Jack R
Very patient and very clear when explaining stuff. Doesn’t go too fast and really knows what he’s talking about. I knew basically nothing about python before I got him, now I’m much more confident with everything and am able to do some good coding on my own. Would definitely recommend if you’re interested in anything python related!

My daughter had only a brief time with Christopher but he was very reliable. He was very thorough in the topics we requested and obviously knew economics in detail. He expanded on subjects when required but kept it simple to understand- thank you so much for your time
Would recommend Christopher!

Chinazaekpele J
She is absolutely amazing!! I am a mature student studying A levels; moving from a design background into science is a huge leap, Chinaze has been nothing but supportive and helpful. Her knowledge is impressive and she’s extremely flexible with lessons. Every time I’ve had a session with her, I’ve left feeling very confident. I’m that annoying student who is always asking why and she always has an answer, even if it’s not relevant to the subject. Really grateful to have found her :)

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a competitive grammar school like Queen Elizabeth's. Can we find a tutor with 11+ experience?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in entrance exams, including the 11+. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in helping children prepare for the exams used by grammar schools in and around North London.
We're worried about GCSE grades for getting into a good sixth form. How can a tutor help?
This is a very common concern, and it's where one-to-one support shines. A tutor can identify the exact areas where your child needs help, work on exam technique, and build their confidence. For GCSEs, this focused approach can help improve results by up to 2 grades, which can be crucial for securing a place at a competitive sixth form.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications on their profile. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding a great personality fit.
How do you make sure tutors are safe to work with children?
Your child's safety is our absolute priority. Every UK-based tutor must provide a valid DBS check or equivalent background check. We also personally interview and vet every single tutor, and we only accept 1 in 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just 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 in Finchley cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £25 to £45 per hour. The price is based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can see each tutor's fee clearly on their profile, so there are no surprises.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is simple to use and has everything your child needs for a great lesson. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
Can tutoring really help my child feel more confident?
Yes, it often makes the biggest difference of all. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. As they start to understand tricky topics, their self-belief grows, and that confidence often carries over into the classroom.
Is it just for core subjects, or can you help with skills like coding or music theory?
It's for much more than just core school subjects! We have expert tutors across hundreds of topics, from learning Python, to mastering the guitar, to brushing up on public speaking skills. It's a great way for your child to explore a new passion or develop a valuable skill.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour-long lesson per week is a great starting point. This provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, you can arrange lessons as often as you like – you can discuss the best plan with your chosen tutor.
How long will it take to see an improvement?
Every child is different, but the one-to-one focus means progress can happen quickly. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. Consistent lessons are the key to building skills and seeing that translate into better results at school.
What makes Tutorful different from other platforms?
We believe it's our focus on quality and support. We are incredibly selective about our tutors and provide a purpose-built, safe online classroom. The feedback from over 4,100 reviews gives us an average rating of 4.6/5, which we think shows our commitment to helping families like yours.
