Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at a grammar school in Royal Tunbridge Wells. Can a tutor keep up with the demanding curriculum?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in supporting students in high-achieving environments. They can tailor lessons to match the specific pace and topics of your child's school curriculum, helping them fill any gaps and even get ahead.
We're worried a weak French GCSE will limit their A-Level choices. Can a tutor help with this?
Yes, this is a common concern we help with. A tutor can focus on strengthening the core areas of French needed to achieve a strong GCSE grade. This not only boosts their confidence but also keeps their options open for A-Levels and beyond.
What if my child doesn't click with their first French tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. If you don't get on with your first 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 do I find the right French tutor for my child?
You can use our search filters to find tutors based on their experience, price, and availability. Reading their profiles and reviews from other parents is a great way to get a feel for their teaching style. You can also message tutors before booking to ask any specific questions.
How much do online French tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience. You can see the price per hour clearly on each tutor's profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is ID and background-checked with an enhanced DBS check. We are very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking French?
This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. A tutor creates a safe, encouraging space for your child to practise speaking without fear of making mistakes in front of a class. They can role-play scenarios and build fluency in a way that feels supportive and fun.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs: video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a simple and effective way to learn from the comfort of your home, and all lessons are recorded so your child can review them anytime.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child is different, but consistent support makes a real difference. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve their academic results by at least one grade.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills like coding or playing the guitar?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we're here to help with academic subjects from primary school to university, we also have talented tutors who can teach hobbies and professional skills, from music and art to coding and public speaking.
How many lessons a week would you recommend?
Most families start with one hour-long session per week. This provides consistent support without overwhelming your child's schedule. You can always discuss the right frequency with your chosen tutor, who will be happy to recommend a plan based on your child's goals.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking French?
The first lesson is usually a chance for the tutor to get to know your child and understand their learning style, strengths, and the areas they find tricky. They'll work together to set some goals, making sure your child feels comfortable and positive about their learning.
