Daniel P
Daniel kindly came in at the last minute to help my son understand what was needed for his EAPI (part of A level PE coursework). Daniel was really responsive, and gave great advice in a form my son understood how to implement. My son just did his EAPI today and the feedback from his teacher/examiner is that he did very well. I am confident that Daniel's intervention has resulted in my son getting a higher grade than he would have otherwise.

Richard S
Richard is an excellent tutor with great advice. Instead of telling me the answer he allows me to independently think and gives small clues on how to get to the answer. He also provided me with great key points and acronyms that help me remember essay structure as well as giving me external resources which contain useful information for my exam.

Jack R
We’ve had a fantastic experience with Jack as a maths tutor - so far my daughter had three sessions with him. Jack is an excellent communicator and explains concepts clearly and step-by-step, making even the all topics feel manageable. His lessons are well-structured and thoughtfully tailored to my daughter’s needs (we aim for confidence in class and confident GCSE mark).
Jack is also incredibly friendly and positive, which creates a really encouraging learning environment - one of my key requirements. My daughter genuinely enjoys her lessons with him and is already feeling much more confident in her maths curriculum. Highly recommended!

asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to Oldham Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help them achieve the required GCSE grades?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students prepare for their GCSEs with a focus on meeting the entry requirements for competitive colleges. They can work with your child to strengthen subject knowledge and improve exam technique to help them secure the grades they need.
We're aiming for A-Levels that could lead to a place at the University of Manchester. Can tutors help with that long-term goal?
Yes, our tutors are brilliant at supporting long-term academic goals. By building a strong foundation at GCSE, they help set your child up for success at A-Level and beyond, giving them the confidence and skills needed for competitive university applications.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ask any specific questions you might have.
How much do online tutors in Failsworth cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. Tutors set their own rates, so you can easily find someone who fits your budget. All pricing is clearly displayed on their profile.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. With our 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.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS check before they can teach on our platform. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?
Sometimes, a lack of confidence is the biggest barrier to learning. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of judgement. This personalised attention and encouragement often leads to a big boost in their self-belief.
Is tutoring just for core school subjects?
Not at all. While we have thousands of tutors for subjects like Maths, English, and Science, you can also find experts to help your child learn skills like coding, playing the guitar, or even speaking a new language.
How long does it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Consistent, weekly lessons often lead to noticeable improvements in both confidence and understanding within just a few weeks.
Can we have lessons at weekends or in the evenings?
Yes, that's one of the main benefits of online tutoring. Our tutors offer a wide range of availability, including after school, evenings, and weekends, so you can easily fit lessons around your family's schedule.
What happens in a typical tutoring session?
A session is tailored to your child's needs. It might start with a quick review of what they covered in school that week, move on to tackling a tricky topic using the interactive whiteboard, and finish by working through some practice exam questions together.
