Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We live in Tooting and are aiming for a competitive school like Graveney. Can a tutor help with this level of academic pressure?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students navigate the challenges of highly academic environments. They can provide targeted support that not only covers the curriculum but also helps your child develop effective study habits and manage exam stress, building their confidence to thrive in a school like Graveney.

My child is hoping to apply to LSE or Imperial. Can a tutor help them build a standout application with their Mandarin skills?

Yes, a specialist tutor can be a great help here. Beyond just improving grades, they can help your child develop a deeper, more passionate understanding of the subject. This can translate into a more compelling personal statement and stronger interview performance, helping them demonstrate the kind of insight that top London universities like LSE and Imperial look for.

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

Finding the right personality match is really important, and we want you to be completely happy. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just 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 can my child learn other skills like playing the guitar or coding?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we have experts for core academic subjects like Mandarin, Maths, and English, you can also find brilliant tutors to help your child learn a musical instrument, master a coding language like Python, or even pick up a new hobby.

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

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few tutors who have experience with your child's specific goals (like GCSEs or A-Levels) and then sending them a message to see who feels like the best fit before booking.

How much do online Mandarin tutors cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget, with prices starting from £15 per hour. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How do online lessons work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It's designed to be simple and engaging, allowing your child and their tutor to collaborate just as they would in person. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our highest priority. We interview every tutor and carry out thorough background checks. 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.

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 whole class. Tutors use encouragement and targeted exercises to help them improve their pronunciation and fluency, which is often the biggest confidence booster of all.

How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach means you can see progress quickly. The consistency of weekly lessons often helps students build momentum and confidence, which is reflected in their schoolwork. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.

Can a tutor help with specific exams like GCSEs or A-Levels?

Yes, many of our tutors are specialists in exam preparation. They have a deep understanding of the exam boards and marking schemes for GCSE and A-Level Mandarin. They can help your child with revision techniques, exam strategy, and mastering the specific content they need to know to achieve their target grade.

How do online lessons work?

We know that life can be unpredictable! You can easily manage your schedule through your Tutorful account. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule a lesson to avoid being charged.
