Caring and experienced Piano teacher
I have been teaching piano for 30 years now. I actually started my business at the age of 12. I LOVE teaching! It’s what I’ve always wanted to do and that hasn’t changed over the years.

Louise G
My son who is in year 8 was really struggling with French so I set about finding a kind, calm and effective tutor to bolster his confidence and to enjoy learning a language. Very happy to say we found just this with Louise. My son enjoys his lessons and is really learning the fundamentals much better than school have taught him!

Gearoid C
Gearoid supported my son with GCSE English during a key transition period in Year 11. My son had moved schools and was adjusting to a different GCSE specification, which had left noticeable gaps in his knowledge. Gearoid helped him bridge those gaps methodically and clarified the expectations of the exam board.
From the very first session, there was a shift in confidence. My son came out saying, “So I’m not stupid.” Over time, that developed into him saying he “felt clever.” For a student who can struggle with processing speed and exam anxiety, this was a significant and meaningful change.
Gearoid is calm, professional and thoughtful in his approach. He communicates clearly, is reliable, and genuinely cares about his students’ progress. I am grateful for the role he played in rebuilding both understanding and belief.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're aiming for a grammar school in Chelmsford or Colchester. Can a tutor help with the 11+?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have specific experience with the entrance exams for top grammar schools. They can help your child build confidence in key areas like verbal and non-verbal reasoning, English, and Maths, tailoring lessons to cover the specific format of the exams.
My child is applying to an independent school like Felsted. Do you have tutors with experience in this?
Yes, we do. You can find tutors who have experience preparing students for entrance exams and interviews at leading independent schools. They can provide targeted support to help your child feel prepared and confident for every stage of the application process.
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 and experience on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking a session to make sure you find the perfect fit.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right personal connection is key to successful learning. 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 much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor who also fits your family's budget.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space where your child can ask questions without fear of being judged by their classmates. Tutors provide constant encouragement and celebrate small wins, which helps build self-esteem and a positive attitude towards learning.
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 personally interview every applicant. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing to make learning engaging and effective.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
It's for much more than just school work! We have expert tutors who can teach a huge range of skills and hobbies, from learning to play the guitar or piano to mastering new languages or learning to code in Python. It's a great way for your child to explore their interests.
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 always discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child's schedule and concentration span.
We also need help with GCSEs or A-Levels. Can we find tutors for that?
Of course. We have thousands of expert tutors specialising in GCSE and A-Level subjects. Whether your child needs help structuring an essay or getting to grips with complex scientific concepts, you can find a specialist to support them through these important qualifications.
How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?
You can find and message tutors straight away. Many of our tutors reply very quickly, and it's often possible to find the perfect match and have your first lesson scheduled within 24-48 hours, depending on your and the tutor's availability.
