Adeela N
I started lessons with Adeela in September because I’m resitting my a level economics and she has been incredibly helpful, she focuses on chains of analysis and evaluations which are essentially needed to go from lower to higher marks, which I struggled with during sixth form. She knows plenty of real world applications that she brings in when we discuss a topic and doing exam questions, I appreciate the fact that she focuses on exam questions a lot and she takes time to mark my answers and offers loads feedback:)

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the 11+ for schools like Merchant Taylors'. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have specific experience helping children with the entrance exams for grammar schools in the Sefton area. You can filter your search for tutors with 11+ expertise and even mention your target schools in your messages to them.
We're aiming for a place at the University of Liverpool. Can a tutor help with A-Level preparation?
Definitely. Securing a place at a competitive university requires strong A-Level grades. Our A-Level tutors can provide in-depth subject knowledge, help with exam technique, and build the confidence your child needs to achieve their goals and prepare a strong university application.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's a great question. We recommend watching tutors' introductory videos to get a feel for their personality. You can also read reviews from other parents and send messages to a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. Finding the right fit is key to a successful partnership.
What happens 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 much does online tutoring in Litherland cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically range from £15 to £40 per hour, depending on their experience and the subject level. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.
How do the online lessons actually 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. It's designed to be simple and engaging, allowing your child and their tutor to work together just as they would in person.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Sometimes, a lack of confidence is the biggest hurdle. A one-to-one tutor creates a safe, patient space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By celebrating small wins and breaking down tough topics, they help your child see that they *can* succeed.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors must have a valid DBS check and provide references. We also interview every single tutor to ensure they have the right skills and attitude to teach on our platform.
Is tutoring just for exams, or can my child learn other skills?
It's for so much more! While we have many tutors for academic subjects like Maths, English, and Science, you can also find experts to teach life-long skills like coding, playing the guitar, learning a new language, or even public speaking.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss progress. Many parents tell us they see a positive change not just in their child's schoolwork, but in their overall attitude to learning.
What subjects do you offer tutoring for?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects. From core subjects like Maths, English, and Science at all levels from primary to degree, to languages, humanities, and even music and coding. Whatever your child needs help with, you're likely to find a brilliant tutor for it.
How many lessons will my child need?
This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students have a few lessons to prepare for a specific exam, while others have regular weekly sessions to build their skills over time. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor, and there are no long-term contracts or commitments.
