Mustafa A
So far, I have had four lessons with Mustafa, and I have found him to be really supportive and thorough. In my first lesson, he took the time to identify my strengths and weaknesses in GCSE Chemistry so that he could prepare future lessons to the topics I was least confident in.
Throughout our lessons, we have worked through each topic carefully, making sure I fully understand the content before moving on. I also asked if we could go through my Chemistry mock exam questions in an upcoming lesson, and he was very happy to do so, which made me feel really supported. He always finishes lessons with exam questions, which has helped build my confidence and exam technique. Mustafa has also discussed revision techniques with me, which I’ve found very helpful when studying independently.
If there is any content I don’t understand, he quizzes me and explains it clearly until I feel confident. As someone who isn’t always confident in my answers, I now feel much more comfortable asking questions and learning from mistakes. I look forward to continuing my lessons with Mustafa. Thank you.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with the specific requirements for universities like Glasgow or Strathclyde?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for top Scottish universities. They can focus on the specific Higher grades your child needs and help them build the strong academic profile required for their chosen course.
My child is focused on their S5 Highers. Can we find a tutor who specialises in the SQA curriculum?
Yes. You can easily filter for tutors who have specific experience with the Scottish curriculum, including National 5s and Highers. They understand the course content and exam structure, ensuring the support your child receives is completely relevant.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child in East Ayrshire?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their teaching style. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's needs and make sure it’s a good fit.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have a 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 much does online tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level, so you can find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your budget.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident about their exams?
Confidence comes from understanding. A tutor can identify the exact topics your child is struggling with and explain them in a new way. This one-to-one attention helps fill knowledge gaps, practise exam technique, and reduce anxiety, leaving them feeling prepared and in control.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced DBS check. We also personally interview every tutor to ensure they are passionate, knowledgeable, and ready to support your child.
How does Tutorful know its tutors are any good?
We have a very selective process – only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted. We look for brilliant communicators with proven teaching experience. Plus, with over 4,100 customer reviews and a 4.6-star rating, you can trust the feedback from thousands of other parents.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something new?
While we have experts across all school subjects, we also offer tutors for skills like coding, learning a musical instrument like guitar, or even a new language. It's a great way for your child to explore new interests with expert guidance.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is easy to use and has everything your child needs, including an interactive whiteboard.
How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should they be?
Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find that a weekly session works best to build momentum and see consistent progress, but the frequency is completely up to you and can be discussed with your tutor.
How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?
You can get started very quickly. Many parents find and book the perfect tutor within 24 hours. You can message tutors directly to check their availability and arrange your first lesson at a time that suits you.
