Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Are the tutors familiar with the Scottish curriculum, like National 5 and Higher German?

Yes, many of our tutors have extensive experience with the SQA curriculum. You can view each tutor's profile to see their specific experience with National 5 and Higher exams. You can also message them before booking to discuss your child's needs and ensure they're the perfect fit.

My child is applying to competitive universities like Edinburgh and St Andrews. Can a tutor help their application stand out with German?

Absolutely. A strong grade in a challenging language like German can be a real differentiator. A tutor can help your child master the curriculum to achieve that grade, but also help them articulate on their personal statement why they chose the subject and what they've learned from it – skills like resilience and analytical thinking, which are highly valued by top universities.

What if my child doesn't click with their first German tutor?

We know that the right personal fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, 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 right German tutor for my child?

You can read detailed profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few tutors and sending them a message to discuss your child's goals. This gives you a great feel for their teaching style before you book.

How much does online German tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency means you can find an excellent, affordable tutor who fits your budget, with no hidden costs.

How can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence in German?

This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can work at their own pace without fear of making mistakes. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, they can rebuild that self-belief, step by step.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check and had their ID and qualifications verified. We interview our tutors and only accept 1 in 8 who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple and secure. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

Can my child get help with specific things like German grammar or exam technique?

Definitely. The benefit of one-to-one tuition is that it's completely tailored. Whether your child needs to go back over the basics of German grammar, practise their conversational skills, or focus purely on Higher exam technique, the tutor will adapt the lesson plan to what helps most.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child also learn something like guitar or coding?

We offer tutoring in a huge range of subjects and skills beyond the core curriculum. From learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding or even public speaking, we have expert tutors who can help your child explore their passions.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss your needs directly with your tutor, as some may offer shorter or longer sessions if required.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

It can be very quick. You can browse tutors and send messages straight away. Many of our tutors respond within a few hours, and you could have your child's first lesson booked and scheduled in less than 24 hours.
