Ben H
Experienced and engaging tutor of English and music.
I firmly believe that teaching is a two-way process. Whether I'm in a classroom or online, I will create a dialogue so the pupils/tutees feel involved in the process and are able to question, inquire and verbalise what we are learning. Very few people learn by being told something once, so my tutoring sessions are generally about discovery, mastery and learning side by side to answer the big questions along with my years of expertise providing the content.I have worked in education for 12 years in all sorts of settings, with a huge range of pupils. My track record is impressive and I firmly believe...

Effective tutor
My name is Lauren, I am a current BA Theology student at Canterbury Christ Church University. I have tutored in GCSE geography before online. My then student and I went through his weaker topics a few times. This made sure he was as comfortable and confident as he could be when it came to sitting the exam. I have also tutor in GCSE English, although I don’t offer that service anymore, I approach the teaching in a similar way. For example, we would discuss relevant quotations and language techniques. Again focusing on weaker parts at stages, I did make sure to cover as much as possible with both s...

Ffion W
Absolutely fabulous.. my daughter was in tears this week as her teachers at college refused to help , and isolated her from the class. Tonight after just one hour with Ffion, she has turned a corner for my daughter, going from feeling like a failure to feeling positive again and given her hope that she can do this. Cant thank her enough .. will definitely be booking her again.

Greg B
Greg is a fantastic tutor, he makes the lessons fun and is very patient.
Greg was very thorough and thoughtful in his prep and feedback for each lesson provided. He gave us regular updates post each class regarding what was covered and progress on the topic and was very flexible and a total pleasure.
Greg has successfully tutored my son through the 11+ exams and my son looked forward to his sessions with Greg each week. I can’t recommend Greg enough!

Nigel Q
My 15-year-old son is working through the GCSE Spanish with Nigel. I am very relieved to have found such a good teacher. He is clear and thorough, and he encourages him throughout the lessons. It is clear that Nigel knows the syllabus well and is an experienced teacher, which in my opinion is very important for the exams. Most importantly, my son enjoys the lessons and thinks Nigel is an excellent teacher.
I also rate this site 5 stars. It is clear and simple to use.

Siobhan R
My son has been tutoring with Siobhan for quite a while now and all i can say is how fantastic she has been in guiding him through his mathematics journey!
Her patience, ways of explaining and using visuals to help him understand, the time she takes to get to know how he learns and checking to ensure he fully grasps a concept, are all very commendable!
His confidence has increased and he looks forward to his lessons knowing that Siobhan will be there to support him in a subject that previously he was very anxious about.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the Kent Test. Can I find a tutor with experience in this?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ and entrance exam preparation, including the specific requirements of the Kent Test. You can view their profiles to see their experience and message them directly to discuss your child's needs before booking.
We're hoping for a grammar school place in Canterbury or Faversham. Can a tutor help?
Definitely. Our tutors can help your child build the skills and confidence needed for grammar school entrance exams. They can create a tailored plan focusing on the key areas, from verbal and non-verbal reasoning to Maths and English, to give your child the best possible preparation.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed profiles, watch introduction videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to chat about your child’s goals before you book your first session to ensure you find the perfect match.
How much do online tutors in Herne Bay cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which typically start from around £20 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single UK-based tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure your child feels comfortable and happy with their tutor. If it's not the right fit for any reason, our First Lesson Guarantee has you covered. Just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
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 and a stable internet connection.
How can tutoring help my child's confidence?
One-to-one attention in a supportive space makes a huge difference. A tutor can go at your child's pace, celebrate their progress, and help them overcome specific hurdles without the pressure of a classroom. This personalised support often leads to a big boost in self-belief.
Is tutoring just for exams, or can my child learn a hobby like guitar or coding?
It's for both! While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects like Maths, English and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical skills and hobbies, including music, coding languages like Python, art, and much more.
How quickly will we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our experience shows that consistent, tailored support makes a real impact. Many parents tell us they see a positive change in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of students improve by at least one grade.
My child is thinking about the University of Kent. Can a tutor help with their A-Levels?
Yes. We have many specialist A-Level tutors who can provide in-depth subject knowledge to help your child secure the grades they need for university applications, including for competitive courses at the University of Kent.
Can we schedule lessons to fit around school and other clubs?
Of course. The flexibility of online tutoring is a huge benefit for busy families. You can view each tutor's availability on their profile and arrange sessions for evenings, weekends, or holidays – whatever works best for you.
