Mastering algebra isn't just about passing an exam; it builds problem-solving skills for life. Likewise, digging into a text like 'Macbeth' develops the critical thinking that universities and employers value so highly. These qualifications are the key to unlocking the A-Level choices and degree courses your child is aiming for.

Gloria J
Definitely a tutor I would recommend for English. Friendly, helpful and assuring for such vast knowledge in English you can identify her in having through the lessons you have with her. She structures lessons well to allow you to engage and be educated at a steady pace where your weaknesses are identified simultaneously, and further improving on it, fortifying your foundation on the subject whilst also gaining more exposure and experience to answering past paper questions.

asked questions
See all FAQs
How does online tutoring work for families in Abercarn?
It's simple and convenient! You can browse our top-rated tutors and find the perfect match for your child. Lessons take place online via our interactive whiteboard, so there's no need to travel. It's a flexible way to fit expert support into your family's schedule.
Are the tutors familiar with the Welsh curriculum (WJEC)?
Yes, many of our tutors have extensive experience teaching the WJEC curriculum. You can check their individual profiles for specific expertise or use our search filters to find a tutor who specialises in the Welsh exam board specifications.
How do I find the right tutor for my child?
You can read detailed profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding a personality and teaching style that clicks with your child.
What if we're not happy with the first lesson?
We want you to feel confident in your choice. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you're not completely satisfied with the first session for any reason, let us know by emailing support@tutorful.co.uk and we'll find another tutor for you, with the first lesson on us.
Are all your tutors DBS checked?
Yes, the safety of our students is our top priority. All of our tutors are required to have an up-to-date DBS check (or the equivalent for their country) to be on our platform.
How much do lessons cost?
Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can filter by price to find great options that fit your budget.
How quickly can we expect to see results for GCSEs?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that just eight hours of tuition, on average, is enough to help a student improve by one whole GCSE grade. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence even sooner.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very straightforward. All you need is a computer or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom works directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.
Do you offer tutors for non-academic subjects, like music?
Absolutely! We have a wide range of talented tutors who teach instruments like piano and guitar, as well as singing and music theory. It's a wonderful way to support your child's creative passions.
Can we book a one-off lesson for a specific topic?
Yes, of course. While many families prefer regular weekly lessons, you can absolutely book a single session if your child just needs some focused help on a tricky topic before a test or exam.
How do we pay for lessons?
Payments are handled securely and simply through the platform. You add your payment details to your account, and you're only charged 24 hours after each lesson is completed. There are no sign-up fees or hidden costs.
Can a tutor help with more than just the subject content?
Definitely. A great tutor does more than just teach a subject. They can help with revision techniques, exam strategies, and time management skills. Most importantly, they act as a mentor, helping to build your child's confidence and self-belief.
