Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child hopes to study Data Science at the University of Edinburgh. Can a tutor help with this?

Absolutely. Many of our Statistics tutors have experience helping students prepare for competitive, data-rich university courses. They can focus on the specific statistical concepts required for the University of Edinburgh's curriculum, helping your child build the deep understanding needed to strengthen their application and succeed in their studies.

The curriculum at schools like George Watson's College is demanding. Can tutors keep up?

Yes. We handpick tutors with experience across a wide range of curricula, including the Scottish Highers and Advanced Highers taught at Edinburgh's top schools. You can view each tutor’s profile to see their specific experience and find someone who is the perfect match for the academic standards your child is working towards.

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

It's a really personal choice. We recommend watching tutors' introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also read reviews from other parents and send a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before you book a lesson.

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

We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have a 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.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It’s simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes a two-way video call, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.

How much does online Statistics tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.

Are your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors must pass an enhanced background check and a personal interview before they can join our platform. We are very selective, and only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply is accepted.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in Statistics?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not feel comfortable asking in class. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor helps your child build momentum and start to believe in their own abilities.

How long are the lessons and how often should they be?

Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find that one session a week is a great way to build knowledge consistently, especially when preparing for exams like the Highers. However, it's completely flexible and you can arrange a schedule that works for your child with your chosen tutor.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. The best way is to have an open conversation with your child's tutor. They can provide regular feedback on the areas your child is excelling in and where they might need more focus. This partnership helps you stay informed and involved in their learning journey.

What happens if we need to cancel a lesson?

We understand that life can be unpredictable. You can cancel or reschedule a lesson for free, as long as you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice. You can manage all your bookings easily through your Tutorful account.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?

While we cover all core academic subjects, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. From learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to mastering coding languages like Python, we're here to support your child's passions beyond the classroom.
