I've taught children with SEN, EAL, behavioural problems and gifted children, across all primary stages.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is applying to a highly competitive West London school. Can a tutor help with History entrance exams?

Absolutely. Many of our History tutors specialise in exam preparation for selective schools. They can work with your child on the specific types of source analysis and essay questions they're likely to face, building both their skills and their confidence for the big day.

We're aiming for top History GCSE grades at a school like Twyford to get into a competitive sixth form. How can online tutoring help?

We can definitely support that goal. A tutor will identify any gaps in your child's knowledge and focus on key exam techniques, from structuring high-scoring essays to mastering source evaluation. This targeted, one-to-one support is designed to help students improve their grades and secure their desired sixth form place.

Are your tutors familiar with the standards required for Oxbridge History applications?

Yes, many of our tutors are graduates from top universities, including Oxford and Cambridge, and have experience guiding students through the demanding application process. They can provide invaluable support with personal statements, interview preparation, and developing the sophisticated analytical skills admissions tutors are looking for.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple and effective. All lessons take place via video call in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes an interactive whiteboard, file sharing, and everything your child needs for a great learning experience. All they need is a laptop or tablet and an internet connection.

Is online tutoring as good as having someone come to our home in West London?

We think it's even better! Online tutoring gives your child access to the best subject specialists from all over the UK, not just who happens to live nearby. It also means no travel time, more flexibility to fit around your family's schedule, and a comfortable learning environment at home.

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

Finding the right fit is the most important thing, and we want you to be completely happy. If the first session isn't a perfect match, 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 much do online History tutors cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £25 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can browse profiles and filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.

How do you vet your tutors?

We're very selective. We interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8 who apply. All our tutors are background-checked and have the academic and teaching experience to provide excellent support. It's how we ensure quality and peace of mind for parents.

Can we find a tutor for subjects other than History?

Yes, of course. We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core GCSEs like Maths and Science to languages, musical instruments, and even coding. You can find support for every member of your family on Tutorful.

My child is quite shy. Will they be comfortable in an online lesson?

Many parents find that online, one-to-one tutoring is perfect for shier children. Learning from the comfort of their own room can help them feel more relaxed and confident to ask questions they might not ask in a busy classroom. It’s a safe space to build confidence.

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

Most sessions are an hour long, which we find is ideal for maintaining focus. Most students have one session per week, but this is completely flexible. You and your tutor can agree on a schedule that works best for your child's goals and your family's routine.

How much do online History tutors cost?

That's a fantastic way to bring the subject to life! Many tutors would be delighted to incorporate local context, perhaps by discussing the political history surrounding Westminster or analysing sources related to London's social changes. It helps make their learning feel relevant and exciting.
