Primary education isn't just about the basics; it's about building the core skills and confidence your child will carry with them into secondary school and beyond. Strong foundations in maths and English are the bedrock for tackling the verbal and non-verbal reasoning challenges of the 11+ and other entrance exams. When your child truly grasps fractions or can analyse a text with confidence, they're not just preparing for a test – they're becoming a more capable, resilient learner, ready for any challenge Dulwich schools might present.

How Online Tutoring Gives Your Dulwich Child the Edge
The right support starts with real understanding. Our tutors take the time to discover how your child learns, what sparks their curiosity, and where those little wobbles in confidence begin. We've helped over 200,000 students, and we know that when a child feels seen and supported, their belief in their own ability grows. It’s a partnership that turns 'I can't' into 'I'll try'. Forget one-size-fits-all worksheets. A Tutorful session is built entirely around your child. Is it a tricky maths problem that's causing frustration? Their tutor will find a new way to explain it. Are they struggling with story structure? They’ll explore it together, step-by-step. This one-to-one focus helps fill any gaps and ensures your child is building a solid understanding, preparing them for future academic success without the pressure. From your home in Dulwich, your child can connect with the very best primary tutors from across the UK – not just whoever is local. This opens up a world of choice. Lessons fit around your family's schedule, with no travel and no stress. It's focused, flexible support designed to work for you, giving your child the best possible preparation for their next chapter.

Emma S
Emma has been an invaluable asset to my 10-year-old daughter’s education over the past three months. She very quick to identify my child's specific learning style, and we saw a genuine difference in school assessment results within just four weeks.
Beyond the grades, the boost in my daughter’s confidence has been fantastic to see. Emma is patient, fun, and highly supportive, making every lesson something my daughter truly enjoys. She provides productive feedback and guidance that has been helpful for both of us. I am so glad we found her and would 100% recommend her to any parent looking for an effective and engaging tutor

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We live in Dulwich and are worried about the 11+ for schools like Alleyn's. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. This is a common focus for many families we support. Our expert tutors can help your child build the core maths and English skills, as well as the critical thinking and problem-solving abilities needed for the 11+ and independent school entrance exams. They focus on building deep understanding and confidence, not just rote learning.
Are your tutors familiar with the curriculum taught in Dulwich primary schools?
Our tutors are experts in the UK national curriculum for primary education, which forms the basis of learning in all state schools, including those in Dulwich. For independent schools, they can tailor sessions to cover specific areas of focus or advanced topics relevant to their entrance requirements, ensuring a seamless fit with your child's education.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place via video call in our online classroom, which features an interactive whiteboard. Your child can talk with their tutor, share their screen, and work on problems together in real-time. All they need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
What if my child doesn't click with the first tutor we try?
Finding the right personality match is crucial. We have a first lesson guarantee to ensure you do. 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.
How do you select your primary tutors?
We're very selective. Only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed, and has proven expertise in their subject. We look for passionate educators who know how to make learning engaging and effective for young minds.
My child is quite shy. Will online tutoring work for them?
Many parents find online tutoring is brilliant for shyer children. Learning from the comfort of their own home can help them feel more relaxed and open. The one-to-one setting means they get the tutor's full attention, allowing them to ask questions without the pressure of a full classroom.
How much do online primary tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from £20 per hour. You can filter tutors by price on our website to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
Can we get a tutor for subjects other than maths and English?
Yes! Whilst maths and English are our most popular primary subjects, we have tutors for a wide range of areas, including science, languages, and even creative subjects like music and art. It's a great way to explore a passion or get extra help wherever it's needed.
How long are the sessions and how often should they be?
Sessions are typically one hour long. For primary-age children, we find a weekly session works best to build momentum and reinforce learning without feeling overwhelming. However, the frequency is completely flexible and can be arranged directly with your tutor to fit your family's schedule.
Can I track my child's progress?
Of course. Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing, highlighting areas of improvement and topics they'll be covering next. You can message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's progress and goals.
Do we have to commit to a certain number of lessons?
Not at all. Tutorful is completely flexible. You can book lessons one at a time or set up a regular weekly slot with your tutor. There are no sign-up fees or minimum commitments, so you're always in control.
How much do online primary tutors cost?
Even at the best schools, a teacher has to divide their attention amongst a whole class. One-to-one tutoring provides personalised attention that's impossible in a classroom. It can help consolidate learning, tackle specific tricky topics, or provide an extra challenge to help your child truly excel.
