Hi, my name is Thomas, nice to meet you.At my secondary school, I had 4A and a B grade at A-level (A grades in Physics, Chemistry, Maths and Further Maths, and a B grade in Biology - A* grades weren't available at the time), which led to admission at Oxford University to read Chemistry (MChem degree at St. John's College).

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a STEM degree at the University of Oxford. Can a tutor help prepare them?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our Physics tutors are graduates from top UK universities themselves and have first-hand experience with the application process. They can help your child master the A-Level content needed to achieve the highest grades and can also provide support with university entrance exam preparation and interview practice.

The curriculum at schools like Cherwell and Magdalen College School is very demanding. Can tutors match this level?

Yes. We have a wide range of highly qualified tutors, including experienced teachers, examiners, and subject specialists. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. You can view each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile to find someone who is a perfect fit for the academic rigour your child is used to.

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

It’s really important to find someone your child connects with. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send messages to tutors before booking. This helps you get a feel for their teaching style and personality to ensure they're the right fit for your child's needs.

How much does an online Physics tutor in Oxford cost?

The cost varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Prices are set by the individual tutors and are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an expert tutor who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How does online tutoring actually work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a shared whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. This means they can work through tricky physics problems, analyse diagrams, and review past papers together in real-time, just as they would in person.

My child's confidence in Physics is low. Can a tutor help with that?

Building confidence is one of the greatest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. In a private, supportive space, your child can ask questions they might be afraid to ask in class. Celebrating small wins and patiently working through challenges helps them see they are capable, which has a huge impact on their self-belief.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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.

Are your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one to ensure they are of the highest quality. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How quickly can my child start their first lesson?

You can start very quickly. Many of our tutors can offer a lesson within a few days. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to arrange a time that works for you, and book your first session directly through their profile.

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

While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like Physics, Maths, and English, we also offer a huge range of other skills. Your child can learn everything from coding languages like Python to playing the guitar, learning a new language, or even public speaking.

How long are the tutoring sessions?

Lessons are typically one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor, as many are happy to offer longer or shorter sessions depending on your child's needs.

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

We understand that life can be unpredictable. You can easily manage your schedule through the platform. Most tutors have a 24-hour cancellation policy, allowing you to reschedule a lesson without charge as long as you give them enough notice. You can check your tutor's specific policy on their profile.
