The Right Support for Your Child, Right When They Need It
We believe the best learning happens when a tutor truly understands your child. That's why we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring they are not just subject experts, but are also skilled at building a supportive connection. All our tutors are background-checked, so you can have complete peace of mind. They’ll take the time to learn how your child thinks, what they find tricky, and how to help them have those 'lightbulb' moments. Every online lesson is built around your child. There’s no one-size-fits-all plan here. If they’re struggling with a specific part of the Chemistry syllabus or need to practise exam technique for English Literature, their tutor will focus the session exactly where it’s needed most. This personalised approach is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Finding the right support shouldn’t add to your to-do list. With online tutoring, you can connect with the best tutors from across the UK without leaving your home in Faringdon. Lessons are easy to schedule around school, clubs, and family life, making it simple to get your child the help they need, when they need it.

Alisdair is a real pro. I was stuck with the SPSS analysis of my thesis and in three short sessions he explained everything in such a learner-friendly way that I could navigate around all the functions with ease. I highly recommend Alisdair for similar projects and wanted to also send a big THANK YOU all the way from Austria!

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child goes to Faringdon Community College. Can a tutor help them secure a place at a competitive sixth form in Oxford or Swindon?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students strengthen their applications for post-16 education. They can work with your child to target the specific GCSE grades needed, build their subject knowledge, and improve their exam technique to help them stand out.
We're aiming for a top university. Can a tutor help build a strong enough academic foundation at GCSE?
Yes, building a strong foundation is exactly what our tutors do. By focusing on deep understanding rather than just memorisation, a tutor can help your child develop the critical thinking and analytical skills that top universities, including those in the Russell Group, look for.
How do I find the right tutor in Faringdon for my child?
You can easily browse our tutors' profiles, which include their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. Because our tutors are online, you're not limited to who is available locally in Faringdon. You can find the perfect expert for your child, no matter where they live.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have 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.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools, making it easy for your child to learn and collaborate with their tutor just as they would in person.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We also manually interview and vet every applicant, accepting only 1 in 8 to ensure the highest quality.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, but typically range from £20-£45 per hour. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
Confidence often grows from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. As their tutor helps them overcome challenges, they'll see what they're capable of, which can have a huge positive impact on their self-belief.
Is it just for core school subjects?
While we have fantastic tutors for Maths, English, and Science, we offer support in over 300 subjects. This includes everything from modern languages and history to practical skills like coding, learning a musical instrument like the guitar, or even university admissions tests.
How long will it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. Consistent weekly lessons are the best way to build momentum and work towards achieving those target grades.
Can we fit lessons around our busy family schedule?
Yes, flexibility is one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. You can arrange lessons for evenings, weekends, or even during school holidays – whatever works best for your family. You agree on the schedule directly with your chosen tutor.
What makes Tutorful different from other tutoring services?
Parents trust us to deliver high-quality, personalised support. With a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews and a community of over 200,000 happy students, our focus is on finding the perfect tutor for your child. Our strict vetting process means you're choosing from the very best.
