Chris is a really patient and knowledgeable A-Level Chemistry tutor. Having been through quitea few chemistry tutors on tutorful before, I settled with Chris as Ifound his style of teaching really worked with me compared to other tutors. Chris' style for me is mainly to focus on understanding the key concepts to ensure I can apply these ideas to the exam effectively, and it is definetely working and I am gaining a lot of confidence very quickly. Would highly recommend.

Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Natalie G
Highly Recommended Maths Tutor!
Natalie is a fantastic tutor and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. She tailors every lesson to my daughter’s individual needs, and as a visual learner, my daughter finds her sessions engaging, fun, and easy to understand. Natalie prepares each lesson beautifully and always comes with creative ways to explain even the trickiest concepts.
We’ve used tutors for all three of our children over the years, and only Natalie and one other tutor have provided such thoughtful, detailed feedback after every session — something we find extremely valuable.
It’s genuinely hard to find a maths tutor who makes lessons enjoyable, but Natalie does exactly that.
For the first time ever, my daughter actually looks forward to her maths sessions! Her confidence has grown, and so have her skills.
I highly recommend Natalie to any child who struggles with maths or simply wants to strengthen their abilities. Thank you, Natalie, for your dedication and wonderful teaching approach!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is hoping to apply to the University of Exeter. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with their university applications, including personal statements and preparing for specific A-Level grades needed for universities like Exeter or Plymouth. You can find tutors with this specific experience by checking their profiles.
We live quite remotely in Cornwall. Does online tutoring really work as well as in-person?
Yes, and for many families, it works even better. Online tutoring removes geographical barriers, giving your child access to the best tutors across the UK, not just those nearby. Our interactive online classroom has tools like a whiteboard that make lessons engaging and effective, all from the comfort of your home.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. Many tutors also offer a short introductory chat before you book, so you can make sure they're a great fit for your child's personality and learning needs.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit 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.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can tutoring help my child with their GCSEs?
A dedicated tutor can make a huge difference. They can help fill in any knowledge gaps, build exam technique, and boost your child's confidence going into their exams. On average, we help students improve their GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
How much does online tutoring cost in Cornwall?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. Each tutor sets their own hourly rate, which is clearly displayed on their profile. This transparency allows you to find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget.
How does the online lesson actually work?
It's simple! Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, a shared whiteboard, and a space to upload documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a microphone, a camera, and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Often, a lack of confidence comes from not understanding a topic. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong. As their understanding grows with their tutor's patient guidance, their confidence naturally follows.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You might want more sessions in the run-up to an exam, or fewer during school holidays. You can discuss the best frequency directly with your tutor.
Is it just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like Maths, English and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language.
How quickly can I find a tutor?
You can find and book a tutor in just a few minutes. Simply search for your subject, browse the profiles of available tutors, and send a message to the one you think is the best fit. Many of our 200,000+ happy students have found their perfect tutor the very same day.
