Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to go to NEW College Pontefract. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE grades they need?
Absolutely. Many parents in Featherstone use our tutors to help their children secure the grades needed for local colleges. Our tutors can focus specifically on the GCSE curriculum, helping to strengthen weak areas and build exam confidence to give your child the best chance of success.
We live in Featherstone, but does that mean the tutor has to be local?
Not at all! That's the great thing about online tutoring. Your child can connect with the best subject specialists from across the UK, not just those who live nearby. This gives you a much wider choice of experts to find the perfect fit for your child's personality and learning style.
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 for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I pick the right tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's experience on their profile. You can also send them a message before booking to ask about their approach and see if they feel like a good match for your child.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from £15. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can easily filter by price on our search page to find experienced tutors in your budget.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Often, a lack of confidence comes from a fear of being wrong in front of a class. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions and make mistakes without any pressure. This personal support helps them truly understand a topic, which is the best confidence-booster there is.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson. There's an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, video chat so they can see and speak to their tutor, and a tool for sharing documents. It’s simple, secure, and easy to use.
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 have experts who teach practical skills and hobbies. You can find tutors for everything from coding and Python to learning the guitar or a new language.
How many lessons will my child need?
There's no set number. Some students have a few lessons to prepare for a specific exam, while others have weekly sessions throughout the school year. It’s completely flexible and depends on the goals you and your child have. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
Can we get help with A-Levels as well as GCSEs?
Yes, definitely. We have expert tutors for all levels, from Primary and SATs right through to GCSE, A-Level, and even university-level study. You can find a specialist to support your child at every stage of their education.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Many of our tutors respond to messages within a few hours. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to arrange a time, and you could have your first lesson booked for this week.
