It develops strong communication and analytical skills, whether your child is dissecting Kafka or practising conversational skills. These abilities are valuable in many careers, from international business to engineering, giving your child a real advantage.

Mara F
I've been learning German with Mara for around 2 months having used language apps prior to this.
Mara quickly grasped my level, identifying my weaknesses whilst also taking onboard my overall aspirations and what I hoped to achieve from tutoring.
Throughout my lessons, she has both requested and listened to my feedback regarding lesson structure, which are tailored to my preferences making them engaging and enjoyable.
Mara's traditional approach has improved my understanding of fundamental German language concepts which I hope to build on in the future.
In addition to the above, Mara is flexible with her schedule and very responsive outside of lesson time.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a place at Cardiff University. Can a tutor help with this?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with their university applications. They can help your child strengthen their German skills to meet the entry requirements for competitive courses at Russell Group universities like Cardiff University, and can also offer support with personal statement writing.
The German curriculum at my child's school in Cardiff seems particularly tough. Can a tutor align with it?
Yes. Our tutors create personalised learning plans tailored to your child's specific needs and the curriculum they are following. They can work with your child's school materials to reinforce what's being taught in class, helping them overcome any specific challenges they face with the German syllabus at their Cardiff school.
What if my child doesn't click with their first German tutor?
We want to make sure it's the perfect fit. If for any reason you and your child 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. It's really important to us that your child feels comfortable and supported.
How do I choose the right German tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. This helps you get a feel for their teaching style and personality. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's needs and ensure they're the right fit.
How much do online German tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can see the price per hour clearly listed on each tutor's profile, allowing you to find an expert German tutor who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in German?
Confidence often comes from understanding. When a tutor breaks down difficult concepts, like German word order or verb conjugations, into manageable steps, your child starts to feel more in control. This one-to-one encouragement and personalised praise for their progress can make a huge difference.
Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked using an enhanced DBS check. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, so you can be sure your child is learning from a trusted and vetted professional.
Can a tutor help with both GCSE and A-Level German?
Yes, many of our tutors are experienced in teaching German at all levels, from beginners right through to GCSE and A-Level. They understand the specific demands of the exam boards and can help your child build the skills and knowledge needed to achieve their target grades.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a secure and engaging environment designed to make learning online feel just as effective as being in the same room.
How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?
Very quickly! You can browse tutors, send messages, and book your first session in just a few clicks. Many parents are able to find the perfect tutor and have their first lesson scheduled within 24 hours.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most lessons are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your tutor to fit your child's schedule and concentration span.
Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we're here to help with academic work like German, Maths, and English, we also have brilliant tutors who can teach practical and creative skills like coding, playing the guitar, or even learning a new language for fun.
