Hemal V
Hemal is very good and friendly Maths tutor. My daughter really enjoyed learning a GCSE topic from him in which she was not confident. Now She wants to have one more lesson with Hemal for another topic. Would highly recommend !

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

Callum A
Our son had a 15-minute introductory session with Callum focusing specifically on Transformations in Coordinate Geometry. We were genuinely impressed.
Callum explained rotations, reflections and translations in a clear, logical way, checked our son’s reasoning, and quickly identified the gaps in his understanding.
We’re now booking full sessions and feel confident that we’ve chosen a truly excellent maths tutor.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with the entry requirements for courses at the University of Glasgow or Strathclyde?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with their university ambitions. They can help your child focus on achieving the specific National 5 and Higher grades needed for competitive courses and build the strong study habits required for degree-level work.
My child is at one of the large Cumbernauld high schools. Can a tutor help them keep up?
Yes, this is one of the most common reasons parents seek our help. In a one-to-one setting, your child gets the tutor's full attention. This allows them to ask questions they might be shy about in a big class, revisit topics until they feel confident, and even get ahead of their classmates.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's simple. You can use our search filters to find tutors with the right experience. Each tutor has a detailed profile where you can see their qualifications, a video introduction, and reviews from other parents. You can also message them before booking to make sure it's a good fit.
How much do online tutors in Cumbernauld cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile with no hidden costs or subscriptions.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We have a strict vetting process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. All our tutors are DBS-checked and have their ID and qualifications verified.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right connection is key to learning. 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 does online tutoring actually work?
All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's a secure and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space for learning. When a child masters a topic they once found difficult, their self-belief grows. Our tutors are experts at celebrating these small wins, which builds a positive and resilient attitude towards their studies.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we cover all academic areas from Primary to A-Level, your child can also learn practical skills like coding, playing the guitar, a new language, or even get help with their driving theory test.
How quickly will we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is key. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. Academic improvement follows as the tutor helps close knowledge gaps and build stronger study skills.
How many other families have used Tutorful?
You're in good company! We've helped over 200,000 students achieve their goals. We're also rated 4.6 stars from over 4,100 customer reviews, so you can feel confident you're making a great choice for your child.
What happens if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
We understand that life can be unpredictable. Our tutors offer a flexible cancellation policy. As long as you give your tutor at least 12 hours' notice, you can reschedule your lesson for a more convenient time without any charge.
