While it might seem different from traditional A-Levels, General Studies develops the exact skills that highly competitive universities look for: critical thinking, clear argumentation, and the ability to analyse information from different viewpoints. A great tutor helps your child connect what they learn in the classroom—whether it's debating a current affairs topic or dissecting a philosophical argument—to the demands of their chosen degree course, strengthening their entire university application.

Zohra M
Tutor that makes the harder STEM concepts easier!
Hi! I am Zohra and I am currently studying Biochemistry at University. To be completely honest Biology was my least favourite Science out of the three - funnily enough it forms the majority of my degree. It was very challenging in the beginning but I can assure you that it does get easier, only by having patience and consistently putting in hard work!I studied for my A Levels during the pandemic when we had online lessons which was a challenge to get used to but from this experience. I can empathise with the feeling of online studying and working on your own as I have been in your shoes before!...

Alex R
This was a general chat with Alex regarding our requurements. Went very well and we have decided to use Alex going forward. Only issue is that Alex wasn't able to add the session as a chat and so we have been charged - possibly an issue with the app which I am sure we can get resolved

Dania H
My first lesson with Miss Dania was very helpful. She explained core concepts of topics Iwas struggling with very well and made sure the lesson was interactive by constantly asking me questions and marking me think deeper about the reasoning behind difficult topics. She also explained how to answer questions based on the markscheme and went through exam questions with me thoroughly too.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a Russell Group university. How can a General Studies tutor really help their application?
That's a great question. Tutors can help your child articulate the advanced critical thinking and analytical skills they've developed in General Studies, which are highly valued by Russell Group universities. They can help frame these skills in personal statements and prepare for interviews, turning the subject into a key strength that demonstrates intellectual curiosity.
With competition from top schools near Gants Hill, I'm worried General Studies might hold my child back. Is this true?
Not at all. When supported correctly, it can actually help your child stand out. A tutor can work with them to demonstrate a breadth of knowledge and a mature ability to form balanced arguments – qualities that admissions tutors find impressive and which can differentiate them from other high-achieving candidates.
How do I choose the right General Studies tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. Many of our tutors are experienced in university admissions support, so you can find someone who specifically understands how to help your child with their UCAS application. Feel free to message a few to find the perfect fit.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you have the best experience possible. 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 qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget.
How are your tutors vetted?
We take safety and quality very seriously. Every tutor is interviewed, has their ID and qualifications checked, and must pass a background check. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, ensuring your child learns from a trusted and experienced professional.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer with a stable internet connection, a webcam, and a microphone.
Can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Absolutely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the confidence boost it provides. A tutor creates a safe and supportive space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement, helping them to feel more prepared and self-assured in their abilities.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child also learn something like public speaking or coding?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! Your child can learn practical skills like coding, public speaking, music production, or even a new language. It's a great way to explore new interests and develop valuable life skills.
How long are the lessons?
Lessons are typically one hour long, which we find is the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in depth without losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to see what works best for your child.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person tutoring?
Yes, and many families find it even more effective. Online lessons are focused and distraction-free, and our interactive classroom has tools that make learning engaging. Plus, you get access to the best tutors from across the UK, not just those who live nearby.
What if my child needs to reschedule a lesson?
That's no problem. We have a flexible 24-hour cancellation policy. As long as you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, you can cancel or reschedule a lesson without any charge.
