asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to study business at the University of Aberdeen. Can a tutor help them stand out?

Absolutely. A Mandarin tutor can help your child develop language skills that are highly valued in international business and engineering courses. This can be a key differentiator on their university application, showing ambition and a global perspective that universities like Aberdeen look for.

We live in Aberdeen, but the best tutors might be elsewhere. How does online tutoring help?

That's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. Your child can connect with the UK's very best Mandarin tutors without being limited by geography. It gives you access to a much wider range of expertise, ensuring you can find the perfect match for your child's specific needs and learning style.

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

It's a really personal choice. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few to discuss your child's goals before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important thing.

What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. 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 much do online Mandarin tutors cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, so you can find a price that fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you'll always know the cost upfront. There are no hidden fees or complicated contracts.

Are the tutors safe and background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, including identity and background checks, before they can start teaching. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking a new language?

One-to-one lessons provide a safe, supportive space for your child to practise speaking without the fear of making mistakes in front of a class. Tutors use encouragement and positive feedback to help them feel more comfortable, which is key to building fluency and confidence.

My child is a complete beginner in Mandarin. Is that okay?

Of course! Our tutors are experienced in teaching students of all levels, from absolute beginners to those preparing for advanced exams. They will start with the basics, like pronunciation and simple characters, and build from there at a pace that suits your child.

Is Tutorful just for school subjects, or could my child learn something like guitar or coding too?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects, well beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new craft, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their passions.

What technology do we need for online lessons?

It's very simple. All you need is a computer or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons take place in our online classroom, which features an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing.

How often should my child have lessons?

Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely up to you. You can discuss what works best for your child's goals and your family's schedule with your chosen tutor.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking a new language?

The best way is to have regular chats with your child's tutor. They can provide feedback on areas where your child is excelling and where they might need a little more focus. You'll also see their confidence and understanding grow week by week.
