Jack R
Very patient and very clear when explaining stuff. Doesn’t go too fast and really knows what he’s talking about. I knew basically nothing about python before I got him, now I’m much more confident with everything and am able to do some good coding on my own. Would definitely recommend if you’re interested in anything python related!

She is absolutely amazing!! I am a mature student studying A levels; moving from a design background into science is a huge leap, Chinaze has been nothing but supportive and helpful. Her knowledge is impressive and she’s extremely flexible with lessons. Every time I’ve had a session with her, I’ve left feeling very confident. I’m that annoying student who is always asking why and she always has an answer, even if it’s not relevant to the subject. Really grateful to have found her :)

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the Higher results needed for universities in Glasgow?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the SQA curriculum and have a great track record of helping students achieve the grades needed for competitive courses at universities like Glasgow, Strathclyde, and others across Scotland. They can focus on specific exam techniques and subject knowledge to help your child stand out.
Do your tutors understand the curriculum used in Airdrie schools like Airdrie Academy?
Yes. You can easily find tutors with extensive experience in the Scottish curriculum, including the specific requirements for National 5s and Highers. When you search, you can view each tutor's profile to see their experience with the SQA (Scottish Qualifications Authority) framework.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It’s all about finding the right fit. You can read reviews from other parents, watch introductory videos, and check each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking to make sure you find the perfect match.
Are all the tutors' backgrounds checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough background check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. 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 in Airdrie cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically range from £15 to £40, depending on their experience and subject level. You can see the price clearly on each tutor's profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget with no hidden costs.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
One-to-one attention from an expert can make a world of difference. When a tutor focuses solely on your child, they can praise their efforts, patiently explain difficult concepts until they click, and celebrate their progress. This personalised support often helps students feel more capable and less anxious about school.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and engaging. It includes an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a way to share documents. It’s like being in the same room, allowing for a collaborative and effective learning experience from the comfort of your own home.
Is it only for academic subjects, or can you help with skills like music or coding?
While we have thousands of tutors for core subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical and creative skills! You can find tutors for everything from learning the guitar and speaking Spanish to coding in Python.
Can we get help with a specific part of a subject, like National 5 Maths?
Yes, absolutely. That’s one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. If your child is finding a particular topic in their National 5 Maths course tricky, their tutor can dedicate entire lessons to it until your child feels completely confident.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most lessons are one hour long, as this is usually the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in depth without losing focus. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child.
How can I track my child's progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message them directly through the platform at any time to discuss progress, upcoming tests, or any areas you're concerned about. It's a partnership between you, your child, and the tutor.
