Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is applying to King's College London. Can a tutor help with their personal statement for History?

Absolutely. Many of our History tutors have experience guiding students through the UCAS application process. They can help your child articulate their passion for the subject, structure their personal statement, and showcase the unique historical perspective that top London universities are looking for.

With so much competition in London, how can a tutor help my child's application stand out?

A great tutor goes beyond just grades. They can act as a mentor, helping your child explore historical topics beyond their A-Level curriculum, suggest wider reading, and practise discussing complex ideas. This deeper engagement helps them build the sophisticated arguments needed to impress in both their personal statement and potential interviews.

How do I choose the right History tutor for my child?

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents just like you. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

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

How much does an online History tutor in London cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can easily filter your search to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.

Are your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one. We are very selective, only accepting 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How do online lessons actually work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. They can work through essay plans, analyse sources, and review past papers together with their tutor in real-time.

How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in History?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be hesitant to ask in class. A tutor can patiently break down tricky concepts until things click, which makes a huge difference to how your child feels about the subject.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families choose to have one session a week, as this consistency helps build momentum. However, it's completely flexible. You might want more frequent lessons in the run-up to exams or less frequent check-ins during term time. You can discuss what's best with your child's tutor.

What if we need to reschedule a lesson?

Life is busy, and we understand that plans can change. You can easily manage your schedule through our platform. Just be sure to give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice to reschedule or cancel a lesson without being charged.

Is tutoring just for academic subjects like History?

Not at all! While we have thousands of academic tutors, we also have experts who can help your child learn a new skill or hobby. From learning to play the guitar or piano to getting started with coding, there's a tutor for almost anything.

How do online lessons actually work?

You can get started today! Simply search for a tutor, send them a message to check their availability, and you could have your child's first lesson booked within a day. Many of the 200,000+ happy students who have used Tutorful found their perfect match in just a few minutes.
