Phil T
Phil has been a brilliant tutor and we have worked with him on and off over the last fifteen months when my son has needed the support with his maths. He has tailored every session around my son's needs, he has given me regular updates on what they have covered and why and sought updates from me to better support my son. My son has always found Phil's sessions engaging and helpful, and he has really enjoyed working with him. Would highly recommend Phil to other students. Thanks Phil!

We’ve had a great experience with Momna. Lessons are well structured, age-appropriate, and explained in a way that really makes sense to a primary school child. The tutor is patient, encouraging, and takes time to check understanding rather than rushing through topics.

Cedra J
Miss Cedra has been tutoring my y10 daughter for a few weeks now and she is finding the support super helpful. My daughter had a retest and said she found answering the 8 mark questions much easier and felt a lot more confident in some of the areas she was struggling. Would definitely recommend Miss Cedra as she has a wide knowledge on subjects and is patient and attentive.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at Cottenham Village College. Can a tutor help them aim for a top grade 8 or 9 in Maths to get into Hills Road or Long Road?
Absolutely. This is a very common goal for families we support in your area. Our tutors specialise in helping students move from a good grade to a top one. They can focus on exam technique, problem-solving skills, and mastering the advanced topics needed to secure those crucial 8s and 9s for competitive sixth form entry.
We're worried about the step up to A-Level Maths. Can a tutor prepare my child for the more demanding courses?
Yes, many of our tutors are A-Level specialists who can help bridge the gap between GCSE and sixth form study. They can pre-teach key A-Level topics, build problem-solving confidence, and ensure your child starts their new courses at Hills Road, Long Road, or elsewhere feeling prepared and ahead of the curve.
How do I choose the right Maths tutor for my child?
It’s all about finding the right fit. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is key to building their confidence.
How much does online Maths tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can filter by price to find someone who fits your budget. Tutors set their own rates, giving you a wide range of options to choose from.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in Maths?
Confidence is everything. In a one-to-one setting, there are no silly questions. A tutor creates a safe, patient environment where your child can build their self-belief, one topic at a time. This positive experience often has a wonderful impact on their attitude towards learning in general.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an ID check and a background check. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
What happens if we don't like the first tutor we try?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is 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.
Can tutoring really improve my child's GCSE Maths grade?
Yes, it really can. Our data shows that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, with our platform helping to boost GCSE results by up to two grades. The personalised attention makes a significant difference.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It has all the tools needed for a fun and engaging lesson, all from the comfort of your home.
How long will my child need a tutor for?
This completely depends on your child's goals. Some students need a few sessions to prepare for an exam, while others benefit from weekly support throughout the school year. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor, with no long-term commitment required.
What happens in a typical one-hour Maths lesson?
Every lesson is tailored to your child. A tutor might start by reviewing homework, then move on to explaining a new concept using the interactive whiteboard, and finish by working through practice exam questions together. The focus is always on what your child needs most at that moment.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring for a huge range of pursuits, not just academic subjects. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding in Python, or learn a new language, you can find expert tutors to help them explore their passions.
