Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for LSE or Imperial. Can a tutor help tailor their Japanese studies to support that goal?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students build a strong academic profile for top universities. They can focus on developing the analytical skills and deep subject knowledge that admissions tutors at places like LSE and Imperial look for, ensuring your child's Japanese A-Level strengthens their overall application.

With the high standards at schools like Godolphin and Latymer, can I find a tutor who can match that level?

Yes. We pride ourselves on the quality of our tutors, accepting only 1 in every 8 who apply. You can find tutors with degrees from top universities, extensive teaching experience, and a deep understanding of the level of excellence required to achieve an A* and stand out in a competitive school environment.

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

It's a really personal choice. You can read detailed profiles, watch introduction videos, and check ratings and reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is key to their success.

How much does a Japanese tutor in Notting Hill cost?

Our tutors set their own prices based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you know exactly what to expect. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How do online lessons work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for them to learn from the comfort of home, at a time that suits you.

Are your 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 are very selective, ensuring you can feel completely confident in the tutor you choose.

What happens if we don't like the first lesson?

How can a tutor help my child with their confidence in Japanese?

One-to-one attention makes a huge difference. In a private lesson, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A tutor can celebrate small wins and break down difficult topics, like verb conjugations, into manageable steps, which is fantastic for building their self-belief.

How long are the tutoring sessions?

The standard lesson length is one hour. This gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. You can discuss different arrangements directly with your tutor if needed.

How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?

You can start very quickly. Many of our tutors respond to messages within a few hours, and you could have your first lesson booked for as early as this week, depending on your and the tutor's availability.

What happens if we don't like the first lesson?

Payments are handled securely and simply through the platform. You add your card details to your account, and payment is taken automatically 24 hours after each completed lesson. You never have to deal with cash or awkward payment conversations.
