Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive school like Highgate School. Can we find a tutor with 11+ experience?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in entrance exam preparation, including the 11+. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in helping children prepare for the assessments used by top independent and grammar schools in and around London.

We're focused on top A-Level grades for a Russell Group university like UCL. Can a tutor help?

Yes, this is a very common goal for families we support. Our A-Level tutors are subject specialists who can help your child master complex topics, perfect their exam technique, and build the confidence needed to aim for the highest grades. Many have experience helping students with their UCAS applications for top universities.

What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?

We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

You can start by filtering tutors by subject and level. We recommend reading their profiles, watching their introductory videos, and checking reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and goals to ensure they are a good fit.

How much does online tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience, subject, and level of study. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an excellent tutor who fits within your budget.

How do you ensure tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. We have a strict vetting process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor must pass an interview, have their ID verified, and undergo a background check before they can teach on our platform.

How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence?

Confidence is key to learning. A one-to-one tutor can create a safe, encouraging environment where your child feels comfortable asking questions they might be hesitant to ask in a busy classroom. Celebrating small wins and patiently working through challenges helps rebuild their self-belief.

Is tutoring just for academic subjects like Maths or English?

Not at all! While core academic subjects are very popular, we have tutors for a huge range of skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get ahead with coding in Python, or even learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their interests.

What happens in a typical online lesson?

Our online classroom is interactive and engaging. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for solving problems together, and a way to share documents and resources. Lessons are tailored to your child, focusing on the specific areas where they need the most support.

How long are the tutoring sessions?

The standard lesson length is one hour, which most students find is the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child.

How often should my child have a lesson?

We generally recommend one session per week per subject to build momentum and see consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely flexible and can be arranged directly with your tutor to fit your family's schedule and your child's learning needs.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. We encourage open communication between parents and tutors. You can message your tutor at any time to ask for updates, and they will often provide feedback on how your child is getting on, what they've covered, and what the plan is for future sessions.
