More Than Just Grades: Preparing Your Child for What's Next

Strong grades in core subjects like Maths, English, and the Sciences are the foundation for any ambitious path, whether that's to a top independent school or a Russell Group university. But it's how your child uses that knowledge that truly matters. A great tutor helps them go deeper – moving from simply solving algebra problems to explaining their reasoning, or from memorising quotes from 'Macbeth' to developing a unique and compelling analysis. These are the critical thinking and communication skills that make personal statements memorable and interviews successful, opening doors to their chosen future.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is applying to competitive London universities like Imperial and UCL. Can a tutor help with more than just the syllabus?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with university applications. They can help your child develop critical thinking skills, practise interview techniques, and learn how to articulate their ideas compellingly – all crucial for standing out to top institutions like Imperial College London or UCL.

We're considering independent schools in the London area. Can we find a tutor experienced with specific entrance exams?

Yes, you can. Many of our tutors specialise in preparing children for 11+ and other independent school entrance exams. You can check their profiles for specific experience and even message them beforehand to discuss your child's needs and the schools you're targeting.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know that the right personal connection is key to successful learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

Is tutoring only for core academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?

We offer a wide range of subjects and skills! Beyond Maths or English, you can find expert tutors for everything from learning to code in Python, mastering a musical instrument like the guitar, or even public speaking to build confidence for interviews.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking. It's all about finding the best fit for your child's personality and learning style.

How much does online tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your budget.

How does the online classroom work?

Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for drawing and sharing notes, and a document editor. It's a secure and engaging space where your child can learn one-to-one with their tutor.

Are the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All of our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, which includes identity and background checks, before they can join our platform. We're trusted by thousands of parents, with a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews.

How can online tutoring help my child build confidence?

One-to-one tutoring provides a safe, supportive space where your child can ask questions without feeling self-conscious. When a tutor tailors lessons to their specific needs and celebrates their progress, it can make a huge difference to their self-belief, both in and out of the classroom.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in depth without losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor to find what works best for your child.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. You can communicate directly with your child's tutor through our messaging system. They can provide regular feedback on your child's progress, discuss areas they are working on, and answer any questions you might have about their learning.

Do I have to commit to a block of lessons?

Not at all. We offer a pay-as-you-go system, so you have complete flexibility. You can book lessons week by week or arrange a regular slot with your tutor – whatever works best for your family's schedule and your child's needs.
