Why General Studies is More Valuable Than You Think
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.

Paul N
Patient and motivating tutor
I am a very experienced Chemistry and science teacher and I know I can help you achieve success in your examinations. During the first lesson, I generally like to get to know my students and ask questions which enable me to ascertain where they currently are in terms of their understanding of Chemistry or Science. I then tailor future lessons for them and build up both their subject knowledge and confidence using very simplistic models which are analogous to the more complex topics we study. My lessons are very relaxed and give my students the opportunity to apply knowledge gained in lessons. Teaching...

Ju-Lee H
We've been with Ju-lee for over two years now - wow how time flies. I don't know why it took me so long to write a review. Must be because I don't usually write one.
We've been with Ju-lee on an ad-hoc basis and she has prepared my daughter for exams, private schools, grammar school and concerts.
First lesson with her she brought out this long 'master' sheet that alarmed my daughter and I. I thought she was never going to be able to do that.
But Ju-lee knew what she was doing, she broke them down and taught in manageable bits and we were both astounded.
Ju-lee knows her stuff and is understanding and patient. Thank you for all your guidance and directions. You are much appreciated.

An outstanding tutor who has made a real difference for my son. Since the mock exams, he has helped deliver a 2+ grade improvement, which speaks volumes about the quality of his teaching. His lessons are consistently engaging, clear, and well-structured for Business A-level, making even challenging topics accessible and interesting. He has gone above and beyond to support my son’s learning and confidence ahead of exams. I would highly recommend him to any student looking to improve their results.

Amba R
I have had Amba as my tutor for when I was retaking my law exam with almost zero knowledge. In just a few months with weekly lessons she has helped me massively to improve my writing, taught me and explained to me the topics I needed to understand and has always been pushing for improvement even when I was doing in her opinion. Due to this, I have managed to greatly pass the module that I needed to pass to progress onto my next year. I highly recommend her as a tutor.

Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

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.
