Alannah C
Alannah is an excellent tutor who explains clearly how to approach and answer exam questions. She adapts her teaching style to suit the way you learn, which genuinely makes a difference. I’ve had tutoring for over four years, from secondary school through to college, and she’s easily the best tutor I’ve had, especially when it comes to building confidence with examstyle questions. That confidence is one of the most important parts of revision once you understand the content, and she helps with that a lot.
The lessons could be a bit more engaging or fun, but aside from that she’s an excellent tutor and especially well suited for college level study. She’s very knowledgeable and always able to answer any questions you have.

Sam H
I started working with Sam quite late in the A-Level year, but despite the limited time he put in so much effort and support. He completely rebuilt my confidence in English Language and helped take me from a B to an A — the first A I’d ever achieved in English, and I got it in my actual A-Levels. He had me writing answers every week and always gave incredibly thorough, clear feedback that really helped me improve quickly. I genuinely wouldn’t have achieved my grade without him and can’t recommend him enough.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at Dronfield Henry Fanshawe. Can a tutor help them stand out for a competitive sixth form place?
Absolutely. Many parents in Dronfield use our tutors to give their child that extra support. A tutor can work with your child to target specific areas of the curriculum, helping them strengthen their knowledge and build the confidence needed to achieve the high GCSE grades required by top local sixth forms.
We're hoping our child can get into a university like Sheffield or Leeds. Can a tutor help with the step up to A-Levels?
Yes, our tutors are fantastic at bridging the gap between GCSE and A-Level. They can help your child master the more complex content and develop the independent study skills needed to succeed in their A-Levels and prepare a strong application for prestigious northern universities.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect fit. You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos. You can also message tutors beforehand to discuss your child's needs, and many offer a free 15-minute chat to ensure they're the right match before you book a lesson.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We have a strict vetting process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is background-checked and has their qualifications and ID verified, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically range from £20 to £45, depending on their experience and the subject level. You can easily filter by price to find an excellent tutor who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Our online classroom is designed to be as engaging as being in the same room. It includes live video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes and working through problems, and the ability to upload documents. Your child just needs a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone.
Can tutoring really help my child's confidence?
Yes, it's one of the biggest benefits we see. The one-to-one environment provides a safe, non-judgmental space for your child to ask questions they might be afraid to ask in class. This personal attention helps them overcome hurdles and see that they are capable of succeeding.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
Is tutoring only for GCSEs and A-Levels, or can you help with other things?
While we help thousands of students with academic subjects, our tutors offer support for all ages and stages. This includes 11+ prep, university-level courses, and even hobbies and personal skills like learning to play the guitar, coding in Python, or speaking a new language.

How long will my child need a tutor for?
It's completely flexible and up to you. Some students need a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others benefit from weekly support throughout the school year. There are no contracts, so you can book as many or as few lessons as your child needs.
Our family schedule is really busy. How does tutoring fit in?
That's the beauty of online tutoring. You can find tutors available in the evenings or at weekends, fitting lessons around school, clubs, and family commitments. There's no travel time involved, making it a convenient and stress-free way to get the support your child needs.
