Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child attends Millburn Academy. Can a tutor create a plan that fits alongside their current studies?

Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in creating study plans that complement a child's existing schoolwork. They can focus on building Mandarin skills without adding pressure to their main curriculum, helping your child develop a valuable new talent at a comfortable pace.

We live in Inverness. Does this mean our choice of tutors is limited to the local area?

Not at all! That's the main benefit of online tutoring. Your child can connect with the very best Mandarin tutors from across the UK, not just those based in or near Inverness. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists, ensuring you find the perfect match for your child's needs.

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

It's a really personal choice. We recommend watching tutors' introduction videos, reading their bios, and checking reviews from other parents. You can message tutors for free before booking to ask about their teaching style and experience. The goal is to find someone your child will connect with.

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 first tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How much do online Mandarin tutors cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or complicated contracts.

How can a tutor help my child if they are a complete beginner in Mandarin?

Our tutors are brilliant at working with beginners. They make learning feel fun and manageable, starting with the absolute basics like pronunciation (pinyin), simple greetings, and writing fundamental characters. They create a patient and encouraging environment where your child can build a strong foundation with confidence.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How does online tutoring work? What equipment do we need?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.

My child is worried about their university application. Can a tutor help?

Yes, many of our tutors have extensive experience helping students with their UCAS applications. Learning a language like Mandarin is a fantastic way to make an application stand out, and a tutor can help your child articulate this new skill effectively in their personal statement.

How long are the lessons and how often should my child have them?

Most lessons are one hour long, and we generally find that one session a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, this is completely flexible and something you can discuss and agree upon with your chosen tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.

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

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. As well as academic support, your child can learn practical skills like coding or a musical instrument like the guitar. There's something for every interest.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Paying for lessons is straightforward and secure. You add your payment details to your account, and we only charge you 24 hours after a lesson has been completed. There's no need to handle cash, and you can easily track all your payments online.
