It demonstrates creativity, technical skill, and a unique point of view – qualities highly valued by universities and employers in the creative industries. Whether they’re preparing for A-Levels, aiming for a place at a specialist art school, or simply developing a lifelong skill, mastering concepts like composition, lighting, and digital editing gives them a powerful way to express themselves and build a future they’re passionate about.

Personalised Photography Support to Help Your Child Thrive

The right tutor is a mentor who takes the time to understand your child’s unique creative vision. They'll get to know what inspires them—whether it's capturing the wildlife in the New Forest or creating abstract images—and tailor their teaching style to match. This personal connection makes learning feel supportive and encouraging, helping your child find their own artistic voice. Every one-to-one session is designed around what your child needs to work on right now. If they need to build a portfolio for a college application, lessons can focus on curating their best work and developing advanced techniques. If they're struggling with the technical side of their camera, the tutor can break down complex concepts like shutter speed and ISO into simple, practical steps. Finding the perfect tutor is simple, and because all our lessons are online, they can fit easily around your family’s schedule. There’s no need to travel, and you can find a specialist who has experience helping students get into top creative institutions. It's expert support for your child, right from your own home.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a tutor help my child prepare a portfolio specifically for Brockenhurst College?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our Photography tutors have experience guiding students through the portfolio process for college applications. You can read tutor profiles and message them before booking to find someone who understands the requirements and can help your child showcase their best work.

My child is hoping to apply to Arts University Bournemouth. Can I find a tutor with that kind of experience?

Yes. We have tutors with a wide range of backgrounds, including experience at the university level. You can use our search filters to look for tutors who have studied or taught at a higher level and can provide the specialist guidance needed for a competitive application to an institution like AUB.

How do I pick the right Photography tutor for my child?

The best place to start is by reading the tutor profiles. You can see their experience, qualifications, and what other parents have said about them. We recommend sending messages to a few tutors to discuss your child's goals. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important step.

How much do online Photography tutors cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced tutor who fits your budget.

How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. We are very selective; only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted. Every tutor undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an ID check and a background check, so you can have complete peace of mind.

What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?

We know that the right personal connection is key to learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we help thousands of students with academic subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also have amazing tutors for a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn guitar, master coding in Python, or even learn a new language, we can help them pursue their passion.

How does online tutoring work? What do we need?

All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom, which includes an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing features, making it easy to review images and techniques.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence, not just their technique?

One-to-one tutoring provides a safe space for your child to ask questions without feeling self-conscious. A great tutor celebrates small wins and provides constant, positive encouragement, which can make a huge difference to your child’s self-belief, both in photography and beyond.

Can we get help with specific software, like Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom?

Yes, many of our Photography tutors are experts in post-production software. You can check their profiles for details on which programs they specialise in, ensuring your child gets practical, hands-on help with the editing skills they need to make their photos stand out.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that a one-hour lesson once a week works best, as it provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, the schedule is completely flexible. You and your tutor can decide on a frequency that best suits your child's goals and your family's routine.

How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?

You can start looking for a tutor right away. Many parents are able to find the right match and have their first lesson booked within 24 hours. Simply browse our tutors, send a message to check their availability, and you can get started.
