Geoffrey explained mechanics clearly and patiently. My daughter felt a lot more confident in the topics she was unsure of after Geoffrey’s lessons.

They can focus on the specific Mechanics topics and problem-solving skills needed to achieve the grades for competitive courses at universities like Strathclyde, Glasgow, and Edinburgh, giving your child the best possible chance of success.

Can tutors help with the Scottish SQA curriculum for Higher and Advanced Higher Mechanics?

Yes. We have many tutors who are specialists in the Scottish curriculum. You can view each tutor's profile to see their experience with SQA qualifications, including National 5, Highers, and Advanced Highers, ensuring your child gets relevant and effective support.

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

It's easy to find the perfect match on our platform. You can read detailed tutor profiles, check their qualifications and experience, and see reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking to make sure you find someone you're both comfortable with.

How much do online Mechanics tutors cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or complicated contracts.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

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 online lessons work?

Our lessons take place in a purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. This means your child can work through complex Mechanics problems with their tutor in real-time, just as they would in person.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS check (or the Scottish equivalent, a PVG scheme membership). We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.

How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in Mechanics?

Confidence often comes from understanding. A tutor can break down complex topics into smaller, more manageable parts. By providing patient, one-to-one encouragement and celebrating small wins, they help your child see that they are capable of mastering the subject, which can transform their attitude towards learning.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we have fantastic tutors for academic subjects from Primary up to degree level, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. Your child could learn a new language, master a musical instrument like the guitar, or even get help with practical skills like coding.

How many lessons will my child need?

This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Some families book a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others prefer regular weekly lessons to provide ongoing support throughout the school year. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. We encourage open communication between parents and tutors. You can message your child's tutor at any time to get feedback on their progress and discuss how the lessons are going. Many tutors also provide session feedback to keep you in the loop.

How quickly can we get started?

You can get started very quickly. Simply search for a tutor, send them a message to check their availability, and you could have your first lesson booked within 24 hours. It's a straightforward way to find the support your child needs, right when they need it.
