Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is worried about the step up from National 5 to Higher Maths at their school in South Ayrshire. Can a tutor help?

Absolutely. This is a very common concern for parents. Our tutors are experienced in bridging that exact gap. They can reinforce key National 5 concepts and gently introduce Higher topics, building your child's confidence and ensuring they feel prepared for the challenge ahead.

We're aiming for a competitive STEM course at Glasgow or Strathclyde. Can you find a tutor with experience in this?

Yes. Many of our Maths tutors are university students or graduates from top STEM programmes themselves. They can not only provide expert help with the Higher Maths curriculum but also offer valuable insight into what universities like Glasgow and Strathclyde are looking for in their applicants.

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

It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking your first session to ensure you find the perfect match.

What if we don't click with the first tutor?

We want to find the perfect match for your child. 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.

Are your tutors safe and background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We have a strict selection process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor must pass an identity check and have a valid DBS or background check before they can teach on our platform.

How does online tutoring work?

It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a two-way video call and an interactive whiteboard. Your child and their tutor can share files, draw diagrams, and work through problems together, just as they would in person.

How much does a Maths tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can easily find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in Maths?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions and work at their own pace. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor can transform your child's attitude towards Maths from anxious to confident.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress. However, the schedule is completely flexible. You can arrange more frequent lessons during exam periods or less frequent top-up sessions as needed, all in discussion with your tutor.

What qualifications do your Maths tutors have?

Our tutors come from a range of backgrounds, including qualified teachers, university lecturers, and high-achieving university students who are passionate about their subject. You can view each tutor's specific qualifications and experience on their profile.

How long does a typical tutoring session last?

The standard lesson length is one hour. This gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. You can, of course, arrange longer sessions with your tutor if you feel it would be beneficial.

Is it just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer tutoring for a huge range of subjects and skills! Beyond core subjects like Maths and English, your child can learn a musical instrument like the guitar, a new language, or even practical skills like coding and Python.
