Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends a competitive Hampstead school. Can a tutor help them keep pace?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience supporting students from high-achieving schools like UCS, South Hampstead High, and Henrietta Barnett. They understand the pressure and can create a supportive space for your child to ask questions, consolidate their learning, and build the confidence to excel amongst their peers.
We're aiming for a top university like LSE or Imperial. Can a tutor help with this goal?
Yes. Our tutors can tailor lessons to go beyond the curriculum, helping your child develop the deeper understanding and passion for Mandarin that top universities look for. They can help your child prepare for interviews and demonstrate a level of knowledge that makes their application stand out.
How can a tutor help my child if they feel they're behind native speakers in their class?
This is a very common concern. A one-to-one tutor can create a non-judgemental space for your child to practise and make mistakes. They can break down complex concepts, focus on specific areas of difficulty like tones or grammar, and build your child's confidence at their own pace, away from classroom pressures.
How do I choose the right Mandarin tutor for my child?
We make it easy. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and make sure you've found the perfect match.
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 on their profile and use our search filters to find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term commitments.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find 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.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat function, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.

How many lessons will my child need?
There's no one-size-fits-all answer. It completely depends on your child's goals. You can book as many or as few lessons as you like, and there are no contracts or commitments. You can discuss a plan with your chosen tutor.
Can a tutor help with both GCSE and A-Level Mandarin?
Of course. Many of our tutors are experienced in teaching Mandarin at all levels. You can check their profiles to see their specific experience with the GCSE and A-Level curricula to find the perfect expert for your child.
