My first session with Richard was excellent. He is a very supportive tutor who makes learning clear and engaging, and I already feel more confident after just one lesson.

Alan H
I wanted to share how much we appreciate the extra GCSE Science lessons Alan has been providing. My son has mentioned that the sessions are giving him a really solid understanding of the sciences, especially chemistry, which is helping him a lot with his revision. The one-on-one format is making a big difference—he finds it much easier to concentrate and is learning far more effectively. He’s even remembering things better, which shows how impactful Alan's teaching has been. Thank you for your dedication and support; it’s clearly making a positive difference.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

asked questions

Are your tutors familiar with the curriculum taught in Pelton schools like Park View?
Many of our tutors are experienced with the national curriculum used in schools across the country, including those in Pelton. When you search, you can view tutors' profiles to see their specific experience with exam boards like AQA and Edexcel, ensuring you find someone who understands what your child needs to succeed in their GCSEs.
My child wants to go to New College Durham. Can you help them get the right grades?
Yes, that's a very common goal for families we help in the Pelton area. Our tutors can focus specifically on the subjects and grades your child needs for their desired A-Level or vocational courses at college. They can help build a strong academic foundation to make that transition a smooth and successful one.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective! Your child and their tutor meet in our specially designed online classroom. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a way to share documents. It’s all the benefit of one-to-one attention, but with the convenience of learning from home.
Can tutoring really help my child improve their GCSE grades?
Absolutely. We see fantastic results. 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade. For GCSEs specifically, our data shows we can help students improve by up to two grades, with the average time to move up one grade being just eight hours of tailored tuition.
How do I know I’m choosing a good tutor?
We take the quality of our tutors very seriously. Every tutor is interviewed and vetted by our team, and we only accept 1 in 8 applicants. You can also read detailed reviews from other parents on each tutor's profile to help you find the perfect match for your child.
What if we're not happy with the first lesson?
We want you to be completely happy with your choice. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the tutor isn't the right fit after the first session, let us know by emailing support@tutorful.co.uk, and we'll pay for your first lesson with another tutor.
How much do online tutors cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience, subject, and level. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you simply pay for the lessons you book. This transparency helps you find great support that fits your budget.
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 can discuss what's best for your child's goals with your tutor. Some students may have more frequent lessons leading up to an exam, for example.
Do you offer tutoring for subjects like music or learning an instrument?
Yes, we do! Learning isn't just about core academic subjects. We have a wide range of talented tutors who teach instruments like guitar and piano, as well as music theory. It's a wonderful way for your child to explore their creativity and develop a new skill.
How do you ensure lessons are safe for my child?
Your child's safety is our top priority. All tutors undergo a background check. Furthermore, all lessons take place through our secure online classroom, and communications are handled through our platform, creating a safe and controlled learning environment.
How long does it take to find a tutor?
You can get started right away. Simply search for your subject, browse the profiles of available tutors, and send a message to the ones you think would be a good fit. Many tutors respond within a few hours, and you could have your first lesson booked in just a day or two.
