Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is worried about getting the grades for a competitive sixth form in Lewisham. Can a tutor help?

Yes, absolutely. Many parents in South East London use our tutors to help their children secure places at their first-choice sixth forms. A tutor can focus specifically on the topics your child finds difficult, helping them build the skills and confidence needed to aim for those higher grades like a 7, 8 or 9 in their language GCSE.

We're looking ahead to top London universities. How can a language tutor strengthen my child's application?

Continuing with a language at A-Level, supported by a tutor, can make a university application much stronger. It demonstrates a valuable 'global outlook' that top universities in London and across the UK really appreciate. A tutor can help your child achieve the high grades needed and develop a deeper passion for the subject that shines through in their personal statement.

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

We know how important the right fit is. 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.

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

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to code, play the guitar, or get help with their university application, you can find an expert tutor to support their goals and hobbies.

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

You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications on their profile. You can also send messages to tutors before booking to ask about their experience and teaching style to make sure they're the perfect match for your child.

How much does online languages tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study. Tutors set their own rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your budget.

How do online lessons actually 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, secure, and effective way for your child to learn from home.

How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help them overcome learning blocks and start to believe in their own ability.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is background-checked using an enhanced DBS check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one session a week is ideal for steady progress. However, it's completely flexible. You might want more frequent lessons in the run-up to an exam, or less frequent sessions for general confidence-building. You can discuss what's best with your tutor.

Can a tutor help if my child has fallen behind?

Definitely. A one-to-one tutor is perfect for helping a child catch up. They can go back over topics your child didn't quite grasp in class, fill in any gaps in their knowledge, and get them back on track and feeling positive about the subject.

How do online lessons actually work?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also see their confidence grow as they start to participate more in class and their school results begin to improve. Open communication with your tutor is key, so you always know what they're working on together.
