Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We live in Horley and are thinking about schools like St Bede's. Can a tutor help prepare my child for a more demanding secondary school environment?

Yes, absolutely. A tutor can help bridge the gap between primary and secondary school by strengthening your child's core reading and comprehension skills. They can build your child's confidence, ensuring they feel ready and able to tackle the faster pace and more complex texts they'll encounter.

My child will be going to a large comprehensive like Oakwood School. I'm worried they'll get lost in the crowd. How can a tutor help?

This is a common concern for parents. One-to-one tutoring provides the personalised attention that can be difficult to get in a large classroom. A tutor can identify and address any specific gaps in your child's understanding, ensuring they don't fall behind and have a dedicated space to ask questions and build confidence.

How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. 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.

Are your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best in a safe, secure online environment.

How can a tutor help build my child's confidence in reading?

Confidence often comes from understanding. By breaking down concepts into manageable steps and celebrating small wins, a tutor helps your child see that they *can* do it. This positive reinforcement in a supportive, one-to-one setting can make a huge difference to how they feel about their abilities.

How much does online Reading tutoring cost?

Our tutors set their own prices, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. This allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor who fits your family's budget.

How does online tutoring work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like coding or a musical instrument?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find expert tutors to help them explore their interests.

How long are the tutoring sessions?

The standard session length is one hour, which gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can always discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress. It provides regular support without being overwhelming. You can easily arrange a schedule that works for you and your child directly with your chosen tutor.

What happens in a typical online reading lesson?

A lesson is tailored to your child's needs. It might start with a review of a school text, move on to practising comprehension techniques on the interactive whiteboard, and end with setting a small, achievable goal for the next week. It's all about focused, interactive learning.
