Supported my son with his Graphic design A2 level. Wish we’d found him sooner, he’s made such a difference in such a short space of time, he’s very engaging, knowledgeable, flexible and brought my son out of his shell by being so patient and helpful, nothing was a bother and my son built a great rapport with him. Highly recommend 👌

Lili G
Lili is fantastic and i enjoy listening over the session she has with my son for A Level Graphic Design. She has her work cut out for her as my son is not the most talkative, but she doesn't let this deter her and she continues to try and build the rapport and be relatable to the topic of choice. She's very patient, funny and really probes and questions him further in order to make him think about the direction he wants to go and shares some really good examples of how he can look to explore this further. I can already see a change in him where he is starting to approach things differently and with Lili's help i'm confident over time this will become easier. Another great session.

Candice W
I have only had a couple of classes with Candice so far but I already know chosing her as my tutor was the right decision. I'm getting the sense that she is very good at adjusting to the needs of the individual student; wether it's concerning how to support me in areas I struggle with or knowing what my interests are and providing tasks I would find inspiring. Candice is very encouraging and provides structured classes and assignments so you never feel confused about what is expected of you. She always replies to messages and emails outside of class if you get stuck and need some extra help. I would warmly recommend her to everyone looking for a tutor in the subjects she teaches. Especially if confidence is an issue for you or you would like to improve your performance. Graphic Design was my weakest subject in my first year of A-Levels but now, with her help, I feel like I might actually be able to achieve the grade I want. On top of that the process feels fun and engaging again rather than frustrating and discouraging.

asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to UAL or Ravensbourne. Can a tutor help with their portfolio?
Absolutely. Many of our Graphic Design tutors are graduates of top arts universities themselves or have professional industry experience. They can provide invaluable guidance on what admissions teams are looking for, helping your child curate their work and present a portfolio that truly reflects their unique talent and potential.
Are the tutors familiar with the creative scene and expectations in East London?
While our tutors are based across the UK, many have experience with the competitive London arts scene. They understand the high standards of local universities and can act as a mentor, providing the industry insight and encouragement your child needs to feel confident in their applications.
How do I choose the right Graphic Design tutor for my child?
It's simple to find the perfect fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking to ensure you find someone who your child will really connect with.
How much do Graphic Design tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on their experience and qualifications, so you can easily find a fantastic, background-checked tutor who fits your budget.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. 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 their creative skills?
Creative subjects can feel very personal, and a crisis of confidence is common. A tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to experiment and make mistakes without fear of judgement. By celebrating their progress and providing constructive feedback, they help your child trust their own artistic voice again.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be completely confident your child is in safe, expert hands.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has all the tools your child needs for a great lesson, including video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and screen sharing for looking at digital work together. It's a convenient and effective way for your child to get focused, one-to-one support from home.
What equipment does my child need for an online Graphic Design lesson?
All they need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. If they use specific software like Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator, they'll need that available on their computer too.
Can a tutor help my child with their GCSE or A-Level Graphic Design coursework?
Yes, definitely. Tutors can provide brilliant support for coursework and exam preparation. They can help your child understand the assessment criteria, develop their ideas, and refine their final pieces to help them achieve the best possible grade.
How quickly will we see results?
Every child learns differently, but the one-to-one focus of tutoring often leads to progress quickly. Many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence and enthusiasm after just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Are the tutors background-checked?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! So beyond Graphic Design, your child could learn a musical instrument like guitar, a new language, or even practical skills like coding. It's all about helping them pursue their passions.
