Flora I
Flora is a very patient, professional and well-prepared tutor. She always explains things clearly and teaches my son how to answer GCSE questions in a structured way. She provides homework, goes through mistakes carefully, and shows him how to improve his answers step by step. She also adjusts her teaching according to my son’s exam boards and level. My son is less anxious about English now and is slowly gaining confidence. We are very happy with her support and would definitely recommend her.

Sam D
I would highly recommend Sam as a physics tutor. She has been teaching my daughter, and the experience has been excellent. Sam is extremely kind, patient, and supportive, which has helped my daughter feel more confident and comfortable with a subject she previously found challenging. Sam explains complex physics concepts clearly and in a way that is easy to understand. She is always well prepared, encouraging, and genuinely invested in her student’s progress. My daughter has not only improved academically but has also developed a more positive attitude toward physics thanks to Sam’s teaching approach. Sam is a dedicated and reliable tutor, and I would strongly recommend her to any parent looking for high-quality physics tuition.

asked questions
See all FAQs
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! Lessons take place via video call in our interactive online classroom. It has a whiteboard, file sharing, and everything your child and their tutor need to work together effectively, right from your home in Barrowford.
How do I find the right tutor for my child?
You can easily search for tutors by subject and level, then read their profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can even message them before booking to make sure they're the perfect fit for your child.
How much do online tutors cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts, so you have complete control over your budget.
How do you vet your tutors?
We take safety and quality very seriously. Every tutor is interviewed, has their ID checked, and must provide references. We only accept around 1 in 8 applicants, so you can be sure your child is learning from a trusted and experienced professional.
Can tutoring really help improve my child's GCSE grades?
Absolutely. We see fantastic results. 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and on average, it takes just 8 hours of tutoring to achieve this. For GCSEs specifically, our students can improve by up to two grades.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the right fit. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you're not completely satisfied with the first lesson for any reason, let us know by emailing support@tutorful.co.uk and we will find another tutor for you, with the first lesson covered by us.
My child is struggling with confidence, not just one subject. Can a tutor help?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. A great tutor is also a mentor who can help rebuild your child's self-belief. By working at their pace in a supportive environment, they can start to feel much more positive about their abilities.
How many lessons will my child need?
This really depends on your child's goals. Some parents book a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others prefer a regular weekly lesson to build knowledge over time. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor to create a plan that works.
Do you offer tutoring for non-academic subjects, like music?
We do! We have brilliant tutors for a wide range of skills, from learning the guitar or piano to music theory. It's a wonderful way to support your child's hobbies and passions outside of their schoolwork.
Are there tutors available who understand the schools and colleges around Barrowford?
While our tutors are online and based across the UK, many have experience with specific exam boards and curricula used in local schools. You can read their profiles and even message them to ask about their familiarity with the requirements for colleges like Nelson and Colne.
How do I book and pay for lessons?
It's all managed easily through our secure platform. You can message tutors, schedule lessons, and pay after each session has been completed. It’s a simple and transparent process with no surprises.
How flexible is the scheduling for lessons?
It's very flexible. You arrange lesson times directly with your tutor. Most tutors have a 24-hour cancellation policy, but you can see the specific details on their profile, making it easy to manage around your family's busy schedule.
