Jack R
Very patient and very clear when explaining stuff. Doesn’t go too fast and really knows what he’s talking about. I knew basically nothing about python before I got him, now I’m much more confident with everything and am able to do some good coding on my own. Would definitely recommend if you’re interested in anything python related!

Chinazaekpele J
She is absolutely amazing!! I am a mature student studying A levels; moving from a design background into science is a huge leap, Chinaze has been nothing but supportive and helpful. Her knowledge is impressive and she’s extremely flexible with lessons. Every time I’ve had a session with her, I’ve left feeling very confident. I’m that annoying student who is always asking why and she always has an answer, even if it’s not relevant to the subject. Really grateful to have found her :)

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a competitive course at the University of Glasgow. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are specialists in preparing students for university applications. They can help your child deepen their subject knowledge for Highers, ensuring they meet the demanding entry requirements for competitive courses at universities like Glasgow or Edinburgh, and can also offer support with personal statement writing.
The academic pressure at schools like Bearsden Academy is intense. How can a tutor help my child manage this?
We understand that pressure completely. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, supportive space away from the classroom competition. They can help your child break down challenging topics, build effective study habits, and work at their own pace. This personalised support often turns anxiety into confidence, helping them feel in control of their learning.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for success. That’s why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect match for your child for any reason, 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 it just for National 5s and Highers, or can my child learn other skills like coding?
It’s for so much more! While we have thousands of tutors for core academic subjects, we also have experts who can teach practical and creative skills. You can find tutors for everything from coding and learning a musical instrument to public speaking and new languages.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can start by using our search filters to find tutors with experience in your child's specific subject and level. You can watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message them for free to ask questions before you book. This helps you get a real sense of their personality and teaching style.
How much does online tutoring in East Dunbartonshire cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically range from £25 to £50, depending on their experience and the subject level. The price is clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked, and we verify their ID and qualifications. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from a pool of highly experienced and trusted professionals.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence, not just improve grades?
Confidence is at the heart of what we do. In a one-to-one setting, your child has the tutor's full attention. This allows them to ask questions without feeling embarrassed, celebrate small wins, and see their own progress. This personalised encouragement helps them believe in their own abilities, which is a benefit that lasts long after the exams are over.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most lessons are one hour long, which we find is the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in depth without losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor, as some may offer shorter or longer sessions depending on your child's needs.
What happens in an online lesson? What tools do you use?
Our online classroom is designed to be as interactive as a face-to-face lesson. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a tool for sharing documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
How many lessons will my child need?
This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students have a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others have regular weekly lessons throughout the school year. You can discuss a plan with your tutor after the first session to decide what works best for your family.
Can I see reviews from other parents?
Yes, absolutely. Every tutor profile features reviews and ratings from other parents and students. We're proud to have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100+ customer reviews, which you can read to help you make an informed choice.
