Jorge F
Experienced Spanish and Portuguese tutor.
Hello I am Jorge. I am originally Portuguese with Spanish roots and I love to both teach and learn. I've studied Spanish up to University and I've lived in the UK for more than eight years. I've tutored some pupils in the local community, helped them in Spanish with good results. Portuguese is my first language and I am ready to help anyone reach their targets. Both Portuguese and Spanish are very similar languages which are derived from Latin. For an English speaking student it can be very hard to comprehend the languages at times. My approach to teaching pupils is by finding an easy and simple...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to study at the University of Glasgow. Can a tutor help with their Higher results?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in the Scottish curriculum and have extensive experience helping students prepare for their Higher exams. They can help your child deepen their subject knowledge, refine their exam technique, and build the confidence they need to achieve the grades required for competitive university courses.

We live in an area with a very competitive secondary school. Can a tutor help my child feel more prepared for their National 5s?

Definitely. A tutor can provide brilliant support during the run-up to National 5s. They can help fill any knowledge gaps, work through past papers, and provide a calm, encouraging space for your child to ask questions, helping them feel much more prepared and less anxious about their exams.

How do I choose the best tutor in Greater Glasgow for my child?

You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message them to ask about their experience. We recommend finding someone who not only has great subject knowledge but whose teaching style and personality you feel will be a good match for your child.

How much do online tutors 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 that fits within your family's budget.

How do you make sure your tutors are safe to work with children?

Your child's safety is our absolute priority. Every tutor is background-checked and must provide valid ID and references. We interview every tutor to ensure they are a great fit for our platform, and we're proud that we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply.

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

We know that the right fit is crucial for 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.

Can a tutor help if my child has lost their confidence in a subject?

Yes, this is one of the most powerful benefits of one-to-one tutoring. Our tutors create a patient and positive learning environment where it's okay to make mistakes. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild your child's self-belief and rediscover their enjoyment of a subject.

How does online tutoring work?

It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.

Do you offer tutoring for subjects beyond the Scottish curriculum, like music or coding?

We do! While we have many experts in core academic subjects, we also have talented tutors who can teach practical and creative skills like learning to play the guitar, coding in Python, or even learning a new language for fun.

How long does a tutoring session last?

The standard lesson length is one hour, which gives enough time to dive into a topic without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child's age and concentration span.

Do I have to commit to a certain number of lessons?

Not at all. We operate on a flexible, pay-as-you-go basis. You are not tied into any contracts or required to book a minimum number of sessions. You can book lessons week-by-week or arrange a block with your tutor – whatever suits your family best.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you in the loop. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's progress. Most importantly, you'll likely see a positive change in your child's confidence and attitude towards their studies.
