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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with their portfolio for a UAL application?
Yes, absolutely. This is one of the most valuable ways a specialist tutor can help. They can provide an expert eye, offering guidance on which pieces to include, how to present work professionally, and how to build a narrative that showcases your child's unique creative potential for a competitive application.
My child's school in North London has a good art department, so why do they need a tutor?
While school provides a great foundation, teachers are often stretched across a full class. A one-to-one tutor provides focused, individual attention that a school environment can't always offer. They can dive deep into your child's specific interests and help them develop the standout projects that go beyond the A-Level curriculum.
How do I choose the right Graphic Design tutor for my child?
You can view detailed tutor profiles which include their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. Many tutors have experience in the design industry or have helped students with university applications before. We recommend watching their intro videos and messaging a few to find the perfect fit for your child.
How much does online Graphic Design tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
Finding the right personality fit is so important. 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.
Are the tutors qualified to teach Graphic Design?
Yes. We take your child's safety and quality of education very seriously. We interview every tutor and only accept 1 in 8 applicants. All our tutors are background-checked and have the expertise to help your child succeed.
Can a tutor help with specific software like Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator?
Definitely. Many of our Graphic Design tutors are experts in industry-standard software. They can provide practical, step-by-step guidance to help your child master the tools they need to bring their creative ideas to life.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom is designed for creative subjects. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and screen sharing, making it easy for your child to share their work and get real-time feedback from their tutor, just as they would in person.
How can a tutor help if my child is feeling uninspired or has a creative block?
This is a common challenge for creative students. A tutor can act as a mentor, suggesting new artists to look at, introducing different techniques, or helping brainstorm ideas to get a project back on track. This supportive relationship can be fantastic for building creative confidence.
What makes Tutorful a trusted choice for parents?
We're proud to have helped over 200,000 students and to be rated 4.6/5 from over 4,100 reviews. Parents trust us because our tutors are hand-picked experts who genuinely care about helping your child achieve their goals.
How long will my child need tutoring for?
It really depends on your child's goals. Some students just need a few sessions to prepare a portfolio for a deadline, while others benefit from weekly support throughout their A-Levels. It's completely flexible and something you can discuss directly with your chosen tutor.
Can a tutor help with specific software like Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, master a new language, or get started with coding, we have expert tutors who can help them explore their passions.
