Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a tutor help my child with their application to Lancaster University?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with their UCAS applications, including personal statements and interview preparation. You can find tutors with specific experience in helping students secure places at competitive universities like Lancaster.

My child's school in Carnforth is great, so how does tutoring add to that?

Think of tutoring as a dedicated partnership that complements their schoolwork. While teachers manage a full class, a tutor provides one-to-one attention. They can focus on the exact topics your child finds tricky, reinforce what they've learned in class, and stretch them further to help them achieve those top A and A* grades.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

You can read detailed profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few tutors and sending them a message to discuss your child's specific goals before booking a lesson.

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

We want your child to feel comfortable and inspired by their tutor. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you feel the first tutor isn't the right fit, simply 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 Carnforth cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and subject. You can easily filter by price on our website to find a brilliant tutor that fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID verified. We also interview every tutor to ensure they have the right experience and a passion for teaching. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.

Can tutoring help my child if they lack confidence?

Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. In a safe, supportive environment, children often feel more comfortable asking questions they might not ask in class. This builds their self-belief, which has a positive impact on their schoolwork and their exam results.

What happens in a typical online lesson?

Lessons take place in our online classroom, which has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. A tutor might work through tricky algebra problems on the whiteboard, review an essay draft together, or practise exam techniques. Every lesson is tailored to your child's immediate needs.

How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should they be?

Most sessions are one hour long, and we generally find a weekly session works best for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange session length and frequency directly with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.

Is it just for core subjects like Maths and English, or can you help with other skills?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Beyond core academic subjects, your child can learn practical skills like coding, a new language, or a musical instrument like the guitar. It’s a great way to explore new interests or support their hobbies.

Do we need any special equipment for online lessons?

All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is easy to use and works directly in your web browser, so there's no special software to download.

How do you measure my child's progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also discuss goals together and see their confidence and understanding grow week by week. The most important measure is seeing your child feel happier and more capable in their studies.
