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're worried about the competition for secondary schools in Solihull. Can a tutor really help?
Absolutely. We hear this from many parents in Solihull. A tutor can make a significant difference by identifying and strengthening any weak areas in English and maths, building the core skills and confidence needed for assessments like the 11+. It’s about levelling the playing field and giving your child the best possible chance to show what they can do, regardless of their primary school.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for Primary-age children?
Yes, and it has unique advantages. Our online classroom is packed with interactive tools like whiteboards and resource sharing that keep young learners engaged. Plus, your child learns from the comfort and familiarity of home, and you get access to a far wider choice of top specialist tutors from across the UK, not just those who live near Solihull.
My child is at a good primary school but seems to be falling behind. How can tutoring complement their schoolwork?
A one-to-one tutor can provide the focused attention that isn't always possible in a busy classroom of 30 children. They can revisit topics your child found tricky, explain concepts in a different way until they click, and build their confidence to speak up and participate more in school. It’s a partnership that reinforces and enhances their classroom learning.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with the first tutor we try?
It's so important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor, which is why we have our first lesson guarantee. If it's not the right fit 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 ensure your Primary tutors are high quality?
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 experience in their subject. You can read detailed reviews from other parents on each tutor's profile to find the perfect match for your child.
How much do online Primary tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically range from £25 to £45, depending on their experience. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, so you can find brilliant support that also fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees.
Do you offer tutoring for subjects other than maths and English at the primary level?
Yes, we do! Whilst maths and English are the most common, we have tutors who can help with science, languages, and even music or coding for younger learners. It's a great way to nurture a specific interest or give them a head start in a new area.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.
How often should my child have a tutoring session?
Most families find that one hour-long session per week is ideal for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You might want to increase the frequency in the run-up to SATs or the 11+, or have ad-hoc sessions just to tackle a specific topic. You can discuss the best approach with your tutor.
Can I track my child's progress?
Of course. Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing, what they've been working on, and the next steps. We encourage open communication so you always feel involved and aware of the fantastic progress they are making.
Are lessons paid for one by one or in a block?
You have complete flexibility. You can pay as you go for each lesson, or if you prefer, you can buy a block of lessons to secure your weekly slot with your chosen tutor. It's entirely up to you.
Do you offer tutoring for subjects other than maths and English at the primary level?
This is at the heart of what we do. For so many children, the biggest barrier is a belief that they 'can't do it'. A great tutor builds them up, celebrates small wins, and creates a safe space to learn. Often, seeing their confidence grow is the most rewarding result of all.
