Sabine has been an excellent tutor for my son at German GCSE. I wish we had found her sooner. She has adapted her approach to suit him and he has really enjoyed working with her. I would highly recommend Sabine to anyone looking for a German tutor.

Ricarda M
My daughter has been using Ricarda for A Level German tuition for the past couple of months. My daughter's test grades have already gone up and her teacher has commented on the progress she has made over the last couple of months. Ricarda is very personable, reliable and responsive. She listens, and quickly understood the areas my daughter needs to work on. She is a great tutor and I'm very happy that I chose her to support my daughter. I would highly recommend Ricarda!

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.

Astrid W
My daughter was predicted a grade 5 in her German GCSE but, thanks to Astrid, she achieved a grade 7! Astrid’s lessons were clear, supportive, and really helped build her confidence, she even started to enjoy German. Astrid was also kind and flexible, which made the whole experience so positive. We’re so grateful for the huge difference she made and would highly recommend her!

Martina was a great tutor and massively helped my daughter with her german GCSE. At the beginning of year 11 my daughter was getting grade 5s in German. Then she started getting tutored by Martina and she managed to achieve a grade 7 in her German GCSE!!

Kristy has been absolutely incredible in supporting me through my German GCSE. Her tailored lessons and personalised exercises has helped me improve a great deal. Her approach to learning has been a great motivator for me during my exam season so I really owe her a big thanks for the grade I was able to achieve.

Brilliant German tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
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.
