The Right Support for Your Child, Right When They Need It

Finding the right person to support your child is everything. That's why we're so selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. All our tutors are background-checked and handpicked from across the UK for their expertise and passion. They get to know your child as an individual, understanding their unique learning style and the specific areas where they need a bit of extra help, something that isn't always possible in a busy classroom. Every single lesson is built around your child's needs.

This targeted approach is proven to work and can help boost your child's GCSE results by up to two grades, giving them the confidence and the qualifications to take that next important step. We know family life is busy, so we make tutoring simple and flexible. You can find and message tutors for free, read reviews from other parents, and schedule lessons at times that suit you.

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.
