Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for History at the University of Oxford. Can a tutor really help with that specific goal?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are graduates from top universities, including Oxford and Cambridge, and some are even A-Level examiners. They can provide invaluable guidance on developing the deep analytical skills, essay techniques, and historical curiosity that admissions tutors look for. They can help your child prepare a compelling personal statement and practise for the rigours of an academic interview.
With such strong schools in Oxford, how does online tutoring add value?
Excellent schools provide a fantastic foundation. Online tutoring offers something different: completely personalised, one-to-one attention. A tutor can focus entirely on your child's specific challenges and ambitions, whether that's mastering a tricky topic, refining their essay writing style, or building the confidence to contribute more in class. It's a focused supplement that helps them stand out, even in a competitive environment.
Is online tutoring as effective as meeting someone in person for a subject like History?
It really is. Our online platform features interactive whiteboards for analysing sources, easy document sharing for essay feedback, and clear video calls. The big advantage is access; your child in Oxford can connect with a Tudor history specialist from Durham or a modern history expert from London. It opens up a pool of top-tier talent from across the UK, not just who happens to live nearby.
How are your History tutors vetted?
We take safety and quality very seriously. Every tutor is background-checked and must complete a thorough application process, including an interview. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring your child learns from knowledgeable, passionate, and professional educators. You can see reviews from other parents for every tutor to help you choose.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first History tutor?
Finding the right personality match is crucial, and we want you to be completely happy. If the first session isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor, ensuring you find someone your child connects with.
Can we get help with a specific part of the History curriculum, like A-Level coursework?
Of course. That's the beauty of one-to-one tutoring. Whether your child needs a few sessions to plan their coursework, practise exam technique for a specific paper, or understand a particularly complex period, a tutor can create a plan tailored precisely to that need.
How much do online History lessons for students in Oxford 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 level of study (e.g., GCSE vs. A-Level). There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete flexibility.
Can a tutor help my child connect their learning to Oxford's own rich history?
Many tutors love doing this! While they'll focus on the curriculum, they can absolutely help your child draw connections between their studies and the history on their doorstep—from the English Civil War's local impact to the city's role in political movements. It's a great way to bring the subject to life.
What technology do we need for an online session?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer, a stable internet connection, and a microphone and webcam (which are built into most devices). Our online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.
Is tutoring only for students who are struggling with History?
Not at all. Tutoring is for any student who wants to improve. We help students who are aiming to turn a B into an A*, those who want to deepen their passion for the subject beyond the curriculum, and those who just need a confidence boost. It's about helping every child achieve their next goal.
My child has other interests too. What other subjects do you offer?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Alongside core academics like Maths, English, and the Sciences, we have tutors for languages, music, coding, art, and much more. It's easy to find support for all of your child's interests on our platform.
How much do online History lessons for students in Oxford cost?
You can start very quickly. Simply use our search filters to find a History tutor who fits your needs, send them a message to check their availability, and you can book your first session directly through their profile. Many families are able to start within a day or two.
