Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a tutor help my child get the grades needed for West Lancashire College?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students secure the grades they need for further education. They can focus on the specific GCSE syllabus requirements and exam techniques to help your child aim for that crucial Grade 4 or 5, opening up their options for courses at local colleges like West Lancashire College.

My child goes to a local comprehensive in Skelmersdale. Can a tutor work with their school curriculum?

Definitely. Our tutors are experienced in supporting the national curriculum. They can work alongside your child's schoolwork, helping to reinforce what they learn in class, plug any gaps in their understanding, and prepare them for school tests and their final GCSE exams.

How do I choose the right Maths GCSE tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. We recommend watching their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ensure they're the perfect fit for your child.

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

We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. 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 Maths GCSE tutoring cost in Skelmersdale?

Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and qualifications. This transparency allows you to find an expert tutor who fits your budget, with no hidden costs or contracts.

How does online tutoring work?

It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a shared whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. Your child just needs a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection. It's just like being in the same room, but with all the convenience of learning from home.

Can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence in Maths?

Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a safe and encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild your child's self-belief and change their attitude towards Maths.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most students have one lesson a week, as this provides consistency and allows them to build momentum. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be discussed with your tutor. You might choose to have more sessions in the run-up to exams, for example.

How long will my child need a tutor for?

This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students work with a tutor for a full academic year to build a strong foundation, while others might just need a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam. There are no contracts, so you can have as many or as few lessons as you need.

What happens in a typical one-to-one Maths GCSE lesson?

A typical lesson is tailored to your child's needs. The tutor might start by reviewing homework from school, then move on to explaining a new concept using the interactive whiteboard. They'll work through examples together, ensuring your child understands before setting practice questions. It's all about providing targeted support where it's needed most.

Is Tutorful only for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we offer fantastic support for academic subjects from Primary through to A-Level and beyond, we also have tutors for a huge range of hobbies and skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help.
