Jack R
Very patient and very clear when explaining stuff. Doesn’t go too fast and really knows what he’s talking about. I knew basically nothing about python before I got him, now I’m much more confident with everything and am able to do some good coding on my own. Would definitely recommend if you’re interested in anything python related!

Chinazaekpele J
She is absolutely amazing!! I am a mature student studying A levels; moving from a design background into science is a huge leap, Chinaze has been nothing but supportive and helpful. Her knowledge is impressive and she’s extremely flexible with lessons. Every time I’ve had a session with her, I’ve left feeling very confident. I’m that annoying student who is always asking why and she always has an answer, even if it’s not relevant to the subject. Really grateful to have found her :)

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at Launceston College and wants to apply to competitive universities like Exeter. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students strengthen their university applications. They can focus on achieving the specific A-Level grades needed for competitive courses, offer guidance on personal statements, and build the subject confidence that helps students stand out.
We're in a rural area. Does online tutoring really provide the same quality as face-to-face?
Yes, and in many ways, it offers more. Online tutoring gives your child access to the very best tutors from across the UK, not just those who live nearby. Our interactive online classroom has tools like a whiteboard that make learning engaging and effective, and many parents find it a safer and more convenient option for their family.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free before booking. Look for someone whose teaching style and experience match your child's needs and personality. It's all about finding a great partnership.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right fit is crucial. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect 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 know the tutors are safe to work with my child?
Your child's safety is our absolute priority. Every tutor must pass an identity check and have a valid DBS background check. We interview every tutor, and only 1 in 8 who apply are accepted onto our platform.
Can tutoring help my child if they lack confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits we see. The one-to-one attention from a supportive tutor creates a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of being judged. Celebrating small wins in each lesson is a fantastic way to rebuild their self-belief.
Is it just for core school subjects, or can you help with other skills?
It's for so much more! While we have thousands of tutors for Maths, English, and Science, we also have experts who can teach everything from coding and musical instruments like the guitar, to modern foreign languages. It's a great way for your child to explore a new passion or build a new skill.
How much do tutors in Launceston cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from £15. The price is based on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter by price on our search page to find a great tutor who fits your budget.
How long are the lessons and how often should they be?
Lessons are typically an hour long. Most families find a weekly session works best to build momentum and see consistent progress, but the frequency is completely up to you and can be arranged directly with your tutor.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Your child and their tutor meet in our online classroom, which has video chat, a shared whiteboard, and a space to upload documents. A typical session might involve reviewing homework, working through tricky topics, and practising exam-style questions.
Do I have to commit to a block of lessons?
Not at all. We operate on a pay-as-you-go basis, so there are no long-term commitments or contracts. You can book as many or as few lessons as your child needs.
How does Tutorful compare to other tutoring options?
We're proud to be trusted by over 200,000 students, with a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews. We focus on providing a huge choice of high-quality, vetted tutors on a safe, easy-to-use platform that gives you complete flexibility.
