Christina V
We have had a great experience with Christina. We engaged her to support our youngest to get through the English assessment to be able to join the same bi-lingual French/English school here in France as her elder sisters (as otherwise, as a native English speaker, she would have been pushed into a French-only local college). Over the months her confidence grew and grew; she successfully passed assessment, and is now at the same college as her siblings. Many thanks to Christina for her contributions, it was everything that we hoped for when we set off on the tutorful journey !

asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to New College Pontefract. Can we find a tutor experienced with the entry requirements?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are very familiar with the requirements for popular and competitive sixth forms. You can check tutors' profiles for their experience and even send them a message before booking to discuss your child's specific goals and how they can help them achieve the necessary GCSE grades.
Can a tutor help my child with A-Levels to get into a university like Leeds or York?
Yes, many of our tutors are A-Level specialists and have experience helping students secure places at top universities, including those in the Russell Group like Leeds and York. They can provide in-depth subject knowledge and help your child develop the independent study skills needed for success at university.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect match, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Is it just for core academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for Maths, English, and Science, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. From learning a musical instrument like the guitar to coding in Python or even preparing for a university entrance exam, you can find an expert to help your child explore their interests.
How do I pick the right tutor for my child?
You can use our search filters to narrow down tutors by subject, level, and price. Every tutor has a detailed profile where you can read about their experience, watch an introductory video, and see reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors directly to ask questions before you book a lesson.
Are the 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 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
We live in Knottingley, but does the tutor have to be local?
Not at all! That's the great thing about online tutoring. You can choose the absolute best tutor for your child from across the UK, without being limited to who lives nearby. This gives you access to a much wider pool of subject specialists and experienced educators.
How much does online tutoring cost?
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. There are no hidden fees, so you can easily find an excellent tutor that fits your family's budget.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe space for your child to ask questions without the fear of being wrong in front of a class. Tutors celebrate small wins and adapt their teaching style to your child's personality, helping them to feel more capable and positive about their learning.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is simple to use and has everything your child needs for a great lesson. It includes live video chat, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a tool for sharing documents and past papers. All lessons are also recorded so your child can review them anytime.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss your needs with your tutor, as many are flexible and can arrange longer or shorter sessions if needed.
How do I pay for lessons?
Paying for lessons is simple and secure. You add your payment details to your account, and after each lesson is completed, we'll automatically process the payment. You can easily track all your lessons and payments from your dashboard.
