Sarah H
Sarah is an excellent tutor. After my mock exam results, my confidence had taken a knock, but Sarah has really helped me rebuild it. She explains concepts very clearly and then reinforces them by working through examples, which helps everything stick.
Thanks to her support, I’ve developed a much deeper understanding of the areas I was struggling with and feel far more confident in the lead-up to my exams. Sarah has made a huge difference to my learning, and I can’t recommend her highly enough.

We’re so pleased with my son’s first maths tutoring session this evening. He was quite nervous beforehand, but he finished smiling and said he really enjoyed it! The tutor made him feel comfortable straight away and explained everything in a way that really clicked for him. It’s so nice to see him feeling more confident already. We’re really looking forward to the next session. Highly recommend

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to study A-Levels at Barnsley College. Can a tutor help them get the right GCSE Maths grade?
Absolutely. Many of our Maths tutors specialise in the GCSE curriculum and have a great track record of helping students secure the grades they need for their chosen A-Level courses. They can focus on specific exam board requirements and exam techniques to build your child's confidence for the big day.
We're hoping my child will go to university in Sheffield. Can a tutor support their long-term goals?
Yes, our tutors can help build a strong foundation in Maths that will not only help with A-Levels but also prepare them for university-level study. Many courses at institutions like the University of Sheffield or Sheffield Hallam have a strong mathematical component, and a tutor can ensure your child has the core skills needed to succeed.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't feel the first tutor is the right match for your child, simply email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects like Maths?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we also help students explore other interests! You can find tutors for a wide range of skills, from learning to play the guitar and music theory to coding in Python or even learning a new language.
There are so many tutors. How do I choose the right one for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can filter tutors by subject, level, and price. Each tutor has a detailed profile with a video, student reviews, and their qualifications. We recommend messaging a few to discuss your child's needs before booking. It helps you get a feel for their teaching style.
How much does a Maths tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. This allows you to find a brilliant, qualified tutor that fits your family's budget.
My child's confidence in Maths is really low. How can a tutor help?
This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. In a one-to-one setting, there's no fear of asking a 'silly' question. Tutors create a safe, encouraging space to make mistakes and learn. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they help rebuild that self-belief, which often has a positive impact on schoolwork too.
What do we need for an online lesson?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing, making lessons engaging and collaborative.
How do you make sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID and qualifications verified. We interview them to assess their teaching skills and only accept 1 in 8 applicants, so you can be sure you're choosing from the very best.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback, and you can message them at any time to discuss your child's progress. Because the lessons are one-to-one, the tutor can immediately see which areas your child understands and where they need more support, adapting the lesson plan as they go.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most students have one lesson a week, which gives them time to practise what they've learned in between sessions. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange lessons more or less frequently depending on your child's needs, such as extra sessions in the run-up to an exam.
How successful is tutoring with Tutorful?
We're proud to have helped over 200,000 students achieve their goals, and 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Our platform has a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews from parents just like you, which we hope gives you confidence in the support we provide.
