Gemma P
Gemma started tutoring my 9 year old daughter in English and Maths last September. At this point my daughter was having many struggles academically and had lost all confidence and no longer wanted to try to achieve good marks at school.
Nearly a year on and having just received her school summer report I am ecstatic to read a 100% turnaround.
Both my daughter’s maths and English teachers have stated how proud she should be of how far she has progressed in just one year and the change in her confidence and abilities and how they have grown.
Previously scoring below average, my daughter is now scoring higher than average.
This is down to this amazing tutor Gemma, my daughter has ADHD and suffers with concentration and remaining in the zone for periods of time. Gemma has built her confidence to attempt work independently and has been so patient with her even when her concentration has lacked and has done her upmost to keep her engagement.
I am eternally grateful as Gemma reversed my daughters outlook on school work and is has been fantastic to watch her strive thanks to her tutoring.
My daughter looks forward to her sessions, Gemma had a natural ability to relate with your child that clearly makes learning enjoyable and not a chore.
I am that pleased with the progress made that even though we are relocating to Cyprus I am continuing sessions with Gemma.
The biggest thank you Gemma, your hard work and dedication to supporting children is commendable and I would strongly recommend your teaching skills to all parents out there looking to support their child’s academic growth and understanding.
I have seen my child excel under Gemma, I would look no further this teacher is the one!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My goal is for my child to feel prepared for a school like The Costello School. Can a tutor help?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors can focus on the core Maths, English, and Science skills your child will need for a smooth and confident transition to Year 7. They work to build both academic knowledge and self-belief, which are key for thriving in secondary school.
We're thinking long-term about Queen Mary's College. How can Primary tutoring help now?
Building strong foundational skills and a genuine enjoyment of learning in primary school is the best preparation for future success. A tutor can help your child develop the curiosity and study habits that will serve them well all the way through their GCSEs and on to A-Levels.
How do I choose the right Primary tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and goals.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right fit is important. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
Are the tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has a valid DBS background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence?
A one-to-one tutor can provide a safe and encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. By breaking down topics into manageable steps and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild your child's self-esteem and rediscover their love of learning.
How much does online Primary tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and engaging. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard for drawing and writing, and a tool for sharing documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How long will it be until we see progress?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the personalised attention of one-to-one tutoring often leads to noticeable improvements quite quickly. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions.
Do you offer tutoring for hobbies, like learning guitar or coding?
Absolutely! We have expert tutors for a huge range of subjects beyond the curriculum, including music, coding, languages, and art. It's a great way for your child to explore new interests and develop new skills.
What happens in a typical Primary tutoring session?
The tutor will tailor the session to your child's needs. It might involve working through homework together, practising specific skills like multiplication, exploring a topic in more detail than in school, or preparing for an upcoming test in a fun and engaging way.
Can I track my child's progress?
Yes. You can message your child's tutor at any time to get feedback on their progress. Many tutors also provide regular updates on what was covered in a session and what the plan is for future lessons, so you're always kept in the loop.
