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.

Jonathan W
I've had the pleasure of being tutored by Jonathan for both Maths and Mandarin throughout part of year 10 and year 11 in preparation for my GCSEs , and i can confidently say that he has done an excellent job. His teaching has made a huge difference to my understanding in both subject.
He always explains things clearly, and is patient when i need extra help to understand, and adapts his teaching style to suit how i learn best .I am really grateful for all the time and effort he has put into helping me succeed. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated tutor.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child strengthen their UCAS application for universities like Nottingham or Warwick?
Absolutely. Our tutors can help your child aim for the highest possible grade in Mandarin, making their application more competitive. Many tutors are university graduates themselves and can offer valuable insights into what top universities look for.
My child goes to a competitive school in Derby. Can tutors match that ambitious pace?
Yes. Our tutors are experienced in supporting students with high academic ambitions. They can tailor their lessons to complement your child's schoolwork, providing the extra depth and practice needed to excel in a competitive environment.
How do I choose the right Mandarin tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking. Finding the right personality fit is just as important as their expertise.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 does online Mandarin tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but typically range from £25 to £45 per hour. You can filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help with the speaking and listening parts of the Mandarin GCSE?
This is where one-to-one tutoring really shines. Your child can practice conversation in a safe, supportive space, building their confidence for the speaking exam. Tutors can also use audio resources to help sharpen their listening and comprehension skills.
Are your tutors qualified to teach Mandarin?
Yes. Every tutor is thoroughly vetted by our team. We check their ID, references, and require a valid DBS check. Many are native speakers, qualified teachers, or university graduates with a deep passion for the language.
My child is really shy. How does one-to-one tutoring help with that?
The one-to-one setting is perfect for quieter children. It allows them to ask questions without feeling the pressure of a full classroom. Tutors are skilled at building a friendly rapport, creating a space where your child feels comfortable and confident to participate.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's confidence and grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but regular weekly lessons create the best momentum. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence within just a few sessions as they start to grasp topics they once found tricky.
Can I track my child's progress?
Of course. The best way is to have a quick chat with your tutor. They can provide regular feedback on how your child is doing, what they've been covering in lessons, and the areas they plan to focus on next.
How can a tutor help with the speaking and listening parts of the Mandarin GCSE?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new craft, we have expert tutors available to help them explore their passions.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
