Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive school like St Olave's. Can an online History tutor help them build the required skills?

Absolutely. Our tutors specialise in helping students develop the critical thinking and analytical skills that selective schools look for. They can focus on exam technique, essay writing, and source analysis to ensure your child feels prepared and confident when it matters most.

We're thinking about top universities like King's College London. How can tutoring strengthen a History application?

A great tutor can help your child develop a deeper, more nuanced understanding of History that shines through in personal statements and interviews. They can explore topics beyond the A-Level syllabus, fostering a genuine intellectual curiosity that top universities value highly.

Is online tutoring really as effective as having someone visit our home in south-east-london?

Yes, and for many families, it's even better. Online tutoring gives your child access to a much wider pool of specialist tutors from across the UK, not just who is available locally. With interactive whiteboards and resource sharing, it's just as engaging, but with added flexibility and convenience.

What if my child doesn't click with the first History tutor we try?

It's so important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have you covered. If the first session isn't the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.

How are your History tutors selected and vetted?

We're very selective because your child deserves the best. Only 1 in 8 applicants make it onto Tutorful. Every tutor is interviewed by a real person, DBS checked, and has their qualifications verified to ensure they have the expertise and teaching skill to make a real difference.

Can a tutor help my child connect their studies to the history of south-east-london?

Definitely. Many tutors love making history relevant by connecting it to a student's local environment. Whether it's discussing the maritime history of Greenwich, the architecture of the Royal Observatory, or the social history of the Docklands, they can bring the curriculum to life.

My child is great with the historical facts but struggles with writing essays. Can a tutor help?

This is a very common challenge, and it's exactly where a one-to-one tutor can help most. They can break down essay structure, teach how to build a strong argument, and provide direct feedback to help your child turn their knowledge into top marks.

How much do online History lessons for a student in south-east-london cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and level of study. You can easily filter tutors by price on our platform to find an expert who fits your budget, with prices clearly displayed on their profile.

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 platform, so there's no complex software to install.

How flexible is scheduling? Our weeks can be very busy.

Incredibly flexible. You can see each tutor's availability on their profile and request slots that work for you. Many tutors offer evenings and weekend sessions, so you can easily fit lessons around school, clubs, and family life.

Beyond History, do you offer tutoring in related subjects like Politics or English?

Yes, we do. We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core academics like Politics, Economics, and English to hobbies and skills like learning a musical instrument or coding. We're here to support all of your child's learning interests.

My child is great with the historical facts but struggles with writing essays. Can a tutor help?

Every child is different, but many parents tell us they see a change in their child's attitude and confidence after just a few sessions. That feeling of being understood and supported by a dedicated tutor can make a positive impact very quickly.
