Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive course at St Andrews. Can a tutor help with that?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students achieve the high grades needed for top universities. They can focus on the specific Higher or Advanced Higher curriculum, help with exam technique, and build the confidence your child needs to stand out in their application.

Are your tutors familiar with the Scottish curriculum, like National 5s and Highers?

Yes. You can easily filter for tutors with specific experience in the Scottish SQA curriculum. They understand the requirements for National 5, Higher, and Advanced Higher courses, ensuring the support your child receives is perfectly aligned with what they're learning in school.

How do I find the right tutor in Fife for my child?

It's simple. Just use the search bar to find tutors for your child's subject and level. You can read their profiles, watch introduction videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can even message them for free before booking to make sure they're the perfect fit.

How can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed and has their ID verified. We also carry out background checks to ensure they are safe to work with children. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from the best.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 in Fife?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, starting from around £20 per hour. Tutors set their own rates, and you can see the price clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget.

How does online tutoring work?

All lessons take place in our online classroom, which is designed specifically for tutoring. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents, making it an engaging and effective way for your child to learn.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

One-to-one attention makes a huge difference. In a supportive space, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor helps them see their own progress, which is a fantastic confidence booster.

Is tutoring just for academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?

It's for both! While we have experts in core subjects like Maths, English, and Biology, we also have brilliant tutors who can teach practical skills like coding, learning a musical instrument like the guitar, or even a new language.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that a one-hour lesson each week works best. This provides consistency and gives your child time to practise between sessions. However, it's completely flexible, and you can arrange a schedule that works for you and your child directly with your tutor.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. Your tutor will provide feedback after each lesson to let you know how your child is getting on, what they covered, and what they're planning for next time. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's progress.

What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?

Life gets busy, we understand. You can easily cancel or reschedule a lesson through your Tutorful account. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 12 hours' notice to avoid being charged for the session.
