Amba R
I have had Amba as my tutor for when I was retaking my law exam with almost zero knowledge. In just a few months with weekly lessons she has helped me massively to improve my writing, taught me and explained to me the topics I needed to understand and has always been pushing for improvement even when I was doing in her opinion. Due to this, I have managed to greatly pass the module that I needed to pass to progress onto my next year. I highly recommend her as a tutor.

Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

My son achieved a grade 5 in his English Language GCSE exam today. This was his 3rd resit. He was recently diagnosed with dyslexia and he would not have done this without Sobia's tutoring. Thank you so much Sobia!

Richard H
Richard has been very helpful in the lead up to my A-Level Geography mocks - in 3 sessions we went over potential exam questions for the whole of the physical paper and the way he explains what the question is asking and the concepts within the specification is really useful! The way he teaches makes him easy to understand and to remember what he has said even after leaving the session! I would recommend him to anyone at any level of Geography as he is so clear and encouraging.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE grades needed for Coleg Gwent's Blaenau Gwent Learning Zone?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in GCSE preparation for core subjects like Maths, English, and Science. They can work with your child on specific topics, exam technique, and revision strategies to help them build the confidence and knowledge needed to secure their place for A-Levels.
My child is hoping to study at a Welsh university like Cardiff or Swansea. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors can provide support beyond just GCSEs. Many have experience helping students with A-Level subjects, personal statements for UCAS applications, and preparing for the step up to university-level study. They can be a brilliant source of guidance as your child plans their future.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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.
Is it just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for all core academic subjects, we also offer lessons in a huge range of other skills! From learning to play the guitar or piano to getting started with coding languages like Python, you can find a tutor to help your child explore their interests beyond the classroom.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check a tutor's qualifications right on their profile. You can also send them a message before booking to discuss your child's needs and make sure it's a good fit. It’s all about finding someone your child will connect with.
How much does online tutoring cost in Abertillery?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience, subject, and level of study. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is simple and easy to use. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space to share documents. It’s designed to be just as effective as being in the same room, allowing your child to collaborate with their tutor in real-time.
Are all the tutors' backgrounds checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a background check and identity verification before they can teach on our platform. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
Can online tutoring really help my child's confidence?
It really can. One-to-one attention from a supportive tutor creates a safe space for your child to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As they start to understand difficult topics and see their progress, their self-esteem and confidence in their own abilities often grow significantly.
How long is a typical lesson?
Most lessons are an hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to cover a topic without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor to find what works best for your child's schedule and attention span.
Can I book a one-off lesson or do I have to commit to a block?
You have complete flexibility. You can book lessons one at a time or schedule regular weekly slots with your chosen tutor. There are no contracts or long-term commitments, so you can get support as and when your child needs it.
What subjects can we find tutors for?
We offer tutors across more than 300 subjects. From core GCSE subjects like Maths, English, and Biology, to A-Level specialisms, languages, and even music tuition, you're sure to find the expert support your child needs.
