Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is hoping to apply to the University of Southampton. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with their university ambitions. They can help your child master their subject to achieve the required grades and build the confidence and skills that will make their application to a competitive university like Southampton stand out.
We live near Brockenhurst. Does it matter that the tutors aren't local to the New Forest?
Not at all. The benefit of online tutoring is that it gives your child access to the very best tutors across the UK, not just those who live nearby. This means you can find a specialist with the perfect experience for your child, and schedule lessons at a time that works for your family, all from the comfort of home.
How do I choose the right Mandarin tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking a lesson to make sure you've found the right person.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. That's why we have a 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. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all of our tutors must have a valid DBS background check. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to join our platform.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom has all the tools your child needs for a great lesson, including a shared whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. It’s designed to be simple and intuitive, so your child can focus on learning Mandarin.
Can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe, encouraging space where your child feels comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. This personal support is often key to helping their confidence grow.
How many lessons will my child need?
This is completely up to you and your child. Some students have a weekly lesson to build their skills over time, while others book a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam or topic. You can discuss the best approach with your chosen tutor.
What qualifications do your Mandarin tutors have?
Our tutors come from a wide range of backgrounds, including native speakers, university language students, and experienced teachers. You can see all their qualifications, experience, and reviews from other parents on their individual profiles.
How quickly can we see progress?
With personalised, one-to-one attention, many parents tell us they see a change in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions. Consistent lessons are the best way to help your child achieve their long-term goals.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something else?
While we support thousands of students with academic subjects, we also have brilliant tutors for hobbies and life skills. So if your child wants to learn guitar, get better at chess, or even try their hand at coding, we can help with that too.
