Ffion W
Absolutely fabulous.. my daughter was in tears this week as her teachers at college refused to help , and isolated her from the class. Tonight after just one hour with Ffion, she has turned a corner for my daughter, going from feeling like a failure to feeling positive again and given her hope that she can do this. Cant thank her enough .. will definitely be booking her again.

We're aiming for schools like Queen Elizabeth's or Henrietta Barnett. Can a tutor help with the 11+ exams?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are specialists in 11+ preparation and have experience with the specific requirements of top grammar schools. They can help your child build skills in verbal and non-verbal reasoning, Maths, and English, as well as develop effective exam techniques to help them feel confident on the day.
My child is at a competitive local school. Can a tutor keep up with their demanding curriculum?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors are experienced in supporting students from a wide range of academic backgrounds, including those in high-achieving schools. They can help reinforce classroom learning, stretch your child in areas they excel, and provide extra support on challenging topics, ensuring they stay on track and feel positive about their studies.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect fit. You can filter tutors by subject and level, then browse their profiles. We encourage you to watch their short introduction videos, read their bios, and check reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs.
How much does online tutoring cost in East Finchley?
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 fees or contracts.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All of our tutors are background-checked and must pass a rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from the very best.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring creates a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling self-conscious. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, tutors help your child see their own progress, which is a huge confidence booster.

Our online classroom is simple to use and has everything your child needs for a great lesson. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes and working through problems together, and a space to upload documents like past papers or essays.

Lessons are typically one hour long, which we find is the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child.
What if we need to reschedule a lesson?
We understand that life can be unpredictable. You can easily cancel or reschedule a lesson through the platform. Just be sure to give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice to avoid being charged for the session.
