Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is in a Welsh-medium school in Pontypridd. Can a tutor support their phonics learning?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience supporting children in both Welsh and English-medium education. You can filter for tutors with specific language skills or mention this in your initial message to find the perfect expert to support your child's bilingual journey.

We're worried our child is falling behind their classmates at their Pontypridd primary school. How quickly can tutoring help?

It's a common concern, and you're taking a great first step. One-to-one attention can make a huge difference right away. A tutor can quickly identify the specific sounds or rules your child is struggling with and create a plan to help them catch up and feel more confident in class.

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

It's simple to find a great match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's needs before booking. Finding someone your child clicks with is key to building their confidence.

How much does online Phonics tutoring cost?

Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £20-£45 per hour depending on their experience. You can easily filter by price on our search page to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect fit, which is why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just 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? What technology do we need?

All you need is a laptop or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes an interactive whiteboard to make learning engaging and fun for your child.

Are your 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. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

Confidence comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, there's no fear of 'getting it wrong' in front of classmates. Our tutors create a positive, encouraging environment where your child can build skills at their own pace, celebrating every small win along the way.

How long should a tutoring session be for a young child learning Phonics?

For younger children, we often find that shorter, more frequent sessions of 30 to 45 minutes work best to keep them engaged. However, our tutors are flexible and can work with you to find a lesson length that best suits your child's concentration span.

How can I track my child's progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you updated on what they've been working on and how your child is progressing. You can also message your tutor at any time to ask questions or discuss their learning goals.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Beyond core academics, your child can learn a musical instrument like the guitar, a new language, or even practical skills like coding. It's a great way to support their hobbies and personal development.

How many other parents use Tutorful?

You're in good company! Over 200,000 students have found success with our tutors, and we're proud to have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews from parents just like you.
