Steven B
We've only had a few sessions so far, but we've been really pleased. My kids maths teacher has noticed a marked uplift in ability and engagement which I put down to an increasing understanding of the fundamentals, that he wouldn't have otherwise. Steven is always quick to respond, and flexible. My kid reports Steven is cheerful and patient. Steven was clear from the first session on the likely challenges and focus areas. Would recommend;

Derek has been a fantastic tutor, generous and kind in his outlook and thoroughly understanding Maths.

Thank you Derek 🙏

Joseph I
Joseph has made a powerful impact on my son’s confidence and performance in GCSE Maths. His sessions are focused, precise, and entirely exam-driven. He works directly with past papers, marking schemes, and timing strategies, ensuring that every minute is purposeful and aligned with exam success.
What truly sets Joseph apart is his ability to make complex exam expectations feel clear and manageable. My son leaves each session energised, confident, and believing in his ability. That shift in mindset has been just as important as the technical improvement.
Joseph is calm, direct, and exceptionally effective at breaking things down into clear steps. He creates an environment where my son feels understood and capable, which has translated into stronger performance under pressure.
We are incredibly grateful for his support during this critical GCSE period and would highly recommend him to any student who needs structured, high-level exam preparation delivered with clarity and professionalism.

Adrian P
We are incredibly grateful for Adrian’s support. From the very first session, he made a significant difference. My son came out saying, “So I’m not stupid,” which shows how powerful that first experience was. Adrian helped him understand in one session what he had struggled to grasp over the previous six months at school.
Since starting with Adrian, my son has moved from a grade 1 to a grade 4 in Maths within three months, with just one and a half hours of tutoring per week. That progress speaks for itself.
Adrian is structured, clear, and focused. He explains concepts in a way that builds both understanding and confidence. My son feels capable in his sessions and leaves feeling empowered rather than overwhelmed.
We are continuing with Adrian and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for effective, exam-focused maths support delivered with professionalism and consistency.

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.
