Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is worried about competing for a place on a STEM course at the University of Edinburgh or Heriot-Watt. Can a tutor help?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in preparing students for competitive university applications. They can help your child master the advanced Higher Maths topics required for STEM courses and build the deep conceptual understanding that admissions tutors look for.

We live in Midlothian and feel the pressure from nearby competitive schools. Can a tutor help my child keep up and feel confident?

Yes, this is a common reason parents come to us. A personal tutor can provide a calm, supportive space away from classroom pressures. They can reinforce what’s taught at school, fill any knowledge gaps, and give your child the tools and confidence to excel, no matter how competitive the environment is.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ask about their experience with the Scottish curriculum.

Are the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID verified. We interview every applicant and are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.

How much does a Maths tutor in Midlothian cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary based on their experience and qualifications. You can see the price per hour clearly on each tutor's profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

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 for working through problems together, and a way to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

Can a tutor help with Maths anxiety?

Definitely. A one-to-one tutor can be brilliant for helping a child overcome Maths anxiety. They create a patient and encouraging environment where your child can work at their own pace and ask questions without feeling self-conscious, rebuilding their confidence step-by-step.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you in the loop. You'll also see your child's confidence grow as they start to master topics they once found tricky. Many parents tell us they see a positive change in their child's attitude towards Maths within just a few sessions.

How long does a typical tutoring session last?

The standard session length is one hour, which most families find works perfectly. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your tutor if your child would benefit from a shorter or longer lesson.

Do we need any special equipment for online lessons?

Not at all. A standard computer or laptop with a webcam, microphone, and a good internet connection is all that's needed. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no complicated software to install.

Is Tutorful just for school subjects like Maths, or could my child learn something else, like coding or playing the guitar?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we're here to help with core academics from Primary through to university level, we also have brilliant tutors who can teach practical skills like coding, learning a musical instrument like the guitar, or even a new language.
