Aaliya B
As a parent, I’m very happy with the support my son has received so far from Aaliya. She is friendly, reliable, and puts in extra time to organise resources for each lesson. She tailors the lessons to my child’s needs and always goes over the work carefully to make sure my child fully understands it. After just a few sessions, I can already see my child becoming more confident. I would definitely recommend her to other parents.

Cedra J
Miss Cedra has been tutoring my y10 daughter for a few weeks now and she is finding the support super helpful. My daughter had a retest and said she found answering the 8 mark questions much easier and felt a lot more confident in some of the areas she was struggling. Would definitely recommend Miss Cedra as she has a wide knowledge on subjects and is patient and attentive.

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.

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.
