Amirhossein S
Amir has been and continues to be fantastic.In a very short period of time (weeks) he has taken my son up a grade/grade and a half in both maths and computer science. We shall most definitely be continuing with Amir up to my son’s A levels and now fully expect him to achieve As in both. My son even said the other day that if he had had Amir a year ago, he could have even studied further maths. The confidence Amir has given my son back is quite something. I am very grateful to Amir, he is a very great tutor.

asked questions
See all FAQs
How do I choose the best Maths tutor for my child?
Finding the right fit is key. We recommend watching tutors' introduction videos, reading reviews from other parents, and using our free messaging service to chat with a few before booking. It helps you get a feel for their teaching style and personality to ensure it's a good match for your child.
My child hopes to study at the University of Edinburgh. Can a Maths tutor help?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with their UCAS applications and preparing them for the specific demands of university-level study. You can find tutors with experience in Advanced Highers and the specific topics needed for competitive courses.
We are preparing for entrance exams for schools like George Heriot's School. Can we find a specialist?
Yes, you can. Our platform allows you to filter for tutors with specific experience in entrance exam preparation, including the 11+. You can message them to discuss your child's specific needs and the requirements for schools in the Edinburgh area.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't get on with your first 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 tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor must pass a background check before they can teach on our platform. We also have a rigorous selection process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring your child is learning from the best.
How do the online lessons work?
Our lessons take place in a purpose-built online classroom. It features an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing, allowing your child and their tutor to work through problems together in real-time, just as they would in person.
Can a tutor help if my child's confidence in Maths is low?
Definitely. This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. A tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of being wrong. This patient, personalised support is often the key to rebuilding their confidence.
What kind of results can we expect?
While every child's journey is unique, we're proud that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Our goal is to help your child not only understand Maths better but also develop a more positive attitude towards learning.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families start with one lesson a week to build momentum and consistency. However, the frequency is completely up to you. You can schedule lessons as often as you need, whether it's for regular support or a few extra sessions before an exam.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can I find tutors for skills like coding or music?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Beyond core academic subjects like Maths and English, you can find expert tutors for everything from learning the guitar and speaking Spanish to coding in Python and music theory.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide feedback after each session, which you can see in your account. We also encourage open communication, so you can message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's progress and goals.
