What happens if we're not happy with the first lesson?

We're confident you'll find a great match, but our First Lesson Guarantee is here for your peace of mind. If you don't feel the tutor is the right fit after the first session, simply email support@tutorful.co.uk and we'll cover the cost of that lesson.

Can a tutor help with interview technique as well as the pre-test?

Yes. Many of our tutors are experienced in coaching for school interviews. They can help your child structure their answers, speak clearly and confidently, and feel prepared for the types of questions they might be asked, helping them to present the best version of themselves.

When is the best time to start tuition for the Year 6 pre-test?

This varies for each child, but many parents find that starting tuition at the beginning of Year 5 provides ample time to cover the syllabus, identify and strengthen weak areas, and build confidence without feeling rushed. Your chosen tutor can create a tailored timeline based on your child's needs.

What specific areas of the ISEB Common Pre-Test can a tutor help with?

Our tutors can cover all four sections of the ISEB Pre-Test: Maths, English (including comprehension and grammar), Verbal Reasoning, and Non-Verbal Reasoning. They use practice papers and targeted exercises to ensure your child is familiar with the format and timing of the exam.

How many lessons a week will my child need?

Most students preparing for school entrance exams have one session per week. This provides consistency and allows time for them to consolidate their learning between lessons. However, this is flexible and can be discussed with your tutor to fit your child's goals and schedule.

What does a typical Marlborough College entrance tutoring session look like?

Every session is tailored to your child's needs, there’s not one standard format. It might start with a review of previous work, move onto a new concept in a challenging area like Non-Verbal Reasoning, and finish with timed practice questions to improve speed and accuracy. Many tutors incorporate interactive tools on our online whiteboard to keep lessons engaging.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback on your child's development. Through practice tests, targeted questioning, and session reports, you'll have a clear view of the progress they are making and the areas they still need to build on.

Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from £25 per hour, although tutors with specific expertise in competitive school admissions may have higher rates. You can filter by price on our website to find an expert tutor who fits your budget.
