Alannah C
Alannah is an excellent tutor who explains clearly how to approach and answer exam questions. She adapts her teaching style to suit the way you learn, which genuinely makes a difference. I’ve had tutoring for over four years, from secondary school through to college, and she’s easily the best tutor I’ve had, especially when it comes to building confidence with examstyle questions. That confidence is one of the most important parts of revision once you understand the content, and she helps with that a lot.
The lessons could be a bit more engaging or fun, but aside from that she’s an excellent tutor and especially well suited for college level study. She’s very knowledgeable and always able to answer any questions you have.

Sam H
I started working with Sam quite late in the A-Level year, but despite the limited time he put in so much effort and support. He completely rebuilt my confidence in English Language and helped take me from a B to an A — the first A I’d ever achieved in English, and I got it in my actual A-Levels. He had me writing answers every week and always gave incredibly thorough, clear feedback that really helped me improve quickly. I genuinely wouldn’t have achieved my grade without him and can’t recommend him enough.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at Park View/The Hermitage Academy. Can a tutor help them secure top GCSE grades for a competitive sixth form?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are specialists in preparing students for GCSEs. They can create a personalised learning plan to target specific subjects, improve exam technique, and build the confidence your child needs to achieve the higher grades required for competitive sixth-form places.
We're aiming for a Russell Group university like Durham or Newcastle. Can you provide A-Level tutors with experience in this?
Yes. We have a huge range of A-Level tutors, many of whom are graduates from Russell Group universities themselves. They have first-hand experience of the application process and the academic standards required, making them perfectly placed to support your child's ambitions.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications and experience. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding someone your child clicks with.
How much do tutors in Chester-le-Street cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which typically start from around £20 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can easily filter by price to find an expert tutor who fits your budget.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single UK-based tutor on our platform has undergone a background check before they can start teaching. We are very strict about this.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
My child has lost confidence in a subject. Can a tutor help with that?
Definitely. This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. A great tutor can identify where your child is struggling, break down difficult concepts into manageable steps, and celebrate their progress along the way. Rebuilding that self-belief is often the first step to better grades.
What happens if we don't get on with the first tutor we choose?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How are Tutorful tutors selected?
We pride ourselves on having the best tutors. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to join us. We review their academic background, teaching experience, and communication skills to ensure they can provide the high-quality, supportive teaching your child deserves.
Is tutoring just for school subjects like Maths and English?
Not at all! While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects from Primary up to degree level, we also have experts who can teach practical skills and hobbies. You can find tutors for everything from learning guitar and singing to coding in Python.
How long until we see an improvement in our child's results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the benefit of one-to-one tuition is that it's focused entirely on their needs, which can accelerate progress. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions.
What if our family schedule is really busy and changes week to week?
That's one of the main benefits of online tutoring. You're not tied to a fixed weekly slot. You can schedule lessons at times that suit you and your child, fitting them around school, clubs, and family commitments with ease.
