📚How I teach:
The structure of my lessons are determined by the students academic level and learning style. I use a virtual whiteboard to help solve formulae or visualise problems.

Daniel P
Daniel kindly came in at the last minute to help my son understand what was needed for his EAPI (part of A level PE coursework). Daniel was really responsive, and gave great advice in a form my son understood how to implement. My son just did his EAPI today and the feedback from his teacher/examiner is that he did very well. I am confident that Daniel's intervention has resulted in my son getting a higher grade than he would have otherwise.

Richard S
Richard is an excellent tutor with great advice. Instead of telling me the answer he allows me to independently think and gives small clues on how to get to the answer. He also provided me with great key points and acronyms that help me remember essay structure as well as giving me external resources which contain useful information for my exam.

Jack R
We’ve had a fantastic experience with Jack as a maths tutor - so far my daughter had three sessions with him. Jack is an excellent communicator and explains concepts clearly and step-by-step, making even the all topics feel manageable. His lessons are well-structured and thoughtfully tailored to my daughter’s needs (we aim for confidence in class and confident GCSE mark).
Jack is also incredibly friendly and positive, which creates a really encouraging learning environment - one of my key requirements. My daughter genuinely enjoys her lessons with him and is already feeling much more confident in her maths curriculum. Highly recommended!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE grades needed for Nelson and Colne College or St Christopher's?
Absolutely. Our tutors specialise in helping students secure the grades they need for their chosen post-16 path. They can focus specifically on the GCSE curriculum, strengthen weak areas, and build the confidence your child needs to perform their best in the exams.
My child hopes to study at Lancaster or Manchester University. Can a tutor support their A-Level journey too?
Yes, many of our tutors are A-Level specialists and can provide support right through to university applications. Building a strong foundation at GCSE is the first step, and a tutor can continue to work with your child as they tackle the challenges of A-Levels to help them reach their university goals.
How do I find the right tutor for my child in Accrington?
It's simple. You can use our search filters to find tutors who specialise in your child's subject and level. You can read their profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents to get a real sense of their teaching style before you even send a message.
Are your tutors properly checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor must pass an interview and have their ID and background checked before they can teach on the platform.
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 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.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience, the subject, and the 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 can a tutor help my child feel more confident?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be embarrassed to ask in class. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, tutors help build their self-belief, which has a positive impact on all their studies.
Is tutoring just for academic subjects like Maths, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also offer lessons for a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language, you can find a brilliant tutor for it here.
How does online tutoring actually work?
All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which most students find is the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child.
Can we try just one lesson to see how it goes?
Of course. There are no contracts or long-term commitments. You can book a single lesson to make sure the tutor is the right fit for your child. Most families choose to continue with weekly sessions once they find someone they click with.
How is online tutoring better than in-person?
Online tutoring offers incredible flexibility, fitting around your busy schedule without any travel time. It also gives you access to the best tutors from across the UK, not just those who live locally. Our online classroom also has tools that make learning interactive and engaging.
