Ricarda M
My daughter has been using Ricarda for A Level German tuition for the past couple of months. My daughter's test grades have already gone up and her teacher has commented on the progress she has made over the last couple of months. Ricarda is very personable, reliable and responsive. She listens, and quickly understood the areas my daughter needs to work on. She is a great tutor and I'm very happy that I chose her to support my daughter. I would highly recommend Ricarda!

asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends a competitive independent school in Kensington. Can you find a tutor with relevant experience?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience supporting students from highly academic schools. You can view each tutor's full profile, including their educational background and teaching experience, to find someone who understands the standards and expectations your child is working towards.
We're aiming for Oxbridge or a Russell Group university like LSE. Can a tutor help with this?
Yes. We have tutors who are graduates from these top universities and specialise in entrance exam preparation and interview practice. They can provide invaluable insight into what admissions tutors are looking for and help your child build the skills and confidence needed for a successful application.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
Finding the right fit is the most important thing. We have a First Lesson Guarantee, so if you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do you ensure your tutors are high quality and safe to work with?
Your child's safety and success are our top priorities. We have a rigorous selection process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed by a member of our team and must pass a background check before they can teach on our platform.
How do I find the right online tutor for my child?
You can use our search filters to find tutors by subject, level, and price. Reading their profiles and reviews from other parents is a great way to get a feel for their approach. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs.
How much does online tutoring cost in Kensington?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. This transparency allows you to find an expert tutor that fits your family's budget.
How do online lessons work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. It's a secure and effective learning space that your child can access from any computer or tablet.
My child is bright but lacks confidence in a particular subject. How can a tutor help?
This is very common, and it's where one-to-one tutoring really shines. A tutor provides a safe, encouraging environment where your child can work at their own pace and ask questions without fear of judgement. This personalised support is fantastic for building confidence and self-belief.
How effective is online tutoring compared to in-person?
Online tutoring is highly effective and offers greater flexibility. With our interactive classroom and access to the best tutors across the UK, your child gets expert, tailored support. Plus, with over 4,100 reviews and a 4.6-star rating, you can see how much other parents value the experience.
Do you offer tutoring for subjects beyond the core curriculum?
Yes, we do! While we have experts in core subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. You can find support for everything from coding and learning Python to playing the guitar or speaking a new language.
How flexible are the lesson times?
Very flexible. You can arrange lesson times directly with your chosen tutor, making it easy to fit sessions around school, sports, and other commitments. There are no minimum bookings or contracts, so you can schedule lessons as and when your child needs them.
What kind of results can we expect?
While every child learns differently, our focus is on making real progress. 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and for GCSE students, we can help improve their results by up to two grades. Our goal is to help your child feel confident and achieve their personal best.
