Helping Your Child's University Application Stand Out with French
French isn't just another subject; it's what leading universities call a 'facilitating subject'. A strong grade at GCSE or A-Level shows admissions tutors that your child has sharp analytical and communication skills. It proves they can do more than just conjugate verbs – they can confidently analyse French literature, structure a compelling argument, and understand complex cultural contexts. These are the skills that open doors to the most competitive courses and future careers.

My family and I have now returned to the UKafter more than 12 years of living and working in Paris. In fact, both my children were born in Paris.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at a competitive Gloucestershire grammar school. Can a tutor help them stand out?
Absolutely. In a high-achieving environment, the difference between grades can be very small. A private tutor can focus on the specific skills needed to turn a strong performance into an exceptional one, helping your child refine their exam technique and deepen their subject knowledge to secure the top marks.
We're aiming for a top Russell Group university. How can a French tutor strengthen my child's application?
A top grade in a facilitating subject like French demonstrates academic rigour and a valuable skillset to admissions tutors. A tutor can help your child achieve a grade that significantly strengthens their UCAS application, showing they have the dedication and ability to thrive on a demanding degree course.
How do I choose the right French tutor for my child?
It's a great question. You can view detailed tutor profiles, which include their experience, qualifications, and teaching style. Reading reviews from other parents is also incredibly helpful. We recommend watching their introductory videos and messaging a few to find the perfect personality match for your child.
How much does online French tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £20 to £50 per hour, depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can see the price clearly on each tutor's profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is for your child's learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How can a tutor help my child with their confidence in speaking French?
This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. Our online classroom provides a safe, supportive space for your child to practise speaking without the fear of making mistakes in front of a whole class. This regular practice with a fluent speaker is fantastic for building confidence.
How are your tutors vetted?
We take your child's safety and the quality of our teaching very seriously. We interview every tutor and only accept 1 in 8 who apply. All our tutors must have a valid DBS check and provide references, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How do the online lessons work?
They take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents and past papers. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor to fit your child's needs and schedule.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week works best for consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely up to you. You might want more sessions in the run-up to exams or fewer during school holidays. You can discuss what's best with your tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something else?
While we're well known for academic support, we believe in learning for life! We have expert tutors who can teach a huge range of skills and hobbies, from learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python or even learning a new language just for fun.
How are your tutors vetted?
Of course. Our platform makes it easy to communicate with your child's tutor. You can message them at any time to ask for feedback on your child's progress and discuss the focus of upcoming lessons. It’s a real partnership.
