Why A-Level French Can Open Doors for Your Child
A strong A-Level in a modern language like French is highly valued by the UK's top universities, including competitive London institutions like UCL and King's. It shows admission tutors that your child has sharp analytical skills and is a great communicator. It’s about more than just memorising vocabulary; it's about your child developing the confidence to discuss French literature, analyse complex grammar, and form compelling arguments—skills that will set them apart.

Lina H
Professional and inspiring French and English tutor
Maths is usually the subject students struggle with most at school mainly due to the lack of individual help during lessons. Students often don’t ask for help when faced with a topic they find hard and so they develop gaps in their learning, which in itself become problematic later on. In my opinion the first objective of private tutoring in maths should be to systematically deal with those gaps, which are usually identified within the first couple of lessons. Once the gaps are covered, we can then proceed to cover the necessary course material based on individual requirements.I have extensive e...

asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a competitive sixth form in North-East London. Can a tutor help?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors can help solidify your child's GCSE knowledge to ensure they achieve the grades needed for entry. More importantly, they can start introducing A-Level concepts and study skills, making the transition to a demanding sixth form environment feel much less daunting.
Can a tutor help prepare my child for a French A-Level for a UCL or King's application?
Definitely. Top universities look for more than just good grades. A tutor can help your child develop a deeper, more nuanced understanding of the language and its culture. This helps them build the confidence and knowledge to excel in exams and write a personal statement that truly stands out.
How do I choose the right French tutor for my child?
The best way is to look through the tutor profiles. You can see their experience, qualifications, and what other parents have said about them. We recommend messaging a few tutors to find someone your child will get on with. You can also book a video chat to get to know them before committing to a lesson.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first 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, just 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 cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically ranging from £25 to £50 depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can use the filters on our search page to find a highly-rated tutor who fits your family's budget.

It's simple and effective. Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. It has all the tools your child needs for a productive and engaging one-to-one lesson, all from the comfort of your home.

Our tutors have a wide range of qualifications and experience, from qualified teachers to university academics and native speakers. We vet every single tutor and check their background, and you can see all their credentials clearly listed on their profile.

Not at all! While we support thousands of students with academic subjects from primary school to university, we also have expert tutors for hobbies and professional skills. Whether your child wants to learn guitar, coding, or even public speaking, we can help.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find a one-hour session per week works best, especially in the run-up to exams. However, it's completely flexible. You can discuss your child's goals with your tutor and agree on a schedule that works for you.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
The standard lesson length is one hour. This gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. Some tutors offer longer or shorter sessions, which you can see on their profile.
My child has lost their confidence with French. Can a tutor help with that?
Life happens, and we understand that. Our platform makes it easy to manage your schedule. You can cancel or reschedule a lesson with your tutor, usually up to 24 hours beforehand, without any charge. Please check your tutor's individual cancellation policy on their profile.
