asked questions

How can a tutor help me with a specific aspect of my QTS?

A QTS tutor can provide targeted support with any element of your training, from lesson planning and delivery to behaviour management and assessment. They can also help you prepare for observations, reflect on your practice, and understand what you need to do to gain QTS.

I'm a mature student, can tutoring fit around my schedule?

Online tutoring offers maximum flexibility, allowing you to schedule sessions at times that suit you, whether that's evenings, weekends, or during school holidays. You can learn from home without needing to travel, using our virtual classroom to get the most out of every session.

When's the best time to start tutoring during the QTS year?

You can seek support at any point during your training. Some students find it helpful to start tutoring at the beginning to build a solid foundation, while others seek help when they encounter specific challenges. Even a few sessions before a key assessment can make all the difference.

How much does QTS tutoring cost?

Tutoring costs vary depending on your tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find support that fits your budget. Consider it an investment in your teaching career.

Can I choose my own tutor?

You have complete control over choosing your tutor. Tutorful lets you browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other students, and contact tutors directly to discuss your needs before you book a session, to make sure you find the right tutor for you.

What should I expect in a typical tutoring session?

Sessions are focused and interactive, tailored to your individual needs. Your tutor will typically begin by discussing your goals and challenges, then work with you to develop a plan to achieve your QTS. They'll provide guidance, feedback, and support to help you build your skills and confidence.
