I couldn't rate Leah high enough. She really got on with my daughter and taught her at the pace required. My daughter passed her 11+ and Leah played a massive part in that :)

Callum A
Our son had a 15-minute introductory session with Callum focusing specifically on Transformations in Coordinate Geometry. We were genuinely impressed.
Callum explained rotations, reflections and translations in a clear, logical way, checked our son’s reasoning, and quickly identified the gaps in his understanding.
We’re now booking full sessions and feel confident that we’ve chosen a truly excellent maths tutor.

Rai S
Incredible! It’s fair to say that science was never one of my sons favourite subjects. My son has only had a few lessons with Rai so far but we are making it regular to support his GCSE exams.
Rai’s sessions are full of energy and my son has so much more confidence and loves the way Rai explains things. He has already learnt so much!
I would absolutely recommend!

I had my first session with Amie today and she was exceptionally helpful. I do both law and criminology a level and while my session was for criminology, I am now also considering law a level sessions. Amie is very fast at responding and really helped me to understand concepts in depth.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child prepare for entry to Wakefield College or Pontefract New College?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students achieve the GCSE grades needed for popular post-16 providers. They can focus on the specific subjects and topics your child needs to strengthen to meet the entry requirements and feel confident about taking that next step.
My child is hoping to study at a university like Leeds or Sheffield. Can tutoring help with that goal?
Definitely. A strong academic foundation at GCSE is the first crucial step on the path to a great university. Our tutors can help your child secure the grades they need to progress to A-Levels, which in turn opens up opportunities at top regional universities and beyond.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, which include their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. Many tutors also offer a short introductory chat so you and your child can meet them and make sure it's a good fit before booking a lesson.
How much do tutors in South Kirby cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level, so you can find an expert tutor that fits your budget.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It has everything your child needs for an engaging, one-to-one lesson, all from the comfort of your home.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed a background check before they can teach on our platform. We also manually vet every tutor application, accepting just 1 in 8, to ensure the highest quality.
Can a tutor help my child with their confidence, not just their grades?
This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. As your child starts to understand difficult topics in a supportive space, their self-belief grows. Our tutors are experts at creating a positive learning environment where your child feels comfortable asking questions and celebrating their progress.
Is tutoring just for core academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for Maths, English, and Science, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. You can find tutors for modern languages, music lessons like guitar or piano, and even practical skills like coding and Python.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which is usually perfect for covering a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to see what works best.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session per week is ideal for consistent progress. It allows enough time to build on what was learned in the previous lesson. You can easily arrange a schedule that fits your family's needs directly with your tutor.
How do I pay for lessons?
Paying is simple and secure. You add your payment details to your account, and we handle the rest. We process the payment 24 hours after each lesson is completed, so you never have to worry about paying the tutor directly.
