Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends the Lycée Français Charles de Gaulle. Can I find a tutor familiar with the French Baccalaureate?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our French tutors are experienced with various curricula, including the French Baccalaureate. You can check each tutor's profile for their specific experience or use our search filters to find someone who has helped students with the same qualifications as your child.
We're worried our child's French needs to be fluent for international universities. Can a tutor help with this?
This is a common goal for many parents, and our tutors can certainly help. They can work with your child on advanced conversational skills, cultural understanding, and idiomatic language that goes far beyond the school curriculum, building the genuine fluency and confidence needed for applications and interviews.
How do I choose the right French tutor for my child?
The best way is to watch tutors' introductory videos, read their bios, and check reviews from other parents. You can message them before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and goals. Finding someone your child connects with is key to their success.
How much do online French tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £25 to £55 per hour, depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can see the price clearly on every tutor's profile, so you can find someone brilliant who fits your budget.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking French?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe, supportive space for your child to practise speaking without the fear of making mistakes in front of a class. Our tutors are experts at encouraging conversation, gently correcting pronunciation, and building the self-belief your child needs to speak fluently.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check and has been personally interviewed by our team. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply.
What if we don't get on with the first tutor we choose?
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.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a 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.
My child is preparing for their French GCSEs. How can you help?
Our tutors are brilliant at helping students prepare for exams. They can create a tailored revision plan, focus on tricky topics like grammar or tenses, and work on exam techniques to help your child feel calm and prepared. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
How long are the sessions and how often should my child have them?
Most sessions are one hour long. We generally find that a regular weekly lesson is the most effective way for your child to build momentum and make consistent progress, but you can arrange a schedule that works best for your family with your chosen tutor.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring for a huge range of subjects and skills beyond the core academic curriculum. From learning to play the guitar or piano to mastering new skills like coding, there's a talented tutor on Tutorful ready to help your child explore their passions.
What if we don't get on with the first tutor we choose?
Life happens, and we understand that. You can easily cancel or reschedule a lesson through the platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 12 hours' notice to avoid being charged for the session, as this is part of their fair cancellation policy.
