One-to-One French Tutoring, Tailored to Your Child's Goals
Finding the right person to support your child is so important. We get it. That's why we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring they are not only subject experts but also brilliant, background-checked communicators. Your child's tutor will take the time to understand exactly where they're struggling – whether it’s conjugating verbs or analysing French literature – and build a supportive relationship that helps them thrive. Every 60-minute online lesson is built around your child. If they need to prepare for their National 5 speaking exam, the session will focus on that. If they're finding a specific tense tricky, the tutor can spend the whole time clarifying it. This focused approach is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade – it's learning designed for them, and only them. Juggling school, clubs, and family life in Greater Glasgow is busy enough. Online tutoring fits around your schedule. You can find the perfect French tutor for your child and book lessons for evenings or weekends, all from the comfort of your own home. No travel, no fuss – just effective, convenient support when you need it.

My son who is in year 8 was really struggling with French so I set about finding a kind, calm and effective tutor to bolster his confidence and to enjoy learning a language.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to study at the University of Glasgow. Can a tutor help with the specific French requirements for their application?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students prepare for university applications. They can help your child hone the specific language skills needed to meet the entry requirements for competitive courses at institutions like the University of Glasgow and Strathclyde, ensuring their application is as strong as it can be.
We live near one of the top-performing schools in Greater Glasgow. Can we find a tutor experienced with the National 5 and Higher curriculum?
Yes. You can filter tutors by their experience with the Scottish curriculum, including National 5 and Higher levels. Many of our tutors have successfully helped students from across Greater Glasgow navigate these exact qualifications, helping them build the confidence and knowledge to achieve their target grades.
How do I choose the right French tutor for my child?
You can read detailed profiles for each tutor, which include their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents just like you. Many tutors also offer a short introductory chat, which is a great way for you and your child to get a feel for their teaching style before booking a lesson.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
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 for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does online French tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience, typically ranging from £25 to £50. You can see the price clearly on each tutor's profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or extra costs.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough vetting process, which includes an identity check and a background check through the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS).
My child has lost all their confidence in French. How can a tutor help with that?
This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us, and it's where one-to-one tutoring really shines. A tutor provides a safe, patient space where your child can ask questions without fear of being judged. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, they can rebuild that self-belief, step by step.
How can I be sure online tutoring is as effective as in-person?
We find it's even more effective! Our online classroom has interactive tools like a whiteboard, file sharing, and video chat, making lessons engaging and collaborative. Plus, with no travel time, it's easier to fit high-quality, focused learning into a busy week. The 200,000+ happy students who've used Tutorful agree!
How long are the lessons and how often should my child have them?
Lessons are typically 60 minutes long. Most parents find that a weekly session works best to build momentum and keep learning consistent, but the frequency is completely up to you and can be arranged directly with your tutor to fit your family's schedule.
What tools are used in the online classroom?
Our online classroom is designed to make learning simple and effective. It includes a video call function so your child and the tutor can see and hear each other, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a tool for sharing documents like past papers or essays.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or could my child also learn something like guitar or coding?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we're here to help your child excel in academic subjects like French, Maths, or English, we also have amazing tutors who can teach them practical and creative skills like coding, playing the guitar, or even learning a new language for fun.
My child has lost all their confidence in French. How can a tutor help with that?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress after each session. You can also message your tutor at any time through the platform to ask questions or discuss how things are going. It’s a partnership between you, your child, and their tutor.
