Laura W
Laura has been a wonderful support for my daughter throughout her A level sociology course. Lessons were tailored to support her learning needs and the additional information that Laura provided was invaluable. Laura is a kind, caring and diligent tutor who I would not hesitate to recommend. She cares about her students and offers positive support and guidance - often going beyond the tutorial time to mark additional work and offer advice. Thank you Laura for everything - particularly inspiring Al to study sociology at university and helping her to achieve a grade well above what she was predicted!

Brilliant Sociology tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child hopes to study Sociology at the University of York. Can a tutor help them build a strong application?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are graduates from Russell Group universities and have first-hand experience with the application process. They can help your child deepen their subject knowledge and develop the critical analysis skills that admissions tutors at competitive universities like York are looking for in A-Level students.
We're worried that an A-Level in Sociology doesn't lead to a clear career path. How can tutoring address this?
That's a very common concern. Our tutors are brilliant at connecting sociological concepts to real-world careers in fields like social research, policy analysis, marketing, and HR. They can help your child see the practical value of their studies, building their confidence in the future opportunities the subject opens up.
Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?
Yes, and for many families in york, it's even better. Online tutoring removes travel time and gives your child access to a much wider pool of expert tutors from across the UK. With interactive whiteboards and resource sharing, lessons are just as engaging, plus you get the flexibility to fit learning around your life.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first Sociology tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. We have a first lesson guarantee, so if it isn't the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do you ensure your tutors are high-quality and safe to work with?
We take this very seriously. We have a rigorous selection process, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed by a member of our team, has their qualifications verified, and undergoes an enhanced DBS background check.
My child attends a competitive school in york. How can a tutor provide an extra edge?
In a competitive environment, one-to-one attention can make all the difference. A tutor can go over topics your child finds tricky in class, focus on specific exam techniques, and push them to think more critically than they might in a larger group, helping them stand out.
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 is browser-based, so there's no complex software to install.
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 tutors can share insights on improvements in their essay writing, analytical skills, and overall understanding of the curriculum.
How much does online Sociology tutoring cost for a student in york?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from £15 per hour. You can filter tutors by price on our website to find an experienced, high-quality tutor who fits your family's budget.
Do you only offer tutoring for academic subjects like Sociology?
Not at all! Whilst we have fantastic tutors for core academic subjects, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas, including music, coding, languages, and professional skills. There's a tutor for almost any goal.
Can we find a tutor for GCSE Sociology as well as A-Level?
Yes. We have a brilliant range of tutors with experience across different levels. You can easily filter your search to find tutors who specialise in the specific exam board and level your child is studying, whether it's for their GCSEs or A-Levels.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
Most students have one session a week, as this provides consistency and allows them to build momentum. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange sessions more or less frequently depending on your child's needs and your family's schedule.
