Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive school like Tapton. Can a tutor help them stand out in History?

Absolutely. A great History tutor can help your child develop the deeper analytical skills and confident essay-writing techniques that admissions tutors look for. They go beyond the curriculum to foster a genuine passion and a more sophisticated understanding of the subject, which really makes a difference.

How can an online tutor from outside Sheffield understand the local curriculum?

Our tutors are experts in the national curriculum for GCSE and A-Level History (covering exam boards like AQA, Edexcel, and OCR), which is followed by schools across the country, including in Sheffield. They are skilled at tailoring their support to the specific topics and exam requirements your child is working on.

Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a subject like History?

Yes, and for many students, it's even better. Our online classroom has interactive whiteboards perfect for analysing sources, mind-mapping essays, and reviewing timelines together. Plus, your child can learn from home in Sheffield with a top UK History specialist, rather than being limited to whoever is local.

What happens if we don't click with the first History tutor we try?

We know that the right fit is crucial. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.

How much do online History lessons for a student in Sheffield cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from £20 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study (e.g., A-Level vs. GCSE). You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.

My child loves History, but what if they need help with something different, like coding or music?

We're here for that too! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects. So whether your child needs a hand with maths, wants to learn the guitar, or is curious about computer programming, you can find the perfect online tutor for them right here.

How do you check your tutors are suitable to work with children?

Your child's safety is our highest priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough vetting process, including identity checks and an enhanced DBS background check, before they can teach on our platform.

My child's schedule is already packed. How flexible are the lessons?

That's one of the best things about online tutoring. You're in complete control. You can schedule sessions at times that suit your family, whether that's after school, on weekends, or even during school holidays. No travel time, no stress.

What technology do we need for online lessons?

It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no complicated software to download.

Can a tutor help with specific parts of the History course, like coursework or exam technique?

Yes, absolutely. Our tutors can provide targeted support exactly where it's needed most. Whether your child needs help structuring their coursework, analysing historical sources, or mastering their exam essay technique, a tutor can create a plan to build those specific skills.

How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?

You can get started very quickly. Simply search for History tutors, filter by your needs, and message a few who look like a good fit. Many of our tutors respond within a few hours, and you could have your first lesson booked for this week.

How do you check your tutors are suitable to work with children?

Whilst we have many specialists for GCSE and A-Level, we also have tutors who can help with History at Key Stage 3, for university entrance exams, or even just for fun! Whatever your child's age or goal, we can help you find the right support.
