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!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the 11+ for Queen Elizabeth's High School. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. We have many experienced tutors who specialise in 11+ preparation. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in entrance exams and even mention your target school in your initial message to find the perfect match for your child.
We're hoping my child will go to the University of Lincoln. Can a tutor help with A-Levels?
Definitely. Our A-Level tutors are experts in their subjects and can provide targeted support to help your child achieve the grades they need. Many can also offer guidance on personal statements and UCAS applications, giving your child a great advantage.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first 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 choose the right tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It’s all about finding someone your child will click with.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check and we verify their ID and references. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
How much does online tutoring in Gainsborough cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience, subject, and level of study. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your family's budget.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence?
This is one of the most powerful benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they help rebuild your child's self-belief, which often has a positive impact on all their subjects.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we have experts in core academic subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also have talented tutors who can teach music, languages, coding, and other hobbies. It's a great way to support your child's passions.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. Your child and their tutor can talk, write, and collaborate just like they would in person, all from the comfort of home.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most tutoring sessions are one hour long. This gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths with your tutor if needed – it’s completely flexible.
Do I have to commit to a block of lessons?
No, there's no long-term commitment. You can book lessons one at a time or schedule a regular weekly slot with your tutor. It's designed to be flexible and fit around your family's schedule and your child's needs.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to ask questions or discuss their development. Many parents tell us they see a noticeable improvement in their child's confidence and school results within just a few sessions.
