Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends Littleover Community School. Can a tutor help them aim for a top GCSE grade?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and specialise in helping students secure top grades (7-9). They can focus on the specific areas your child needs to strengthen, from mastering complex algebra to perfecting their exam technique, to help them meet the high standards of Derby's best schools.
My child is considering a STEM degree at Loughborough. Can a tutor support this ambition?
Yes, we have many tutors who are graduates from top universities themselves and have experience supporting students with university ambitions. They can help your child build the strong mathematical foundation needed for a demanding STEM degree, ensuring they are confident and well-prepared for their A-Levels and beyond.
How do I choose the right Maths tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles, watch their introduction videos, and check reviews from other parents to get a feel for their teaching style. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important step.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does an online Maths tutor in Derby cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary based on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts – you simply pay as you go for the lessons you book.
How do you make sure tutors are safe to work with children?
Your child's safety is our absolute priority. Every UK-based tutor must provide a valid DBS check or equivalent background check before they can teach on our platform. We also personally interview every tutor to ensure they are professional, passionate, and great at what they do.
Can a tutor help if my child has lost their confidence in Maths?
Yes, this is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. A one-to-one tutor can provide a patient, encouraging environment where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Rebuilding that confidence is often the first step to making real progress.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing, so your child and their tutor can work through problems together just as they would in person. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You might want to arrange more sessions in the run-up to an important exam, or fewer during school holidays. You can discuss what's best with your tutor.
Can we get help specifically with GCSE exam technique?
Definitely. Our Maths tutors are brilliant at helping students prepare for exams. They can work through past papers, teach your child how to manage their time effectively, and show them how to structure answers to gain maximum marks.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide you with regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also see their confidence grow as they start to feel more comfortable with topics they once found difficult. Many parents tell us they see a positive change in their child's attitude towards schoolwork.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we're well known for core subjects like Maths and English, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding in Python, or even learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help.
