One-to-One Support That Makes a Real Difference

Finding the right person to support your child is everything. That’s why we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring every tutor is not only an expert in their subject but also skilled at connecting with students. They are all background-checked, so you can feel completely confident. Your child's tutor will take the time to understand how they learn best, creating a supportive space where asking questions is encouraged and confidence can grow. Every lesson is built around your child. If they need to focus on verbal reasoning for the 11+, that's what the session will cover.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is preparing for the 11+ for schools like Graveney and Emanuel. Can we find a specialist tutor?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in preparing children for the 11+ and entrance exams for specific independent and grammar schools. You can use our search filters to find tutors with proven experience in helping students succeed in these competitive exams.

We're aiming for a top London university like UCL or Imperial. How can a tutor help with A-Levels?

An A-Level tutor can provide in-depth subject knowledge and help your child master the exam technique needed to secure top grades. They can work through difficult topics, practise past papers, and help your child articulate their knowledge in a way that impresses examiners, which is crucial for applications to competitive universities.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications and experience on their profile. We recommend sending messages to a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding a great personality match.

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

We know how important the relationship between a tutor and student is. That's 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 much does online tutoring in Clapham cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile with no hidden costs.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single UK-based tutor is background-checked and reference-checked before they can teach on our platform. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply.

How does online tutoring actually work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn from home.

How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?

Sometimes, all a child needs is a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A one-to-one tutor provides patient, encouraging support, celebrating small wins and breaking down topics until they click. This personalised attention is often the key to rebuilding their self-belief.

Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical and creative skills. Whether your child wants to learn to code in Python, play the guitar, or speak a new language, you can find a brilliant tutor for it here.

My child is studying for their GCSEs. Can a tutor really help improve their grades?

Yes, they can make a significant difference. Our data shows that focused, one-to-one support can help improve a student's GCSE results by up to two grades. A tutor can help fill knowledge gaps and teach your child the exam techniques needed to perform their best.

How long will it take to see results?

Every child learns at their own pace, but many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions. Consistent lessons are the best way to build momentum and achieve long-term grade improvement.

What if our schedule changes? Are lessons flexible?

Yes, flexibility is one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. You can easily schedule sessions at times that work for your family. If you need to reschedule, you can do so by giving your tutor 24 hours' notice.
