Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to study at Sunderland College. Can a tutor help them get the required GCSE Maths grade?

Absolutely. Many of our Maths tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and have a proven track record of helping students secure the grades they need for college places. They can focus on the specific areas your child finds challenging to build their skills and confidence for exam day.

We're aiming for a competitive university like Durham or Newcastle. Can a Maths tutor support this goal?

Yes. For students with high ambitions, a tutor can be invaluable. Our A-Level Maths tutors can provide the stretch and challenge needed to aim for top grades, helping your child develop the deep subject knowledge and problem-solving skills that admissions tutors at universities like Durham and Newcastle look for.

How do I choose the right Maths tutor for my child?

You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding a personality and teaching style that your child will respond to.

How do you ensure tutors are safe to work with children?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has been interviewed by our team and has passed an enhanced background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How much does an online Maths tutor cost in Sunderland?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your budget.

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 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 does online tutoring work?

It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a shared whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.

Can a tutor help my child build confidence in Maths?

Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe, encouraging space where your child can make mistakes without fear of judgement. By breaking down difficult concepts and celebrating small wins, they help build your child's self-belief.

How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's results?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our experience shows that consistent, tailored support makes a real difference. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The biggest change parents often notice first is a boost in their child's confidence and attitude towards the subject.

Are the tutors familiar with the GCSE Maths curriculum?

Yes, many of our tutors are specialists in the GCSE Maths curriculum across all major exam boards (like AQA, Edexcel, and OCR). You can check their profiles for specific experience and ask them directly when you message them.

What happens in a typical Maths tutoring session?

Sessions are tailored to your child's needs. A tutor might start by reviewing homework, then introduce a new concept using the interactive whiteboard to work through examples, and finish by setting practice questions to consolidate learning. It's always focused on your child's specific goals.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something like coding or a musical instrument?

While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like Maths and English, we believe in learning for life. You can also find expert tutors for hundreds of other skills, from learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to coding in Python.
