How German Can Strengthen Your Child's University Application
Choosing a language like German shows top universities that your child is a well-rounded and capable candidate. It's what's known as a 'facilitating subject' – one that's highly respected by Russell Group universities, including the University of Nottingham. Beyond just learning grammar rules, studying German develops critical thinking and communication skills. Whether they're analysing a piece of German literature for their A-Level or building the confidence to hold a conversation, these are the skills that will help them excel in their degree and future career.

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
Can a tutor help strengthen my child's UCAS application for a competitive course at the University of Nottingham?
Absolutely. While tutors don't write the application, they play a crucial role in helping your child achieve the high grades needed. By building their subject knowledge and confidence in German, they'll be better equipped to secure a strong A-Level or GCSE result, which is a key part of any successful UCAS application.
Are the tutors familiar with the curriculum taught in Nottingham schools?
Yes. Our tutors are experts in the UK's national curriculum, including the specific exam boards like AQA and Edexcel used for GCSE and A-Level German in most schools. They can tailor lessons to match exactly what your child is learning in the classroom, ensuring the support is always relevant.
What if my child doesn't click with their first German tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your 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 choose the best German tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, which include their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. Many tutors also offer a short intro call, which is a great way to chat about your child's needs and see if it's a good fit before booking a lesson.
How much does online German tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete control over what you spend.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is simple to use and has everything your child needs for a great lesson. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard for practising grammar, and a space to share documents. It's designed to be just as effective as being in the same room.
My child's confidence in German is low. Can a tutor help with that?
Building confidence is at the heart of what our tutors do. A one-to-one setting provides a safe space for your child to ask questions they might be afraid to ask in class. This personalised support often leads to a real boost in self-belief, which is just as important as the grades.
How often should my child have lessons?
Most families find that a one-hour lesson each week works well for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange lessons as often as you need with your tutor, whether that's for regular weekly support or for a few extra sessions before an exam.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is interviewed by our team and must pass an enhanced DBS background check. We are very selective, and only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
Life happens, and we understand that. You can easily manage your lessons through your account. Most tutors are happy to reschedule if you give them at least 24 hours' notice, but you can confirm their individual cancellation policy with them directly.
Do you only offer tutoring for school subjects like German?
Not at all! While we help thousands of students with academic subjects from Primary up to degree level, we also have tutors for a huge range of skills and hobbies. So if your child wants to learn guitar, coding, or even public speaking, we can help with that too.
My child's confidence in German is low. Can a tutor help with that?
You can get started very quickly. Simply search for a tutor, send them a message to check their availability, and you could be booking your child's first lesson for as early as this week.
