Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is at a competitive school in County Durham. Can a tutor help them stand out for a place at a Russell Group university?

Absolutely. That's precisely where our tutors excel. They can provide focused support on advanced topics and, crucially, on the exam technique needed to turn a B into an A or A*. For a competitive university like Durham, demonstrating that deeper understanding can make a huge difference to an application.

We're concerned about social mobility. How can Sociology tutoring improve my child's long-term prospects?

Sociology is a fantastic subject for this. It directly tackles issues of class, inequality, and opportunity, giving your child a powerful analytical toolkit. A tutor helps them master these concepts, which not only boosts their grade but also equips them with critical thinking skills highly valued in careers in law, policy, and the civil service.

Is online tutoring really as effective for a discussion-based subject like Sociology?

Yes, many students find it even better. Our online classroom has an interactive whiteboard perfect for deconstructing theories and planning essays together. Tutors and students can share resources and analyse texts in real-time. It’s a dynamic and engaging way to learn, with all the benefits of one-to-one discussion.

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

We know that the right fit is crucial for success. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If for any reason you don't feel the tutor is the right match, 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 we find a tutor who understands the specific exam board my child is studying?

It's easy. You can use the filters on our site to search for tutors with specific experience in the AQA, OCR, or any other exam board syllabus. Many of our tutors are examiners themselves, so they know exactly what's required to achieve the top marks.

Are your tutors qualified to teach A-Level Sociology?

Yes. We have a very selective process, and only 1 in 8 applicants are successful. Our Sociology tutors are subject-matter experts, with many holding degrees in the subject from top universities. They are all background-checked and vetted for their teaching ability.

Does my child need to be in a big city to get the best tutoring?

Not at all. This is the key advantage of online tutoring. From your home in County Durham, your child can connect with the UK's leading Sociology specialists, regardless of where they are based. You get access to a far wider and more experienced pool of talent than would ever be available locally.

How much does online Sociology tutoring cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £25 per hour, based on their experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so you can find someone brilliant who fits your budget, with no hidden costs.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback on your child's development. You'll be able to see their growing confidence and understanding in the work they produce. Tutors focus on tangible results, whether that's improving essay grades or mastering a difficult topic.

Do you offer support for university applications and personal statements?

Yes, many of our Sociology tutors also offer mentoring for university applications. They can provide expert guidance on writing a compelling personal statement that showcases a student's passion for the subject, which is vital for competitive courses.

What does my child need for an online lesson?

It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our bespoke online classroom runs directly in your browser, so there's no software to download.

Does my child need to be in a big city to get the best tutoring?

Definitely. This is a common challenge and an area where one-to-one tutoring is incredibly effective. A tutor can take the time to break down complex ideas from Marx, Weber, or feminist thinkers in a way that makes sense to your child, using examples they can relate to.
