Grace C
Caring and supportive Tutor
When your child tells you that s/he is finding Maths difficult or “I can’t do the questions in Maths today”, be assured that s/he is not alone. As a class teacher, we regularly hear such a concern from children or parents.In my experience, working in small groups or giving students individualised coaching can have huge impact on children’s ability and confidence in Maths. A bespoke programme to address misconceptions, work at the children’s pace and teach a systematic approach to solving problems can help children experience and enjoy success in Maths, and build on the progress they have already a...

Maria R
Enthusiastic Spanish Tutor for A-Level and below.
I would make a great Spanish tutor for students of all backgrounds because I am a Native Spanish speaker and have great interpersonal skills. I gain a lot of satisfaction from helping students achieve their goals whether it be studying for exams or to brush up on their conversation skills for a Holiday.I would tailor my approach and lesson plan to the needs of the student. If for example they were studying GCSE Spanish I would use past papers and exercises as resources and examples of the type of activities and questions they can expect. I would then offer feedback on the answers they have given...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to get into a competitive sixth form in Leicestershire. Can a tutor help with this?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in preparing students for specific entry requirements, including building the strong GCSE results needed for competitive sixth forms. They can help your child focus on key subjects, improve exam technique, and build the confidence to perform their best.

Can a tutor help my child with their A-Levels for an application to the University of Leicester or Loughborough?

Definitely. Our A-Level tutors, many of whom are graduates from top Russell Group universities themselves, can provide targeted support to help your child secure the grades they need. They can assist with everything from understanding complex topics to honing essay writing and exam preparation skills for their university application.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend sending messages to a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding someone your child connects with.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That’s why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, 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 top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced background check. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How much do tutors in Leicestershire cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience, subject, and level of study. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

Can tutoring really help my child's confidence?

Yes. One-to-one attention from a supportive tutor creates a safe space for your child to ask questions they might be afraid to ask in class. Celebrating small wins and overcoming challenges together is a fantastic way to build their self-esteem and a love for learning.

How do the online lessons work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, making sessions engaging and effective. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we have thousands of tutors for core subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. You can find expert tutors for everything from coding and Python to learning the guitar or a new language.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that a one-hour lesson per week is a great starting point. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be adjusted based on your child's goals, whether they need ongoing support or are preparing for a specific exam.

What happens in the first lesson?

The first session is usually a chance for the tutor to get to know your child, understand their learning style, and discuss their goals with you. It's a great opportunity to see if it's the right fit before you commit to more lessons.

How effective is online tutoring?

It's incredibly effective. With access to the best tutors across the UK, not just your local area, and tools like lesson recordings for revision, online tutoring offers a level of flexibility and support that helps children thrive. 90% of our 200,000+ students improve by at least one grade.
