Michael is a great teacher for my Y11 son. My son always achieved 7-8 grade during his high school but only after a few months of taking science lessons with Michael he achieved 9 for all his science mock exam subjects! Both his knowledge and confidence is boosted. I highly recommend Michael.

As a parent, I’m very happy with the support my son has received so far from Aaliya. She is friendly, reliable, and puts in extra time to organise resources for each lesson. She tailors the lessons to my child’s needs and always goes over the work carefully to make sure my child fully understands it. After just a few sessions, I can already see my child becoming more confident. I would definitely recommend her to other parents.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
How can online tutoring help my child succeed in their GCSEs at a Bishop Auckland school?
Our tutors can provide targeted support that complements the curriculum at schools like Bishop Barrington and St John's. By focusing on the specific areas where your child needs help, whether it's Maths, English, or Science, they can reinforce classroom learning, plug knowledge gaps, and build the confidence needed to perform their best in exams.
My child hopes to study at Durham University. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with their university applications. They can provide support with personal statements, interview preparation, and bridging any knowledge gaps to ensure your child feels confident applying to competitive universities like Durham or Newcastle.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute chat to discuss your child's needs before you book. It's all about finding someone your child connects with and you feel confident in.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the perfect fit. If for any reason you and your child don't get on with your first tutor, simply email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
Are your tutors safe and background-checked?
Absolutely. Your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor, and they must all pass an enhanced DBS background check. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How much does tutoring cost?
Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs: a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for them to learn from the comfort of home. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
Can tutoring really help my child's confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits parents notice. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. This personalised attention helps them overcome hurdles and builds their self-belief.
Is tutoring just for core academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
It's for much more than just school work! We have expert tutors who can teach everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar, to coding in Python, or even mastering a new language for a hobby. It's all about changing lives through learning, whatever the subject.
How many lessons will my child need?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Some students have a weekly lesson to stay on top of their work, while others might just have a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
How quickly will we see results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our approach is designed to build momentum quickly. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve their grades by at least one level.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
We understand that life gets busy. We have a simple and fair cancellation policy where you can cancel or reschedule a lesson for free, as long as you give your tutor at least 12 hours' notice.
