Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a competitive London university like LSE or UCL. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Our tutors can provide targeted A-Level support to help your child master their subjects and achieve the high grades needed for entry. They can also help develop crucial exam techniques and build the confidence required to perform well under pressure, strengthening their university application.
Competition for good secondary school places near Covent Garden is intense. Can you help?
Yes. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students stay ahead of the curve. They can reinforce what your child is learning at school, fill in any knowledge gaps, and build a strong foundation in key subjects to help them stand out and feel confident amongst their peers.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It’s easy to find the perfect match. You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking to make sure you've found the right fit.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right connection 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 cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience, typically starting from £25 per hour. You can see the price clearly on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden costs. You simply find an expert who fits your budget.
Are your tutors properly vetted?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We are very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor must pass an interview with our team and undergo a background check before they can teach on our platform.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one lessons create a safe, judgment-free space for your child to ask questions they might be hesitant to ask in class. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, our tutors help your child see their own progress, which is a huge confidence booster.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes live video chat, an interactive whiteboard for drawing and sharing notes, and the ability to upload documents. It has all the tools needed for your child to have an engaging, one-to-one lesson from home.
Do you offer tutoring for more than just core academic subjects?
We do! While we have experts for Maths, English, and Science, you can also find brilliant tutors for a wide range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, speak Spanish, or get started with coding, we have a specialist who can help.
How long are the lessons and how often should they be?
Lessons are typically one hour long, and most families find that one session per week works well. However, the schedule is completely flexible and up to you. You can arrange a frequency that best suits your child's needs and your family's timetable.
How do I know if my child is making real progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. The biggest sign of progress, however, is often a change in your child's attitude. When they start feeling more positive about a subject and their confidence grows, you'll know the tutoring is making a real difference.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person?
Yes, and for many families, it's even better. It removes travel time, gives you access to the best tutors across the UK, and uses interactive tools that make learning engaging. With over 200,000 happy students, we're confident it's a brilliant way to learn.
