The Right Support for Your Child's Ambitions

The right tutor does more than just teach a subject; they take the time to understand how your child learns. In a one-to-one setting, they can adapt their methods to suit your child's personality and learning style, creating a safe space to ask questions and build genuine understanding away from the pressure of a busy classroom. It’s this personal connection that helps your child feel seen, supported, and ready to learn. Every lesson is built around your child's specific needs. If they need to spend a whole session on a single tricky topic in Chemistry, that's what they'll do. This tailored approach is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade, with many GCSE students improving by up to two grades. It’s about turning 'I can't do this' into 'I've got this', one focused lesson at a time. Finding the right support shouldn't add to your busy schedule. With online tutoring, you can connect with the best tutors from across the UK, right from your home in Chard. Lessons can be scheduled at times that work for your family, whether it's after school, on a weekend, or during the holidays. It’s flexible, convenient support that fits seamlessly into your life.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to apply to Richard Huish College. Can a tutor help them get the right GCSE grades?

Absolutely. This is one of the most common reasons parents in Chard come to us. Our tutors are experts in their subjects and know the GCSE curriculum inside-out. They can help your child target specific areas of weakness, consolidate their knowledge, and develop the exam technique needed to achieve the top grades required for competitive college places.

We live in Chard, are the tutors local?

Because all our tutoring is online, you're not limited to tutors who live locally. Your child can connect with the very best subject specialists from across the UK, giving you a much wider choice of expertise. This means you can find the perfect match for your child's specific needs and learning style, no matter where you are.

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 to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ask any questions you might have. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.

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

We know how important the right fit is, which is 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.

Are your tutors safe and background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and we interview every single one. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.

How much does online tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and subject, but you can easily filter by price to find someone who fits your budget. The cost is clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden surprises.

How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one lesson, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As they start to master topics they once found difficult, you'll see their self-belief grow, which often has a positive impact on their schoolwork in general.

How does the online classroom work?

Our online classroom is simple to use and has everything your child needs for a great lesson. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's designed to be engaging and collaborative, making learning online feel just as effective as being in the same room.

Is tutoring just for core subjects like Maths and English?

Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for core academic subjects, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. You can find tutors for modern languages, musical instruments like guitar and piano, and even skills like coding and public speaking.

Can we get help with A-Levels as well as GCSEs?

Yes, definitely. Many of our tutors are A-Level specialists and can support your child through their college studies and with their university applications. We have tutors for a wide range of A-Level subjects to help them continue their success after their GCSEs.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback, and you can message them at any time to discuss your child's progress. The one-to-one focus means the tutor gets a clear understanding of your child's strengths and weaknesses, and you'll often see the results in their growing confidence and improved school reports.

How many lessons will my child need?

There's no set number. Some students have a few lessons to prepare for a specific exam, while others have regular weekly sessions to build their understanding over time. It's completely flexible and you can discuss the best approach with your chosen tutor.
