Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to study History at the University of Birmingham. Can a tutor help prepare them?

Absolutely. Many of our History tutors are university graduates themselves and have deep knowledge of what top institutions look for. They can help your child develop the critical thinking, source analysis, and essay-writing skills needed to build a strong application and excel at degree level.

With Birmingham's 11+ system and competitive schools, can a tutor give my child an edge in History?

Yes, they can. A one-to-one tutor can provide focused attention that’s often not possible in a busy classroom. By identifying and strengthening specific areas of weakness, they can help your child build the confidence and deep subject knowledge to stand out and achieve their best grades.

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

It is, and it offers unique advantages. Our interactive online classroom has tools like a shared whiteboard perfect for analysing texts and planning essays together. Plus, your child in Birmingham can connect with a UK-wide network of specialists, not just who's local, ensuring they find the perfect match for their needs.

How do you ensure your History tutors are high quality?

We're very selective. Only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto Tutorful. Every tutor is background-checked and interviewed to assess their subject expertise and teaching skills, so you can be sure your child is learning from a true professional.

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

Finding the right fit is everything. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't feel the tutor is the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk, and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.

My child also needs help with Maths. Do you offer tutors for other subjects?

We do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core GCSEs and A-Levels like Maths, English, and the Sciences, to music, languages, and even coding. You can find all the support your child needs right here.

How much does online History tutoring cost for a student in Birmingham?

Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from £15 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study (e.g., GCSE vs. A-Level). You can easily filter by price on our website to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.

How flexible are the lesson times?

Very flexible. Because our tutors are based across the UK, you have a wide choice of available times, including evenings and weekends. You can arrange sessions directly with your tutor to find a schedule that works perfectly for your family.

Can tutors help my child explore Birmingham's own local history?

Many tutors love to make learning relevant! Whilst their expertise might be on the national curriculum, you can certainly discuss incorporating local historical examples, like Birmingham's industrial heritage or its role in social reform, to make the subject even more engaging for your child.

What technology do we need for online lessons?

It's simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complex software to install.

How long are the sessions and how often should they be?

Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually ideal for maintaining focus. Most families opt for one session per week, but you can arrange a frequency that suits your child's needs and goals with your tutor. It's completely flexible.

How much does online History tutoring cost for a student in Birmingham?

Our tutors provide regular feedback to both students and parents. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss progress. Many parents tell us the first sign of progress is seeing their child's confidence grow and their attitude towards the subject change for the better.
