asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for Brockenhurst College. Can a tutor help them secure a top GCSE French grade for their application?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are specialists in preparing students for GCSEs. They can focus on the specific curriculum your child's school follows, helping them master exam technique and build the confidence needed to achieve a grade that strengthens their college application.
We're thinking about universities like Southampton or Bristol. How can a French tutor strengthen my child's application?
A strong grade in a language like French is highly valued by Russell Group universities. A tutor can help your child develop a deeper understanding of the subject, which not only boosts their grade but also prepares them for the analytical skills required in higher education, making their university application stand out.
How do I choose the right French tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. We recommend sending messages to a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking your first session.
What if my child doesn't click with their first French tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do online lessons work?
Our lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, making it easy for your child to collaborate with their tutor just as they would in person.
How much does online French tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How do you make sure tutors are safe to work with my child?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has been through a rigorous selection process, and we verify their identity and qualifications. They must also have a valid DBS background check before they can teach on our platform.
My child has lost confidence in French. How can a tutor help?
This is very common, and it's where one-to-one tutoring can make a huge difference. A tutor provides a safe, patient, and encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild that lost confidence.
How often should my child have a French lesson?
Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely up to you. You might want to increase sessions in the run-up to an exam or have them less often for general support. You can discuss what’s best with your chosen tutor.
How effective is online tutoring?
It's very effective! Online tutoring provides focused, one-to-one attention that can be difficult to get in a busy classroom. With 90% of our students improving by at least one grade, you can be sure your child is getting the dedicated support they need to succeed.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something different, like guitar or coding?
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, learn a new language for fun, or develop their public speaking skills, we have expert tutors who can help.
How do you make sure tutors are safe to work with my child?
The first lesson is usually a chance for the tutor to get to know your child. They'll chat about their strengths, weaknesses, and what they want to achieve. It's a relaxed session designed to build rapport and create a tailored learning plan for future lessons.
