Joe T
Joe has been delivering 11+ prep lessons to my daughter over the past several months.
Joe is an excellent tutor. He is patient, clear in his explanations, and very knowledgeable about the 11+ curriculum. My daughter has grown significantly in both confidence and ability, and she genuinely looks forward to her lessons with him, which speaks volumes about his approach and manner.
Joe is well organised and supportive, and we have seen clear progress made.
I would highly recommend Joe to any parent looking for a dedicated, effective, and encouraging 11+ tutor.

My child is preparing for the 11+ for an Essex grammar school. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and entrance exams for specific schools, including the Essex grammars. You can use our search filters to find tutors with proven experience in helping children build the skills and confidence needed for these tests.
We're aiming for a place at an independent school like Chigwell School or Bancroft's. Do you have tutors who can help?
Yes. We have tutors with experience in preparing students for entrance exams to leading independent schools. They can help your child with everything from interview practice to specific exam techniques, tailoring their approach to the requirements of schools like Chigwell and Bancroft's.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can view each tutor's profile to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to explain your child's goals. This helps you find someone your child will get on with, which is key to building their confidence.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right fit is crucial. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect match for your child, just 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 cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. There are no hidden fees or contracts – you simply pay as you go for the lessons you book.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We also have a rigorous selection process, and we only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the very best.
How can a tutor help my child with their confidence?
Confidence often grows when a child feels understood and supported. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Our tutors are experts at breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, which helps build self-belief over time.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has everything your child needs to learn effectively, including a video chat function, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
Is tutoring just for core school subjects, or can you help with other skills?
It’s for so much more! While we have experts in Maths, English, and Science, you can also find brilliant tutors for everything from coding and learning Spanish to playing the guitar or mastering public speaking.
Can I book lessons at times that suit my family?
Of course. We know how busy family life can be. You can see each tutor's availability on their profile and arrange lesson times that fit perfectly around your school runs, clubs, and other commitments. It's completely flexible.
What qualifications do your tutors have?
Our tutors come from a wide range of backgrounds. Many are qualified teachers, while others are subject experts with degrees from top universities. You can see each tutor's specific qualifications and experience listed on their profile.
How long will it be before we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the benefit of one-to-one tutoring is that it's focused entirely on your child's needs. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions, which is the first step towards making real academic progress.
