Find The Perfect Online Tutor for Your Child in Charlton

Watching your child navigate their A-levels can feel like a high-stakes balancing act. Here in Charlton, with so many great schools and competitive university places on the line, it’s natural to worry if they’re making the right choices. You might be wondering if a subject like General Studies could be seen as a 'soft option', and what that means for their chances of getting into a top university. Finding the right one-to-one tutor can make all the difference. It’s not just about grades; it’s about giving your child a dedicated expert who can build their confidence, strengthen their core subjects, and help them create an academic profile that truly stands out.

One-to-one Support That Makes a Real Difference

We believe the right tutor can change a life, which is why we’re so selective—we only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply. Your child's tutor will take the time to understand their unique learning style and personality, creating a supportive partnership where your child feels comfortable asking questions and truly getting to grips with a subject. Every online lesson is built around your child. If they’re finding a specific Biology topic difficult or need to refine their essay technique for History, the entire session can be dedicated to that one area until they feel they've mastered it. This personalised approach is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Finding the right support shouldn't add to your family's to-do list. You can browse our background-checked tutors, read reviews from other parents, and schedule online lessons at times that fit around your schedule. It’s expert help, made simple and convenient for you.

Matthew S
University Law Tutor
I have been tutoring for 8 years, and teaching at my university for the last 8, where I am responsible for taking lectures, seminars and setting exams. In this period I have taught many, many students in a number of subject areas. I can therefore assist tutees to improve their grades through helping them with content revision and exam technique.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is worried their A-level choices might look 'soft' for university. Can a tutor help?

Absolutely. This is a common concern for parents in Charlton. A tutor can help your child excel in their other, more 'rigorous' subjects, building a strong academic profile that showcases their strengths. They can also help with university application strategy and personal statements, ensuring your child presents their skills and knowledge in the best possible light for top universities.

We're considering the University of Greenwich. Can we find a tutor with relevant experience?

Yes, you can. Many of our tutors are university graduates themselves, some from Russell Group institutions and others from excellent universities like Greenwich. You can view each tutor's profile to see their qualifications and experience, and even message them beforehand to discuss your child's specific goals.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

Is it just for core academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we're here to help with Maths, English, and Science, your child can also learn practical skills like coding in Python, playing the guitar, or even preparing for their driving theory test.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

You can use our search filters to find tutors with the right experience for your child's age and subject. Every tutor has a detailed profile with a video, qualifications, and reviews from other parents just like you. You can even message them for free before booking to make sure it's a good fit.

How much does online tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, starting from around £15 per hour. There are no hidden fees or contracts – you simply pay as you go for the lessons you book. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

One-to-one attention in a safe, supportive space makes a huge difference. Tutors can break down tricky topics, celebrate small wins, and adapt their teaching style to your child. This personalised approach helps them see they *can* understand the subject, which is a massive confidence booster.

Are the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, including identity checks and background checks (DBS or equivalent). We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform.

How do online lessons work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs: video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents and past papers. It's a dedicated learning space they can access from anywhere with an internet connection, making lessons convenient and effective.

Can we get help with exam technique?

Definitely. Our tutors are brilliant at teaching exam technique. They can go through past papers, help your child understand mark schemes, and teach them how to structure their answers to get the highest possible marks.

How long is a typical lesson?

Most lessons are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor, as some parents and students prefer longer sessions, especially for A-Level or revision-focused work.

How quickly can we find a tutor?

You can find and book a tutor very quickly, often for a lesson within a few days. Many tutors respond to messages within a couple of hours. With over 4,100+ positive reviews from families, you can feel confident you're finding great support, fast.
