Sarah H
My son has had a couple of lessons with Sarah and so far we have found her lessons very beneficial. Her knowledge base is strong and she is able to pace the lesson depending upon the knowledge of the pupil in the subject/topic. She seems well-versed in preparation for GCSE subjects. My son is doing physics and chemistry with her. We have got a number of other sessions planned with her and I will share further review after them.

Conor D
Connor has been working with my son for a month now on GCSE Physics prep, and the impact has been fantastic. My son is aiming to move from a Grade 7 to an 8 or 9 in preparation for A-Level, and Connor’s deep subject knowledge is making that goal feel very achievable. He is incredibly friendly and supportive, and my son genuinely enjoys his weekly sessions. He feels he is effectively closing his knowledge gaps and gaining a lot of confidence. Highly recommended!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for Torquay Boys' or Girls' Grammar School. Can a tutor help with that level of Physics?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are highly experienced in helping students meet the demands of competitive school environments. They can focus on the specific problem-solving skills and in-depth understanding required to excel in the challenging curriculum at schools like these.
Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE Physics grade they need for a competitive sixth form place?
Yes, this is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. Our tutors are experts at helping students consolidate their knowledge and refine their exam technique. In fact, our data shows we can help improve a child's GCSE results by up to two grades, giving them a much stronger foundation for A-Level study.
How do I choose the right Physics tutor for my child?
It's a really personal choice, and we make it easy for you to decide. You can read reviews from other parents, watch short introductory videos to get a feel for a tutor's teaching style, and message them for free to discuss your child's specific needs before booking a lesson.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for your child's learning. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. 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 does online tutoring actually work?
It’s very straightforward! Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It’s a dynamic and engaging way for your child to learn directly with their tutor, no matter where you are.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is identity and background-checked, and we interview every single one. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How much does an online Physics tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. All prices are clearly displayed on their profiles with no hidden costs.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in Physics?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. Tutors can break down complex topics into manageable steps and celebrate their progress, which makes a huge difference to their self-belief.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we help thousands of students with academic subjects like Physics, Maths, and English, we also have expert tutors for a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, speak Spanish, or get started with coding, we can help.
How often should my child have a lesson?
It's completely flexible and depends on your child's goals. Most families find a regular weekly session works well for consistent progress, but you can schedule lessons more or less frequently to suit your needs, especially around exam time.
What if my child has fallen really far behind?
That's perfectly okay, and it's a situation our tutors are very experienced with. A tutor can take the time to go back to basics, identify any gaps in your child's knowledge, and build their understanding back up from a solid foundation, all at a pace that works for them.
How much does an online Physics tutor cost?
The most common session length is one hour, as this gives enough time to dig into a topic properly without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best.
