* Book your child in for SUMMER BOOSTER sessions TODAY*- I have had a HUGE increase this year in last minute requests for support, even for the day before the exam...- Many of these young people have been worrying about their GCSEs and A Levels behind closed doors and parents have realised too late that they need support.- If your child is in secondary school or 6th form now and you have any doubt about their independent study skills please consider summer sessions.- I hear all too often that the young people I am working with do not have the skills in order to attempt independent study.

Brilliant Politics tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child is hoping to study Politics at the University of Plymouth. Can a tutor help with their application?
Absolutely. Many of our Politics tutors are experienced in supporting students with university applications, including personal statements and interview preparation. They can help your child articulate their passion for the subject and build the deeper knowledge needed to stand out for competitive courses.
Schools in Plymouth have different levels of support for Politics. How can a tutor fill the gaps?
We hear this a lot, and it's where one-to-one tutoring really shines. A tutor can create a programme tailored specifically to your child, strengthening areas where their school teaching might be lighter, exploring topics in greater depth, and providing the focused support needed to ensure they're on a level playing field.
Is online tutoring as effective as face-to-face for a subject like Politics?
Yes, and in many ways, it's better. Our online classroom has interactive tools perfect for analysing sources and mapping out arguments. More importantly, it gives your child in Plymouth access to a far wider range of specialists—from experts in US politics to international relations—than you could ever find locally.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first Politics tutor?
Finding the right personality match is everything. We want your child to feel comfortable and inspired. If the first session with a tutor isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.
Are your Politics tutors qualified to teach A-Level?
Yes. We have a large selection of tutors with extensive experience teaching Politics at GCSE and A-Level. Many have degrees in Politics or related fields from top universities and are experts in the specific requirements of exam boards like AQA and Edexcel. You can view each tutor's full experience on their profile.
Can a tutor help my child connect their studies to Plymouth's political history?
What a great idea! Whilst not all tutors will be local history experts, many are skilled at helping students apply broad political concepts to specific examples. They could certainly guide your child in researching and analysing the significance of local figures like Nancy Astor or the political impact of the naval dockyard.
How much do online Politics lessons cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £25 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study (e.g., A-Level vs. GCSE). You can filter tutors by price on our website to find a great match for your budget.
How do you match my child with the right Politics tutor?
We make it easy for you to find the perfect fit. You can use our search filters to find tutors with the right experience for your child's level and specific needs. You can also read detailed profiles, watch introductory videos, and message tutors directly before booking to ensure they're the right person to support your child.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Communication is key. Our tutors provide regular feedback on your child's development, highlighting areas of improvement and focusing on next steps. You'll also see it in your child's growing confidence, their ability to articulate arguments, and, of course, their improving marks at school.
How flexible is scheduling for lessons?
Very flexible. You can see each tutor's availability on their profile and book slots that fit around your family's commitments, whether it's after school, on weekends, or during the holidays. Online tutoring is designed to work for busy families.
What does my child need for an online lesson?
It's simple. All they need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, a stable internet connection, and a quiet place to focus. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no software to download.
How much do online Politics lessons cost?
We do! We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects. So, if your child also needs support in History or English to strengthen their essay writing, or wants to learn a completely new skill like coding or playing the guitar, we have expert tutors ready to help.
