Carmen G
During my lessons with Carmen, she was very patient with me when I made errors and mistakes. She didn't judge or reprimand me at all, and instead made me feel confident and comfortable with speaking Spanish. As I am studying the A-Level Spanish course, she would give me extra material to study which relates to the exam topics, and give me practice in speaking, writing and listening. It was a lovely experience and I hope to book her again.

Carol G
Carol is brilliant! She clearly knows her subject inside out and tailors the lessons and homework excellently, too, often adapting ‘on the go’ -as stuff comes up, that leads to interesting tangents of related learning on the subject. She is really friendly …. and interesting, too, with fascinating life experiences, like living in Ibiza for years with her kids when younger. Highly recommended by me? Yes indeed! Look no further, you’ve found a brilliant tutor who provides incredibly good value one to one teaching!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends a competitive school in Highgate. Can a tutor help them stand out?
Yes, absolutely. In a competitive environment, a tutor can help your child go beyond the curriculum. They can introduce them to literature, film, and cultural topics not covered in class, building a deeper, more authentic passion for the language that will make them stand out.
Can a tutor help my child prepare for an application to a top London university like UCL or LSE?
Many of our tutors have experience helping students with university applications. They can help your child prepare for interviews, offer guidance on personal statements, and explore advanced topics that demonstrate a genuine academic interest in the language, which is exactly what top universities look for.
How do I choose the right Languages tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check qualifications on each tutor's profile. You can also send them a message before booking to discuss your child's needs and see if they are a good fit.
How much does an online Languages tutor cost in Highgate?
The cost varies depending on the tutor's experience and level of expertise. Our tutors set their own rates, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile with no hidden fees.
How does online tutoring work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from home.
Are the tutors safe to work with?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is identity and background checked before they can join us. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
What happens if we don't like the first lesson?
We want you and your child to be happy with your choice of tutor. With 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 can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking a new language?
Confidence is key, especially with languages. One-to-one lessons provide a safe, judgement-free space for your child to practise speaking without the fear of making mistakes in front of a whole class. This personal encouragement makes a huge difference.
Is Tutorful just for academic subjects like French or Spanish?
Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for all school and university subjects, we also have experts who can help your child learn a new hobby or skill. From learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python, there's a tutor for almost anything.
How long are the lessons?
Lessons are typically one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can arrange different lesson lengths by discussing it directly with your chosen tutor.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. Because the lessons are one-to-one, the tutor gets a clear understanding of your child's strengths and areas for improvement, and can share those insights with you.
What happens if we don't like the first lesson?
It's very straightforward. We have a simple 24-hour cancellation policy. As long as you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, you can reschedule your lesson for a more convenient time without any charge.
