Personalised German Support to Help Your Child Succeed
Finding the right person to support your child is everything. That’s why we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. An expert German tutor will take the time to understand exactly how your child learns, whether they struggle with verb conjugations or need help building the confidence to speak. This isn't just about teaching the subject; it's about building a partnership that helps your child feel understood and capable. Every one-to-one lesson is planned around your child's specific goals. If they need to prepare for a mock exam, the session can focus on past papers. If they're finding the dative case tricky, their tutor can create targeted exercises to help it click. This focused attention is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade with us – and for GCSE, we can help them improve by up to two. We know family life in Tooting is busy. Online tutoring fits around your schedule, without the travel. You can find and message tutors for free, read reviews from over 4,100 other parents, and book lessons for times that work for you.

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 hoping to apply to Graveney School's sixth form. Can a tutor help them secure a top German GCSE grade?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students prepare for GCSEs with competitive entry requirements in mind. They can focus on the specific areas of the German curriculum your child needs to master to aim for those top grades (7-9), helping to build a strong academic profile for sixth form applications.
We're aiming for a top London university like UCL or King's. How can German tutoring strengthen my child's application?
Yes. A high grade in a language like German demonstrates strong analytical skills and a global perspective, which are highly valued by Russell Group universities. A tutor can help your child develop the deeper understanding and confident communication skills needed to make their university application stand out.
How do I choose the right German tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check verified reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors for free to discuss your child's specific needs before you book. It's all about finding a personality your child connects with.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is 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.
Can a tutor help my child with their speaking confidence for the oral exam?
Definitely. This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. Your child gets a safe space to practise speaking German with a fluent speaker, building their confidence for the oral exam without the pressure of a classroom.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked using an enhanced DBS check, and we personally interview every single applicant. We're very selective, so you can be confident your child is in safe hands.
How much does an online German tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so you can find an experienced tutor who fits your budget. Prices are displayed clearly on each tutor's profile with no hidden fees. You simply pay as you go for the lessons you book.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents and practice questions. It's simple to use and designed to make learning online engaging and effective.
How often should my child have a lesson?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Most families start with one session a week to build momentum, but you can arrange more frequent lessons during busy exam periods or less frequent top-up sessions as needed.
How quickly can we start?
You can start very quickly. Simply search for a tutor, send them a message to check their availability, and you could have your first lesson booked within 24 hours. Join over 200,000 happy students who have used Tutorful.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we're here to help with core academics like German, Maths, and English, we also have amazing tutors who can teach your child anything from playing the guitar and coding in Python to learning a new hobby.
How much does an online German tutor cost?
Most lessons are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you are free to arrange different lesson lengths directly with your tutor if needed.
