Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends Hedingham School. Can we find a tutor familiar with the GCSE curriculum?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced teachers and examiners who are very familiar with the specific curriculum used in schools across Essex, including Hedingham School and Halstead School. You can view their profiles and even message them before booking to discuss your child's specific needs.
We're aiming for a place at the University of Essex. Can a tutor help with A-Level preparation?
Yes, we have many specialist A-Level tutors who can provide targeted support for university applications. They can help your child deepen their subject knowledge, master exam techniques, and build the confidence needed to achieve the grades required for competitive courses at universities like the University of Essex.
How do I pick the right tutor for my child?
It's simple. You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and filter by subject and level. We recommend messaging a few tutors to find the best personality match for your child before you book your first session.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. 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 in Halstead cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, but they are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete control over what you spend.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked, and we interview every single one. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's all done through our purpose-built online classroom, which has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. It's easy to use and means your child can learn from the comfort of home, at a time that suits your family.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
By providing a safe, one-to-one space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Our tutors offer constant encouragement and celebrate small wins, which helps your child see their own progress and believe in their abilities. This boost in confidence often has a positive impact on their schoolwork too.
Can tutoring help improve my child's GCSE grades?
Yes, it can make a big difference. Our tailored, one-to-one approach is designed to tackle specific areas of weakness and build on your child's strengths. In fact, our focused support can help students improve their GCSE results by up to two grades.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard session length is one hour, which we find is perfect for keeping students engaged and making real progress. However, you can always discuss different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor.
Is it just for core school subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for Maths, English, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other subjects and skills. From learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding, there's a tutor for almost any interest.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Simply search for your subject, find a tutor you like, and send them a message to arrange your first session. Many tutors can be available within a day or two.
