Laura W
Laura has been a wonderful support for my daughter throughout her A level sociology course. Lessons were tailored to support her learning needs and the additional information that Laura provided was invaluable. Laura is a kind, caring and diligent tutor who I would not hesitate to recommend. She cares about her students and offers positive support and guidance - often going beyond the tutorial time to mark additional work and offer advice. Thank you Laura for everything - particularly inspiring Al to study sociology at university and helping her to achieve a grade well above what she was predicted!

We are incredibly grateful to have found such a dedicated and inspiring tutor. He is not only enthusiastic and kind, but also a genuinely lovely person who brings energy and positivity to every lesson. His teaching style makes learning enjoyable and engaging, and my daughter has flourished under his guidance.
He has went above and beyond to help her tackle challenging topics throughout her course, always providing thoughtful explanations and incredibly useful resources for exam revision. Thanks to his support and commitment, my daughter has already achieved an A* halfway through the course!
We deeply appreciate the time, effort, and care he has invested in her progress. I would wholeheartedly and immensely recommend him to any sociology student seeking exceptional support. We truly cannot thank him enough.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Is A-Level Sociology respected by universities?
Definitely. Some worry it’s a ‘soft option’, but universities see it as a serious academic subject. It develops critical thinking, research skills, and the ability to build strong arguments—skills that are valued for degrees like Law, Economics, Politics, and other humanities or social sciences.
How do tutors handle political topics fairly?
A good A-Level Sociology tutor shows all sides of a debate. They’ll guide your child through perspectives like Marxism, Feminism, and Functionalism, teaching them to analyse and evaluate ideas without bias. This helps students write balanced, evidence-based essays, exactly what examiners are looking for.
My child finds the jump from GCSE overwhelming. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. The step up in theory can feel like a lot at first. A tutor breaks down complex ideas, explains key studies, and helps organise sociologists’ names and terms. They’ll also show how to apply theories to real-world examples and improve essay-writing skills, making the transition far more manageable.
Can Sociology help with UCAS for non-sociology degrees?
Yes! Sociology teaches highly transferable skills: critical thinking, analysis, data interpretation, and persuasive argument writing. Tutors can help your child highlight these in their UCAS personal statement, showing universities that they’re capable, thoughtful, and well-prepared, whatever degree they choose.
When should my child start tutoring?
Starting in Year 12 is great for building a solid foundation in theories and research methods. But even in Year 13, tutoring can help manage the ‘100% essay problem’ and revision pressure. At any stage, a tutor can guide exam technique, boost confidence, and ensure knowledge is applied effectively under pressure.
How does online tutoring work?
Online lessons are flexible and easy to fit into busy schedules. Your child connects with their tutor via video chat, with interactive whiteboards and document sharing. Lessons feel personal and engaging, even from the comfort of home.
Can we choose our tutor?
Yes! Tutorful lets you browse tutor profiles, read reviews, and message them before booking. This helps you find the right tutor who matches your child’s learning style and needs, ensuring a supportive and productive tutoring experience.
