Teach a man to fish; you'll feed him for a lifetime.
Hi, I’m a Master’s graduate in Biomedical Science from the University of Glasgow, and I’m passionate about helping students achieve their academic goals in a way that’s both fun and effective.Growing up, I found school challenging—balancing coursework with extracurricular activities made it difficult to maintain high grades. However, once I reached university, I developed better study strategies that helped me excel and achieve top marks. This experience has shaped my approach to tutoring: I focus on understanding concepts, not just memorizing theory. I believe that when students grasp the why b...

Peter J
My son has been having regular weekly A-level maths lessons with Peter for a couple of months now and he's absolutely brilliant. My son says he's the best tutor he's had - he's super positive and encouraging, explains things really clearly and just makes things make sense that my son had found tricky in his college maths classes. Peter is always really helpful if we need to change the day or time of a session and responds to messages promptly. My son is already feeling much more confident about his maths exams and looks forwards to his sessions with Peter. Would definitely recommend!

Richard H
My son has just started weekly A-level geography sessions with Richard. So far he's been absolutely brilliant! Richard was super helpful and flexible with days and times and the initial 15 minute chat was great as it allowed him and my son to discuss strengths and weaknesses and make a plan together. My son found the first lesson really valuable. Richard had prepared a session that was tailored perfectly and we received prompt feedback after the lesson. My son is looking forward to his regular lessons with Richard and I'm sure he will gain much more confidence and exam technique as a result of Richard's tutoring. Would definitely recommend!

I have had Spanish tutoring classes with Johanna for over a year and they have been really well structured and challenging. Johanna makes the classes very interactive, focusing on all aspects of the language, enabling me to advance my vocabulary, sentence structure, conversational speaking and listening skills. I have advanced a lot in my Spanish since starting lessons with Johanna and would highly recommend!! Thank you very much for all the support

Ayma A
I had lessons with Ayma to help me prepare for an upcoming medicine interview. Despite the short notice I gave, she was able to fit in several sessions with me and was well prepared for each one, having a clear idea of what to cover. She went through every aspect of medicine interviews such as ethics, data, roleplay and personal skills, and boosted my confidence greatly. She was very kind and patient throughout, even when I struggled a lot with some answers, and she took time to explain everything clearly for me, including some technical and tricky concepts. I really appreciate her help and couldn’t have done my interview without her :-)

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at The Duchess's Community High School. Can a tutor help them compete for a place at Durham or Newcastle?
Absolutely. This is a common goal for many parents we help. Our online tutors can level the playing field, giving your child access to subject specialists with experience in helping students secure places at top Russell Group universities. They can provide the focused, expert support needed to build a strong application.
We live in Alnwick. Are we limited to tutors based nearby?
Not at all. The great thing about online tutoring is that location doesn't matter. You can choose from thousands of the UK's best tutors, no matter where you live. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists than would ever be available locally.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
We make it easy to find the perfect match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check qualifications on each tutor's profile. We also encourage you to message tutors for free before booking to discuss your child's needs.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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.
Can a tutor help with specific GCSE exam preparation?
Yes, our tutors are brilliant at preparing students for exams. They can work on everything from past papers and revision techniques to managing time pressure. We know it works – we can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically start from around £20 per hour. You can see the price clearly on every tutor's profile and use our search filters to find someone who fits your budget.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is ID and background-checked before they can teach on our platform. We're also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure of their quality.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
Confidence is often the biggest change parents see. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to say 'I don't understand' without any classroom pressure. Tutors are experts at breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, which quickly builds self-belief.
How do the online lessons work?
It's simple! Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a way to share documents. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a stable internet connection.
How often should my child have a lesson?
It's completely flexible and depends on your child's goals. Most families find a regular weekly session works best to build momentum, but you can arrange whatever frequency works for you and your tutor.
Is tutoring just for core academic subjects like Maths and English?
While we have thousands of tutors for core subjects, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. Whether your child wants to learn a language, master a musical instrument like the guitar, or even get ahead with a skill like coding, we have a specialist tutor to help.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Simply search for your subject, find a tutor you like the look of, and send them a message to arrange your first lesson. Many students are able to have their first session within 24-48 hours.
