These qualifications are essential for securing places on the most sought-after courses at post-16 colleges and for making a strong university application to places like Plymouth or Exeter. The skills they build, from mastering algebra to analysing a passage from 'An Inspector Calls', develop the critical thinking and problem-solving abilities that top employers and apprenticeship schemes look for.

Making learning memorable
* Book your child in for SUMMER BOOSTER sessions TODAY*- I have had a HUGE increase this year in last minute requests for support, even for the day before the exam...- Many of these young people have been worrying about their GCSEs and A Levels behind closed doors and parents have realised too late that they need support.- If your child is in secondary school or 6th form now and you have any doubt about their independent study skills please consider summer sessions.- I hear all too often that the young people I am working with do not have the skills in order to attempt independent study.

Qualified, friendly, experienced Economics A-Level tutor
I have a wealth of experience as a qualified teacher and have been teaching A-level economics for 30 years across comprehensive schools, sixth-form colleges and independent schools. I was Head of Business and Economics at a large college and have been an examiner for both AQA and Edexcel.

My tutoring approach is to be as student centred as possible, the student should feel in control of their learning...

Siobhan R
My son has been tutoring with Siobhan for quite a while now and all i can say is how fantastic she has been in guiding him through his mathematics journey!
Her patience, ways of explaining and using visuals to help him understand, the time she takes to get to know how he learns and checking to ensure he fully grasps a concept, are all very commendable!
His confidence has increased and he looks forward to his lessons knowing that Siobhan will be there to support him in a subject that previously he was very anxious about.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to a college in Plymouth or Truro. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. A tutor can help your child build a strong academic foundation by focusing on the specific GCSE subjects and grades they need for a competitive application. They can close any knowledge gaps and build their confidence, ensuring their results truly reflect their ability.
We're worried our child's results won't compare to students from bigger towns. How can tutoring help?
This is a common concern, and where one-to-one tutoring really helps. A tutor provides personalised attention that's often not possible in a busy classroom. This targeted support helps your child master their subjects and develop the confidence to show what they know in exams, levelling the playing field.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
Finding the perfect match is easy. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check qualifications on each tutor's profile. We always recommend sending a message to a few tutors first to chat about your child's goals before booking a lesson.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. 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.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our priority. Every tutor on the platform undergoes a background check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How much does online tutoring cost in Looe?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically start from £15 per hour. Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can easily filter your search by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools. Your child and their tutor can talk, write, and collaborate just as they would in person.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Our one-to-one lessons provide a safe and encouraging space for your child to ask questions without feeling self-conscious. Celebrating small wins and overcoming challenges with a supportive tutor is a fantastic way to build their self-esteem and a love for learning.
Do you only offer academic subjects like Maths and English?
While we have thousands of tutors for core academic subjects, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get help with coding, or practise a new language, we have an expert tutor who can help.
How often should my child have lessons?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Most families choose to have a one-hour lesson each week to provide consistent support, but you can arrange sessions more or less frequently depending on what works best for you.
Can I track my child's progress?
Of course. The best way is to have a quick chat with the tutor, who will be happy to give you feedback on how your child is getting on. You can easily message them through the platform at any time.
I've found a tutor I like. What's the next step?
That's great! Simply send them a message to introduce your child and discuss their needs. From there, you can agree on a time for the first lesson and book it directly through their profile. It's that easy to get started.
