Wei is a lovely and dedicated teacher who is thorough throughout her lessons and takes the time to explain anything you’re struggling with in great detail to make sure you fully understand. She sets regular homework, marks it carefully, and goes through it with you, pointing out any mistakes and explaining how to improve. She’s always very well prepared and organised, making each lesson structured and productive. Her teaching style is patient and encouraging, which really helps to build confidence when learning Mandarin. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a supportive and knowledgeable tutor.

Brilliant Mandarin tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child is aiming for the University of Cambridge. Can a tutor help with that specific goal?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students prepare strong university applications. They can help your child develop the linguistic skills and cultural understanding that will impress admissions tutors at competitive universities like Cambridge, demonstrating a level of commitment that goes beyond their core subjects.
The academic environment in Cambridge is very competitive. How can a tutor help my child stand out?
In a competitive environment, a tutor provides personalised support that helps your child master a challenging subject like Mandarin, turning it into a real point of difference on their application. This one-to-one focus builds deep subject knowledge and confidence, which shines through in exams and interviews, helping them stand out from the crowd.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the right fit for your child. 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.
Is Tutorful just for academic subjects, or could my child also learn something like guitar or coding?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we're here to help with academic goals in subjects like Mandarin, Maths, or English, your child can also explore hobbies and develop new skills. We have expert tutors for everything from learning guitar and chess to coding in Python.
How do I choose the right Mandarin tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. It's a good idea to find someone whose teaching style and experience match your child's needs and personality. You can also send them a message before booking to ask any specific questions you have.
How much does online Mandarin tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete flexibility and control over what you spend.
How are your tutors vetted? Can I trust them?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID and qualifications verified. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
What happens in an online Mandarin lesson?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. A tutor might work through grammar exercises on the whiteboard, practice conversational skills, or analyse texts together, all tailored to your child's learning goals.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most lessons are one hour long, which gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child's schedule and concentration.
My child is a complete beginner in Mandarin. Is that okay?
Of course! Our tutors love working with students at all levels, from complete beginners to those preparing for advanced exams. They can start with the very basics, like Pinyin and tones, and build a strong foundation for your child's language journey.
How quickly can we expect to see progress?
Progress is different for every child. The benefit of one-to-one tutoring is that the pace is set by your child's needs. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions. We know that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
How are your tutors vetted? Can I trust them?
By creating a safe, one-to-one space where your child feels comfortable asking questions, a tutor helps them overcome any learning barriers. When they start to understand difficult concepts and see their skills improve, their self-belief grows naturally, and this new confidence often benefits them in other subjects too.
