Opening Doors to Top Colleges and Universities
Strong GCSEs are the key that unlocks the next stage of your child's education. A high grade in Maths isn't just about mastering algebra; it's a requirement for many A-Level courses and degrees. Likewise, being able to confidently analyse quotes in an essay on 'Macbeth' for English Literature shows the critical thinking skills that top institutions look for. Our tutors help your child build these core skills, giving them a solid foundation to aim for places at Bolton Sixth Form College and, later on, respected universities in the North West and beyond.

Personalised Tutoring to Help Your Child Stand Out
The right tutor does more than just teach a subject; they get to know your child. They'll take the time to understand how your child learns best, where they're struggling, and what their goals are. You can feel reassured knowing we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, and all are background-checked. It’s a partnership designed to help your child feel understood and supported. Every single lesson is planned around your child's specific needs. If there's a particular topic from a GCSE science lesson they didn't quite grasp, their tutor can focus the whole session on it until they feel confident. This tailored approach is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade with us, and many GCSE students see their results improve by up to two grades. Finding that perfect support shouldn't add to your family's stress. With online tutoring, there's no need to worry about travel after a long day. You can find a brilliant tutor who fits your child's needs and your family's schedule, with lessons happening from the comfort of your own home. It’s flexible, convenient support that works for you.

The structure of my lessons are determined by the students academic level and learning style. I use a virtual whiteboard to help solve formulae or visualise problems.

Alisdair T
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.

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child has their heart set on Bolton Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students secure top GCSE grades to meet the entry requirements for popular colleges. They can focus on specific subjects, improve exam technique, and build the confidence your child needs to perform their best.
We're worried about the competition from other Bolton schools. How can a tutor help my child keep up?
It's a common concern, and one-to-one tutoring is a great way to address it. A private tutor can give your child personalised attention that's not possible in a busy classroom, helping them to fill any knowledge gaps and even get ahead of the syllabus. This ensures they are just as prepared as any other student.
How do I find the right online tutor for my child in Farnworth?
It's simple. You can use our search filters to find tutors by subject, level (like GCSE or A-Level), and price. You can read their profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors before booking to make sure they're a great fit for your child.
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 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?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. Tutors set their own rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor who fits within your family's budget.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our absolute priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy about in class. As their tutor helps them overcome challenges and they start to see their own progress, their self-belief naturally grows.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also offer support for a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get into coding with Python, or even learn a new language, you can find a brilliant tutor for it here.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space to share documents. This allows your child and their tutor to work through problems together in real-time, just as they would in person.
How quickly will we see an improvement in our child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach is designed for progress. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Can a tutor help with specific exam techniques?
Yes, this is one of the most valuable parts of tutoring. Our tutors can teach your child crucial skills like time management, how to understand what a question is really asking, and how to structure their answers to earn the most marks. This is especially helpful for exams like GCSEs and A-Levels.
Do we have to commit to a certain number of lessons?
Not at all. We believe in flexibility. You can book lessons one at a time or schedule a regular weekly slot with your tutor. There are no contracts or long-term commitments, so you can find a rhythm that works perfectly for your family.
