Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE grades needed for Queen Mary's College?

Absolutely. Many parents in Basingstoke use Tutorful for this exact reason. Our tutors can create a tailored plan to target the specific grades your child needs for their chosen A-Level subjects, helping them build the knowledge and exam technique to feel confident about securing their place.

My child is considering applying to the University of Reading or Surrey. Can a tutor help with their A-Levels?

Yes. We have a huge range of experienced A-Level tutors who can provide in-depth support for specific subjects. They can help your child master complex topics and prepare for the exams that are so critical for applications to competitive universities.

How do you make sure tutors are safe to work with?

Your child's safety is our absolute priority. Every single tutor is background-checked and must pass a rigorous interview process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

How do I pick the right tutor for my child?

You can use our search filters to find tutors with the right experience. Watch their intro videos and read reviews from other parents to get a feel for their teaching style. You can also message tutors before booking to make sure they're a good fit for your child.

What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know that the right connection is key to 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 in Basingstoke cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, starting from around £20 per hour. Tutors set their own rates, so you can easily find an option that fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, tutors create a supportive space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, they help your child see their own progress and start to believe in their abilities.

How do the online lessons work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for an interactive lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.

Is tutoring just for core subjects like Maths and English?

Not at all! While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects from 11+ to degree level, we also offer support for hobbies and professional skills. You can find tutors for everything from learning guitar and Spanish to coding in Python.

How long are the lessons?

Lessons are typically one hour long, which we find is the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor if needed.

What if we need to change our lesson time?

Life happens! You can easily rearrange or cancel lessons through your Tutorful account. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, though many tutors are more flexible if you discuss it with them.

How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?

You can find and book a tutor very quickly. Many of our tutors respond to messages within a few hours, and you could have your first lesson booked for as early as tomorrow.
