Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child attends Great Torrington School. Can a tutor help them secure a place at Petroc College?

Absolutely. Many parents use Tutorful to give their child the focused support needed to achieve the GCSE grades required for specific college courses, like those at Petroc. Our tutors can work on the exact topics and exam skills your child needs to strengthen their application.

We're hoping for a place at a competitive university like Exeter or Plymouth. Can a tutor help with that?

Yes. Our tutors can provide support beyond GCSEs, helping with A-Level subjects to ensure your child achieves the grades needed for top universities. They can also offer guidance on study skills and exam preparation essential for higher education.

How do I choose the right online tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ask any questions and make sure they're the perfect fit for your child.

How much does online tutoring cost in Great Torrington?

The cost varies depending on the tutor's experience, subject, and level. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence for their exams?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In one-to-one sessions, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. By working through problems together and celebrating small wins, tutors help build your child's self-belief, which is just as important as subject knowledge.

How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed and must provide a valid DBS check. We also verify their ID and qualifications. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.

What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know that the right personal connection is key to 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.

Is tutoring just for core subjects like Maths and English?

Not at all. While we have fantastic tutors for all school subjects, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. You can find tutors for modern languages, musical instruments like guitar, and even practical skills like coding and Python.

What technology do we need for online lessons?

It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no software to download. It includes an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and document sharing.

How long does a typical tutoring session last?

Most sessions last for one hour, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths with your tutor if needed.

How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?

You can often find and book a tutor for a lesson within 48 hours, and sometimes even sooner. Many of our tutors have flexible schedules to accommodate your needs.

Are the online lessons recorded?

Yes, all lessons are recorded. This is a great feature for your child to re-watch explanations and revise key topics whenever they need a refresher. It also gives you peace of mind, as you can review the sessions yourself.
