Find An Expert Japanese Tutor For Learners In Solihull

Q: My child's school in Solihull doesn't offer Japanese. Can a tutor fill that gap?

Yes, this is a very common reason parents come to us. Our tutors can provide a complete course of study, covering the entire curriculum for exam boards like AQA and Edexcel, to prepare your child to sit their official GCSE or A-Level exams as a private candidate.

Q: How do I choose the right Japanese tutor for my child?

You can view detailed profiles for each tutor, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their teaching style. We also recommend messaging a few tutors or booking a free video chat to make sure you find the perfect match for your child's personality and goals.

Q: Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has an up-to-date DBS or equivalent background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

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

We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have a 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.

Q: How do the online lessons work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for them to learn face-to-face with their tutor from the comfort of your home.

Q: How much does online Japanese tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. All payments are handled securely through the site, so there are no hidden costs or awkward cash payments.

Q: How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

One-to-one tutoring provides a safe and supportive space where your child can learn at their own pace. They can ask questions they might be too shy to ask in a big classroom, helping them to overcome tricky topics and feel proud of the progress they're making.

Q: Can my child get help with specific GCSE or A-Level Japanese exams?

Yes. Many of our tutors are experts in the specific requirements of UK exam boards. They can help your child with everything from exam technique and revision strategies to mastering the content needed to achieve the best possible grade.

Q: Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we cover all academic subjects from Primary to degree level, we also have talented tutors who can teach practical and creative skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get into coding, or master a new piece of software, we can help.

I taught a variety of students: e.g. young children (primary school), teenagers (GCSE /A-level), university students, and adults up to over 60 years old. Most of them are beginner or intermediate-level learners.Let me describe my teaching style with 3 key points: 1) TEACHING MATERIALS: I mainly use my original teaching materials which are full of visual-focused explanations and custom illustrations. I believe every lesson should be customised to some extent, because of the many different...

My 17 year old daughter has recently started lessons with Aki and is enjoying them immensely. She says she is learning a lot and likes that she gets plenty of opportunity in the lesson to practice speaking Japanese with Aki. Learning resources are excellent too and I wouldn't hesitate in recommending Aki to other parents. Thank you :)

Ikumi M

I never imagined I would enjoy learning a new language after my school years. Ikumi fosters a warm and welcoming environment, demonstrating patience and utmost professionalism. Her preparation for each lesson is impressive, and she even assigns homework when she's unable to conduct a session. I believe I couldn't have found a better tutor and I plan to continue with her until I achieve my personal goals. Thank you Ikumi!

Misako G

Misako is truly the best teacher I've ever had. I've been interested in Japanese and studied by myself for some time and taking up the lessons was the best step forward in my learning. I was a complete beginner at the time, but quickly lessons with Misako became the highlights of my week. I am more comfortable speaking the language and am always looking forward to learn more. ありがとうございます！

asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to apply to the University of Warwick or Birmingham. Can a tutor help strengthen their application?

Absolutely. A specialist Japanese tutor can guide your child through the curriculum needed to gain a formal GCSE or A-Level qualification. This officially recognises their hard work and makes their UCAS application far more compelling than just listing it as a hobby. Tutors can also help them articulate their passion in their personal statement.
