Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're aiming for a place at a competitive school like NLCS or Habs. Can a tutor help?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors have specific experience helping students prepare for entrance exams and scholarship papers for top independent and grammar schools. You can read their profiles and message them before booking to find someone who understands the high standards required.
My child is hoping to apply to LSE or UCL. Can a tutor help them achieve the A-Level French grade they need?
Yes. Our A-Level tutors are experts in their subject and can provide the focused support your child needs to aim for an A or A*. They can help deepen your child's understanding of the curriculum and hone their exam technique to help strengthen their university application.
How do I choose the best French tutor for my child?
The best way is to read tutor profiles, check their qualifications, experience, and reviews from other parents. Many tutors offer a short introductory chat before you book, which is a great way to see if their personality and teaching style are a good fit for your child.
How much do online French tutors cost?
The price of our French tutors varies depending on their experience and qualifications, but you can easily filter by price to find someone who fits your budget. All pricing is shown clearly on each tutor's profile with no hidden costs.
What happens if we don't get on with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 do you check your tutors?
We take safety and quality very seriously. Every tutor is background-checked and we interview every applicant to ensure they have the right experience and passion for teaching. We're proud to be picky, and only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply is accepted onto our platform.
My child's confidence in French is low. How can a tutor help with that?
Confidence is key. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Tutors are brilliant at breaking down difficult topics, celebrating small wins, and helping your child see their own progress, which is often the biggest confidence booster of all.
Can tutoring really improve my child's GCSE French grade?
Yes, it can make a significant difference. Our data shows that one-to-one tutoring can help improve a child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades. The focused attention on their specific problem areas is incredibly effective.
How do online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for them to learn from the comfort of home.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week is the perfect amount to build momentum and make steady progress. However, you can arrange lessons as often as you like, and many students increase the frequency in the run-up to exams.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we cover all academic areas from Maths to French, we also have expert tutors who can teach practical and creative skills like coding, learning the guitar, or even public speaking.
My child's confidence in French is low. How can a tutor help with that?
Our tutors provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message your tutor at any time to ask questions or discuss their progress. Seeing your child's confidence grow and their test scores improve is often the clearest sign.
