Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a tutor help my child's application for the University of Southampton stand out?

Absolutely. A tutor can help your child develop genuine fluency and cultural understanding in Mandarin, which is a significant asset on a UCAS application. They can also help your child articulate this skill effectively in their personal statement, showing they are a globally-minded candidate perfect for a competitive course.

Is learning Mandarin online relevant for future careers in Southampton?

Yes, very much so. As a major international port, Southampton has strong global trade links. Proficiency in Mandarin is a highly sought-after skill in logistics, business, and technology sectors, giving your child a tangible advantage in the local job market after they graduate.

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

You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to find the perfect match. Think about your child's personality and learning style – are they quiet and need gentle encouragement, or do they thrive with a more energetic approach? Finding the right fit is key.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We understand that the right relationship is crucial for learning. That's why we have 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. You can set your own budget and filter your search to find a tutor who fits your family's needs. All pricing is shown clearly on each tutor's profile, so there are no surprises.

How are your tutors vetted?

We take your child's safety and quality of education very seriously. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor must pass an interview and a background check, and we verify their ID and qualifications to ensure you're getting the best support.

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

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 tailored exercises to build confidence, helping your child find their voice and feel comfortable with pronunciation and conversation.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer a huge range of subjects and skills! Beyond Mandarin, your child can learn anything from coding and guitar to another language or even public speaking. It's a great way to support their hobbies and personal development alongside their schoolwork.

What technology do we need for online lessons?

It's simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom has all the tools your child needs, including an interactive whiteboard, so you don't need any special software.

Can a tutor help with specific exams like the Mandarin GCSE or A-Level?

Yes. Many of our tutors are experts in the UK curriculum and have extensive experience helping students prepare for exams. They can cover specific modules, focus on exam technique, and work through past papers to help your child feel fully prepared and confident.

How long are the tutoring sessions?

Lessons are typically one hour long, which we find is the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. You can arrange the frequency of lessons directly with your chosen tutor to fit your family's schedule.

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

Every child learns at their own pace, but the benefit of one-to-one tuition is that it's focused entirely on their needs. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions.
