Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a highly selective school. Can an online tutor provide the right level of History support for that?

Absolutely. Because we're not limited by location, we connect students in Paddington with tutors from across the UK, including many with experience from top universities like Oxford and Cambridge. They understand the high standards required and can provide the focused, challenging support needed to excel in competitive entrance exams and interviews.

How can tutoring help my child feel more confident in History, given the high academic standards in Paddington?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one online setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions and work at their own pace. Our tutors are experts at breaking down complex topics, identifying specific gaps in knowledge, and celebrating small wins. This personalised attention helps turn 'I can't do this' into 'I understand this', which is the biggest confidence booster there is.

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

Yes, and for many families in Paddington, it's even better. Online lessons use interactive tools like whiteboards and resource sharing, which are perfect for analysing historical maps or sources together. Plus, your child gets access to a far wider choice of specialist tutors from across the UK, not just whoever is local. It's focused, effective, and fits around your life.

What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first History tutor?

Finding the right personality match is crucial, and we want you to be completely happy. If for any reason the first lesson isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will happily cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor to ensure you find the right person for your child.

How are your History tutors vetted?

We're very selective. Only 1 in 8 applicants make it onto our platform. Every tutor is interviewed by a subject specialist, and we carry out thorough background checks, including an enhanced DBS check. We pick tutors who are not only experts in their field but are also passionate and skilled communicators.

What topics within History can a tutor help with?

Our tutors cover a huge range of topics, from the Tudors and the World Wars for GCSE and A-Level, right through to specific university-level modules. Whether your child needs help with ancient civilisations, modern political history, or specific skills like essay writing and source analysis, we can find a specialist to help.

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

Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour, depending on their experience and level of study. You can browse tutor profiles to see their individual prices, reviews, and qualifications, allowing you to find a brilliant tutor that fits your budget.

How flexible is scheduling a lesson?

Extremely flexible. You can arrange sessions for evenings, weekends, or during school holidays – whatever works for your family's routine. Our platform makes it easy to communicate with your tutor and find a time that fits around school, clubs, and family commitments.

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 built into our website, so there's no complex software to download. It’s designed to be straightforward and easy to use.

My child is also interested in Politics. Do you offer tutoring in related subjects?

We do! Many of our History tutors also teach subjects like Politics, Sociology, and Classical Civilisation. Beyond humanities, we offer support in everything from Maths and Sciences to modern languages, music, and even coding. You can easily search for any subject your child is curious about.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you in the loop. You'll be able to see your child's confidence grow, and the tutor can share insights on their progress, areas of strength, and topics they're working on. It’s a partnership between you, your child, and the tutor.

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

Definitely. Many of our tutors are examiners or have extensive experience with specific exam boards like AQA, Edexcel, and OCR. They can provide targeted support on exam technique, revision strategies, and understanding mark schemes to help your child perform their best when it counts.
