That's where we can help. One-to-one online tutoring provides the focused, personal support that can make all the difference. It’s a partnership designed to build your child's confidence, tackle tricky topics, and give them the best possible chance to achieve their goals.

Ju-Lee H
We've been with Ju-lee for over two years now - wow how time flies. I don't know why it took me so long to write a review. Must be because I don't usually write one.
We've been with Ju-lee on an ad-hoc basis and she has prepared my daughter for exams, private schools, grammar school and concerts.
First lesson with her she brought out this long 'master' sheet that alarmed my daughter and I. I thought she was never going to be able to do that.
But Ju-lee knew what she was doing, she broke them down and taught in manageable bits and we were both astounded.
Ju-lee knows her stuff and is understanding and patient. Thank you for all your guidance and directions. You are much appreciated.

I would highly recommend her!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can view detailed tutor profiles, which include their experience, qualifications, a personal video, and reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few and sending them a message to see who feels like the best fit for your child's personality and learning style.
Can a tutor help my child get the National 5 grades needed to take five Highers?
Absolutely. This is a common goal for many families we support. A tutor can provide targeted help to strengthen your child's understanding of key topics, improve their exam technique, and build their confidence, giving them the best possible chance of securing the National 5 results they need.
My child is aiming for a top Scottish university like Edinburgh or Glasgow. Can a tutor help with this?
Yes. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students through the SQA system and with their university applications. They can provide support with Higher and Advanced Higher subjects, helping your child achieve the grades needed for competitive courses at top universities.
How much does online tutoring in Broxburn cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know how important the right connection is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a rigorous selection process, including identity and background checks, before they can join our platform. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply.
Is tutoring just for academic subjects like Maths and English?
Not at all! While we have experts for core subjects from Primary to degree level, we also have tutors for music, languages, coding, and many other hobbies and professional skills. It's about supporting your child's learning in whatever they're passionate about.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors work with you and your child to set clear goals. They provide regular feedback after lessons, and you can always message them to discuss how things are going. The biggest sign of progress is often seeing your child's confidence grow week by week.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long. This gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your family's schedule.
