Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can online tutors in Derby help me get into competitive universities like Nottingham or Loughborough?

Absolutely! Many students use Tutorful to boost their A-Level grades and refine their university applications, including personal statements and interview prep. A tutor can help you aim higher and feel more confident about applying to your dream university, wherever it is.

I'm aiming for strong GCSEs, maybe even for Littleover Community School's sixth form. Can a tutor help me prepare?

Yes, definitely. Our tutors are experts at helping students in Derby achieve their GCSE goals. They can provide targeted support in specific subjects, help you understand complex topics, and practise exam techniques, which can lead to an improvement of up to 2 grades in your GCSE results.

Is Tutorful just for school subjects, or can I learn other skills?

While we're fantastic for academic subjects like Maths, English, and Science, you can also find tutors for a wide range of skills! This includes learning a new language, coding (like Python), musical instruments, or even creative writing. It's all about what *you* want to learn.

What if I don't click with my first tutor?

Your comfort and learning experience are our top priorities. 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. We want you to find the perfect match!

How do I choose the best online tutor for me?

It's easy! You can browse profiles of our background-checked tutors, read their reviews, and even watch introduction videos. Look for someone with experience in your subject, a teaching style that resonates with you, and availability that fits your schedule. You can message them directly before booking to see if they're a good fit.

How much does online tutoring in Derby cost?

Tutor prices vary depending on their experience and the subject, but you'll find a range of options to fit your budget. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, and there are no hidden fees.

How can a tutor help me build confidence in subjects like Maths or English?

A tutor provides a safe, one-to-one space where you can ask any question without judgment. They'll break down difficult concepts, celebrate your small wins, and help you overcome areas where you feel stuck. This personalised attention builds understanding and, more importantly, your belief in your own abilities.

What makes Tutorful's tutors so good?

We're very selective! We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, and every tutor is thoroughly background-checked. This means you're learning from highly qualified, passionate educators who are dedicated to helping students like you succeed.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple and interactive! You'll connect with your tutor through our virtual classroom, which has a whiteboard, document sharing, and video chat. You can work through problems together, review essays, or discuss concepts, all from your computer or tablet.

Can I get help with specific exams like GCSEs or A-Levels?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in exam preparation. They can help you understand exam structures, master past papers, improve your revision strategies, and teach you techniques to manage exam stress, giving you the best chance to perform well.

How quickly can I see results with a tutor?

While everyone learns at their own pace, many students start to feel more confident and see improvements in their understanding after just a few sessions. Our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade, demonstrating the real impact consistent, tailored support can have.

Are the tutors really based in the UK?

Yes, all our tutors are based right here in the UK. We pride ourselves on connecting you with local experts who understand the UK curriculum and education system inside out, providing relevant and high-quality support.
