Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to study engineering at Robert Gordon University. Can a tutor help with the specific maths skills needed?

Yes, many of our tutors have experience supporting students with university ambitions. They can help your child master the core National 5 topics that form the foundation for higher-level engineering studies, building both their skills and their confidence for the journey ahead.

The local schools like Cults Academy and Aberdeen Grammar are very competitive. Can a tutor help my child keep up?

Absolutely. A private tutor can provide a safe space for your child to go over topics they might not have fully grasped in a busy classroom. They can work at your child's pace, helping them build a solid understanding and feel more confident participating in class.

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

We want to make sure you 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.

How do I pick the right Maths National 5 tutor for my child?

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors for free before booking to discuss your child's needs and make sure it's a good fit.

How much does a Maths National 5 tutor cost in Aberdeen?

The cost varies depending on the tutor's experience, and prices are clearly listed on each tutor's profile. This transparency allows you to find an expert tutor who fits your family's budget with no hidden fees.

How does online tutoring actually work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including video chat, an interactive whiteboard for solving problems together, and a way to share documents. It's a simple, effective, and convenient way to learn from home.

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

Yes, this is one of the most powerful benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a patient and encouraging environment where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed, helping them to rebuild their self-belief one step at a time.

How do you vet your tutors?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has to go through a rigorous application process. We interview every tutor and only accept 1 in 8 who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss their progress and goals. Many parents tell us they see a noticeable difference in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions.

How many lessons will my child need?

This is completely up to you and your child. Some students have a regular weekly session to stay on top of their studies, while others might just book a few lessons to prepare for a specific exam. There's no minimum commitment, so you can find a rhythm that works for your family.

How long are the tutoring sessions?

Most sessions are an hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths by discussing it with your tutor.

Do you only offer tutoring for academic subjects like Maths?

While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we also help students explore other passions! You can find expert tutors for everything from learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python and mastering new languages.
