The Right German Support, Tailored to Your Child
The best tutors understand that every child learns differently. That's why our tutors take the time to get to know your child, their learning style, and their specific goals. This personal connection helps build trust and makes learning feel less like a chore and more like a conversation. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the very best. Every single lesson is planned around your child. If they need to prepare for an upcoming oral exam, the session will focus on conversational practice. If they're finding a particular area of grammar tricky, their tutor can create exercises to help it all click into place. This focused approach is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Finding the right support shouldn't add to your busy schedule. With our online platform, you can connect with the perfect German tutor without leaving your home in Kendal. Lessons are flexible and can be booked at times that work for your family, whether it's after school, on a weekend, or during the holidays.

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
How do I choose the right German tutor for my child?
It's a really personal choice. We recommend watching tutors' intro videos, reading their bios, and looking at reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ask about their experience and teaching style to find the perfect fit for your child.
How much does an online German tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study, giving you plenty of options to find great support that fits your family's budget.
My child attends Kirkbie Kendal School. Can we find a tutor who understands their curriculum?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have extensive experience with specific exam boards and school curricula like AQA and Edexcel for GCSE and A-Level German. You can message a tutor before booking to ask about their familiarity with your child's specific course.
We live in a village outside Kendal. Is online tutoring a good choice for us?
Yes, it's a perfect solution. Online tutoring means you're not limited by your location. You can access the best tutors from across the UK, right from your home, without worrying about travel. All you need is a stable internet connection.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking German?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe and encouraging space for your child to practise speaking without the pressure of a classroom. Tutors can work on pronunciation, fluency, and conversational skills, helping your child feel much more comfortable and confident.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Lessons are typically one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to see what works best for your child.
Are your tutors background checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single UK-based tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring your child is in safe, expert hands.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. You just need a computer or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a good internet connection. Our online classroom has everything your child needs, including an interactive whiteboard, so there's no complex software to install.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we help thousands of students with academic subjects, we also have amazing tutors for hobbies and personal development. Whether your child wants to learn guitar, master coding, or even learn a new craft, you can find an expert tutor right here.
How often should my child have a lesson?
This completely depends on your child's goals. Most families find that one session a week is ideal for steady progress, but you can arrange more frequent lessons during exam periods or less frequent ones for general support. It's completely flexible.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Yes. You can message your tutor at any time to get feedback on how your child is doing. Many tutors provide regular updates on what was covered in the lesson and the progress being made, so you're always kept in the loop.
