Support That's Built Around Your Child

The right tutor does more than just teach a subject; they act as a mentor who gets to know how your child learns. We take the guesswork out of finding that perfect match. Every tutor is background-checked, and we only accept 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can feel confident you're choosing from the very best. They will take the time to understand your child's strengths and where they need a bit more help, creating a supportive space for them to ask questions freely. With one-to-one attention, every single lesson is shaped around your child's needs. If they're struggling with a particular topic for their GCSEs, the tutor can focus the entire session on clearing it up. If they're preparing for grammar school entrance exams, their tutor can work through practice papers and build exam technique. It's this dedicated approach that helps so many students build momentum, with 90% improving by at least one grade. We know family life is busy. That's why our online tutoring is designed to be flexible. You can find an expert tutor from anywhere in the UK and schedule lessons at times that fit around your child's school and other activities. There's no travel, no stress – just simple, effective learning that works for your family in Devon.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to apply to the University of Exeter. Can a tutor help?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in A-Level subjects and can provide the focused support your child needs to aim for top grades. They can also help with university application skills, such as personal statement writing and preparing for interviews, to help their application stand out.

Can a tutor help my child prepare for grammar school entrance exams in Devon?

Yes, we have many tutors with specific experience in 11+ and common entrance exams. They can help your child get familiar with the format, build their confidence in Verbal and Non-Verbal Reasoning, and develop the core Maths and English skills needed to perform their best on the day.

How do I pick the right tutor for my child?

You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.

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

We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. 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 the tutors safe and background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an identity and background check. We are very selective, only accepting 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

We live in a rural part of Devon. How does online tutoring help us?

Online tutoring is a perfect solution. It gives your child access to the best tutors from across the UK, not just those who live locally. You don't have to worry about travel time or costs, making it easy to fit expert support into your family's schedule, wherever you are in Devon.

How much does online tutoring 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 or subscriptions.

How can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence?

Confidence is often the biggest barrier to learning. A private tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where there are no silly questions. By working at your child's pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help them rebuild their self-belief and rediscover a love for learning.

Is it just for academic subjects like Maths and English?

Not at all! While we have thousands of tutors for core school subjects, you can also find experts to help your child learn a new language, master a musical instrument like the guitar, or even learn practical skills like coding in Python.

What happens in a typical online lesson?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a live video chat, an interactive whiteboard for drawing and sharing notes, and the ability to upload documents like past papers. It's a dynamic and engaging way for your child to learn.

How many students have you helped?

We're proud to have helped change lives through learning for over 200,000 students. We're trusted by thousands of parents, with a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 customer reviews.

How long are the lessons and how often should we have them?

Lessons are typically an hour long, and most students have one session per week. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange frequency and lesson length directly with your tutor to create a schedule that works best for your child's needs and your family's routine.
