Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child worries about keeping up with peers from high-achieving schools in Glasgow. Can tutoring help?

Absolutely. One-to-one tutoring is brilliant for this. We create a supportive space where your child can work at their own pace, focusing on the specific areas they find tricky without the pressure of a classroom. Our tutors help build foundational knowledge and confidence, ensuring they feel just as prepared and capable as any of their peers.

Can a tutor help with the skills needed for competitive courses at the University of Glasgow?

Yes, many of our tutors are experienced in helping students prepare for university-level study. They can focus on developing the crucial analytical and essay-writing skills that top universities look for, helping your child to articulate their ideas with clarity and depth in their applications and future studies.

Is it possible for a tutor to connect SQA topics to Glasgow's local history?

That's a fantastic way to bring the subject to life! Whilst our tutors are based across the UK, many are skilled at weaving local context into their lessons. You can discuss this with any potential tutor – they're often brilliant at finding ways to make topics like the Industrial Revolution or social history more tangible by referencing Glasgow's rich heritage.

How does online tutoring for History actually work?

It's simple and very effective. Your child connects with their tutor via video call in our interactive online classroom. They can use a shared whiteboard to analyse sources, review essay plans, and work through topics together. It’s all the benefit of face-to-face support, with the added convenience of learning from home.

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

We know the right fit is crucial. 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 your first session with a new tutor.

How do you ensure your History tutors are high quality?

We're very selective. In fact, only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform. Every tutor is interviewed, background-checked, and has proven subject expertise, so you can be sure your child is learning from some of the best tutors in the UK.

My child is studying for their National 5 exams. Can we find a tutor who understands the SQA system?

Yes. Many of our tutors have specific experience with the Scottish curriculum, including National 5s, Highers, and Advanced Highers. You can check each tutor's profile for their experience and even filter your search to find tutors who specialise in the SQA system.

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

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts, so you have complete control and flexibility.

How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should we have them?

Most sessions are an hour long, which is usually ideal for maintaining focus. Most families find a weekly session works best to build momentum, but the frequency is completely up to you and can be arranged directly with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your schedule.

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.

My child is interested in other subjects, not just History. Can you help?

Of course. We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from maths and science to languages, music, and even coding. You can find support for all your child's interests on Tutorful.

My child is studying for their National 5 exams. Can we find a tutor who understands the SQA system?

Definitely. This is one of the key areas where our tutors make a huge difference. They can work specifically on SQA exam technique, from time management and structuring answers to understanding exactly what examiners are looking for. It's often the key to turning good knowledge into great grades.
