asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is worried about their GCSEs. Can a tutor help them get the grades needed for a competitive sixth form?
Absolutely. This is one of the most common reasons parents seek support. Our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and can create a tailored plan to target weaker areas, build confidence, and improve exam technique. We've helped over 200,000 students, with many improving their GCSE results by up to two grades.
We're aiming for a place at the University of Derby or Nottingham. Can we find a tutor experienced with A-Levels?
Yes. Many of our tutors are specialists in A-Level subjects and have extensive experience helping students secure places at top universities. They can provide focused support on complex topics and help your child develop the independent study skills needed for higher education.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can view detailed profiles for all our tutors in Borrowash, including their experience, qualifications, and teaching style. Reading reviews from other parents is also a great way to get a feel for who might be a good fit. We recommend messaging a few tutors for free to find the perfect match.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience, the subject, and the level of study. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can easily find someone who fits your budget.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit, which is why we have a 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.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, including identity and background checks, before they can join our platform. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?
Confidence often grows from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As their tutor helps them overcome challenges and they start to see their own progress, their self-belief naturally improves.
What is the online classroom like?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for drawing and sharing notes, and a document editor. It has all the tools needed for your child and their tutor to work together easily.
How many lessons will my child need?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Some families book a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others prefer regular weekly lessons to provide consistent support throughout the school year. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
Is it just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also have experts who teach practical and creative skills. You can find tutors for everything from learning the guitar and music theory to coding in Python.
Why should I choose Tutorful?
Parents trust us to help their children succeed, which is why we have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews. We combine expert, vetted tutors with a secure and easy-to-use online platform, providing a flexible and effective way to support your child's learning.
Can tutoring help with the transition to a secondary school like West Park or Long Eaton School?
Yes, it can be a great way to smooth the transition. A tutor can help consolidate Key Stage 2 knowledge and introduce some foundational Year 7 topics, ensuring your child feels confident and prepared from their very first day at their new school.
