Online Portuguese Tutors in Basingstoke to Help Your Child Gain a Qualification

Turn Your Child's Heritage Language into a University Advantage
A formal qualification in Portuguese does more than just recognise your child's language skills; it makes their UCAS application stand out.

It opens doors to international careers and shows top universities that your child has the dedication to master a valuable global language, giving them a clear advantage.

Need a bit of help with Portuguese? I'm here to help.
I've started teaching KS3, KS4 and KS5 eleven years ago. I have had a lot of experience working with students. It has always been my aim to make my classroom practice accessible to all students regardless of their needs and would differentiate tasks and learning styles to cater for their needs. I would consider myself a creative teacher as I would always try to find practical hands-on ways to teach which would help SEN students to learn and relate to what the topics being studied. I have experience working both with large and small groups of people.Before going into teaching I was working in businesses...

George has been tutoring my 10 year old son and he managed to captivate his interest in the language.
George find similarities on the 2 languages and that makes it much easier to learn.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child's school in Basingstoke doesn't offer Portuguese GCSE. Can a tutor help them get a qualification?
Yes, absolutely. This is a common reason parents come to us. Our tutors can provide full support for your child to study the syllabus and prepare to sit the exam as a private candidate, ensuring their language skills are formally recognised.
Can a tutor help my child with their university application for a language course at Southampton?
Definitely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students with their UCAS applications. They can help your child craft a personal statement that showcases their passion for languages and prepare them for any potential interviews, making their application as strong as possible.
How do I choose the right Portuguese tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can read detailed tutor profiles, check qualifications, and see reviews from other parents. Many tutors also have short introductory videos so you and your child can get a feel for their teaching style. You can even message them before booking to discuss your child's needs.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. 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 can a tutor help if my child is shy about speaking Portuguese?
The one-to-one online environment is a safe and encouraging space for your child to practise speaking without the pressure of a classroom. Tutors are brilliant at building confidence, celebrating small wins, and helping your child find their voice.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our highest priority. We interview every tutor and they all undergo a thorough background check, including an ID check and a DBS check. We're very selective, and only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply is accepted onto our platform.
How much does online Portuguese tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, and you can filter your search by price. There are no hidden costs or extra fees.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and file sharing. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn, allowing them to collaborate with their tutor in real-time, just as they would in person.
Is Tutorful only for academic subjects like Portuguese?
Not at all! While we love helping with academic subjects from Primary up to degree level, we also have amazing tutors who can teach practical skills and hobbies. Your child could learn anything from coding and guitar to public speaking.
How often should my child have lessons?
It’s completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Most families find a weekly session works well to build momentum, but you can schedule lessons as often as you like. It's flexible to fit around your family's schedule.
What kind of results can we expect?
We're proud to have helped over 200,000 students achieve their goals. While every child's journey is unique, we find our approach really works – 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one academic grade.
What equipment do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop, desktop, or tablet with a stable internet connection, a microphone, and a webcam. No special software is needed as everything runs in your web browser.
