of course. The beauty of one-to-one tutoring is that every lesson is completely tailored to your child's needs. If grammar is the main hurdle, their tutor can create a specific plan to tackle it, using methods that work for your child.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to both you and your child. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss their progress and goals. Many parents tell us they see a noticeable increase in their child's confidence and engagement with the subject after just a few sessions.
How long are the lessons and how often should we have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long, and most students have one session per week. However, this is completely flexible. You can discuss what works best for your child's learning needs and your family's schedule directly with your chosen tutor.
Can a tutor help my child with their confidence in speaking French?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new craft, you can find expert tutors to help them explore their passions.
