I couldn't rate Leah high enough. She really got on with my daughter and taught her at the pace required. My daughter passed her 11+ and Leah played a massive part in that :)

Callum A
Our son had a 15-minute introductory session with Callum focusing specifically on Transformations in Coordinate Geometry. We were genuinely impressed.
Callum explained rotations, reflections and translations in a clear, logical way, checked our son’s reasoning, and quickly identified the gaps in his understanding.
We’re now booking full sessions and feel confident that we’ve chosen a truly excellent maths tutor.

Rai S
Incredible! It’s fair to say that science was never one of my sons favourite subjects. My son has only had a few lessons with Rai so far but we are making it regular to support his GCSE exams.
Rai’s sessions are full of energy and my son has so much more confidence and loves the way Rai explains things. He has already learnt so much!
I would absolutely recommend!

I had my first session with Amie today and she was exceptionally helpful. I do both law and criminology a level and while my session was for criminology, I am now also considering law a level sessions. Amie is very fast at responding and really helped me to understand concepts in depth.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is worried about their A-level choices for a UCAS application. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our A-level tutors have extensive experience helping students navigate the UCAS process. They can provide valuable advice on subject choices, help your child understand what top universities look for, and build the subject-specific confidence they need to write a compelling personal statement.
We're aiming for a competitive London university. Can we find a tutor with experience in this?
Yes. You can view each tutor's profile to see their educational background, including which university they attended. Many of our tutors are graduates from Russell Group and other top London universities, and they can offer brilliant, first-hand insight into the application process and academic standards.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can filter tutors by subject and level, then read their profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking to ensure you find the right fit.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure your child feels comfortable and supported. 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 you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor undergoes a rigorous selection process, including an interview and a background check. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How much does online tutoring in Lewisham cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, starting from around £20 per hour. Each tutor sets their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profile, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. Tutors can break down tricky topics and celebrate small wins, which helps build self-esteem and a more positive approach to learning.
Is tutoring just for core academic subjects?
Not at all! While we cover all school subjects from Primary to A-level, we also have expert tutors who can teach practical skills like coding, learning a musical instrument like the guitar, or even a new language for fun. There's something for everyone.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that a one-hour lesson each week is ideal for steady progress. However, it's completely flexible. You might want more frequent sessions in the run-up to exams, or less frequent lessons for a general confidence boost. You can discuss the best plan with your tutor.
How quickly will we see results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our focus is on building a strong foundation for long-term success. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and engagement after just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
How do I know what my child is learning?
Communication is key. You can message your tutor at any time through the platform to ask for updates on your child's progress. Tutors are always happy to share what they've been working on in lessons and what the plan is for the coming weeks.
