I have been a tutor for four years, tailoring each lesson to the student’s individual learning needs. I was equally a tutor within the school environment for two years, teaching the French language to A-Level students.

Ensuring success in Science! 🧪

I have been teaching for 4 years, and throughout that time have taught AQA GCSE Chemistry, AQA GCSE Combined Science, and AQA A-Level Chemistry. I am an examiner for AQA Paper 2 Chemistry.

Mustafa A
So far, I have had four lessons with Mustafa, and I have found him to be really supportive and thorough. In my first lesson, he took the time to identify my strengths and weaknesses in GCSE Chemistry so that he could prepare future lessons to the topics I was least confident in.
Throughout our lessons, we have worked through each topic carefully, making sure I fully understand the content before moving on. I also asked if we could go through my Chemistry mock exam questions in an upcoming lesson, and he was very happy to do so, which made me feel really supported. He always finishes lessons with exam questions, which has helped build my confidence and exam technique. Mustafa has also discussed revision techniques with me, which I’ve found very helpful when studying independently.
If there is any content I don’t understand, he quizzes me and explains it clearly until I feel confident. As someone who isn’t always confident in my answers, I now feel much more comfortable asking questions and learning from mistakes. I look forward to continuing my lessons with Mustafa. Thank you.

Ffion W
Absolutely fabulous.. my daughter was in tears this week as her teachers at college refused to help , and isolated her from the class. Tonight after just one hour with Ffion, she has turned a corner for my daughter, going from feeling like a failure to feeling positive again and given her hope that she can do this. Cant thank her enough .. will definitely be booking her again.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to a competitive college in Derby or Loughborough. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Our tutors can help your child secure the strong GCSE grades needed for these applications. By focusing on specific subjects and exam techniques, they can build both the knowledge and confidence your child needs to stand out and secure a place on their desired A-Level or BTEC course.
We live in Castle Donington. Are the tutors local?
Because all our tutoring is online, your child can connect with the very best tutors from across the UK, not just those nearby. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists, ensuring you can find the perfect match for your child’s specific needs, subject, and learning style.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can easily browse tutors by subject and level, read their personal profiles, and check reviews from other parents. Many tutors also offer a short introductory chat to see if they're a good fit before you book. It's all about finding someone your child clicks with.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, starting from around £15 per hour. You can filter tutors by price on our search page to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term commitments.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked using an enhanced DBS check. We also interview every applicant and are highly selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from a true expert.
Can tutoring help my child if they've lost their confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Rebuilding that self-belief is often the first step towards making real academic progress.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard for solving problems together, and a way to share documents. It has all the tools your child needs for a productive and engaging lesson.
Do you offer tutoring for more than just core school subjects?
We do! While we have experts for core subjects like Maths, English, and Science at all levels, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. You can find support for languages, music lessons like guitar or piano, and even coding.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week is ideal for steady progress and building momentum. However, it's completely flexible. You might want more frequent lessons in the run-up to an exam. You can discuss the best approach directly with your tutor.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person?
Many parents find it's even more effective. With no travel time, lessons are less disruptive to family life. Plus, our purpose-built online classroom has powerful tools that make learning interactive and engaging, and gives your child access to a much wider pool of expert tutors.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started today. Simply search for your subject, find a tutor you like the look of, and send them a message to arrange your first lesson. Many of our 200,000+ happy students have found a tutor and started learning within 24 hours.
