How General Studies Can Strengthen Your Child's University Application
Far from being a 'filler' subject, General Studies helps your child develop crucial skills that admissions tutors at Russell Group universities value highly. It teaches them how to analyse complex information, form a balanced argument, and debate contemporary issues – the exact abilities they'll need for university seminars and essays. By mastering these skills, your child learns *how* to think critically, complementing traditional subjects like English or History and demonstrating they are ready for the rigours of higher education.

Annette K
Patient and fun loving biology tutor
I have a flexible and creative approach to tutoring. I have always enjoyed the challenge of explaining a complex concept in a simple and accessible way. My love of science and maths is grounded in the way they provide logical explanations for the way things work in this world. I have 4 young children which has helped me to develop a clear communication style. My approach to tutoring is to talk through and discuss each topic on the syllabus, one topic per lesson. The discussion involves me explaining areas the student may not fully grasp and the student explaining the topic back to me in their own...

Amirhossein S
Amir has been and continues to be fantastic.In a very short period of time (weeks) he has taken my son up a grade/grade and a half in both maths and computer science. We shall most definitely be continuing with Amir up to my son’s A levels and now fully expect him to achieve As in both. My son even said the other day that if he had had Amir a year ago, he could have even studied further maths. The confidence Amir has given my son back is quite something. I am very grateful to Amir, he is a very great tutor.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is applying to top London universities. Can a tutor help make their General Studies A-Level an asset?
Absolutely. A specialist tutor can help your child focus on the critical thinking and analytical skills that top universities look for. They can work on refining essay techniques and debating complex topics, helping your child demonstrate a level of academic maturity that will strengthen their whole UCAS application.
We live in Gidea Park and my child attends a competitive local sixth form. Can you find a tutor familiar with this academic pressure?
Yes. Many of our tutors have experience supporting students from high-achieving schools. They understand the pressure to perform and can provide targeted support that not only helps with grades but also builds confidence and reduces study-related stress.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level, so you can find an expert tutor that fits your family's budget.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which features a whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. Tutors tailor each session to your child's needs, whether that's going over tricky algebra problems, analysing a quote from 'Macbeth', or practising exam questions.
What if we don't click with the 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 do you make sure your tutors are safe and professional?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, ensuring your child learns from a trusted and qualified expert.
Can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits we see. One-to-one attention from a supportive tutor helps your child ask questions they might not ask in class, building their self-belief and creating a more positive relationship with their studies.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with skills like personal statement writing?
We offer support for a huge range of needs. Alongside core subjects like Maths, English, and Science, many of our tutors specialise in university admissions, offering expert guidance on personal statements and interview practice to help your child stand out.
How long are the lessons?
Lessons are typically one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can arrange different lesson lengths by discussing it directly with your chosen tutor.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to arrange a time, and you could have your first lesson booked within 24 hours.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
Life happens! You can easily manage your schedule through the platform. Our cancellation policy requires giving your tutor at least 24 hours' notice to reschedule without charge, but it's always best to check your tutor's individual profile for their specific terms.
