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 aiming for a competitive university like Bath or Bristol. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students strengthen their applications for top universities. They can focus on achieving the required A-Level grades, provide support with personal statements, and help build the solid academic foundation needed to stand out.
We live in Melksham. How can an online tutor help my child compete with students from bigger cities?
Online tutoring levels the playing field. It gives your child access to the very best tutors from across the UK, not just those who live locally. This means they can get specialist support tailored to their exact needs, helping them build the skills and confidence to compete with any applicant, no matter where they're from.
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 messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. It's all about finding a great personality match to help your child feel comfortable and motivated.
How much do online tutors in Melksham cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically range from £25 to £55, depending on their experience and subject level. You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.
How can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We are extremely selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed, and we carry out thorough background checks, including an enhanced DBS check, to ensure they are suitable to work with children.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. 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 online lessons actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes and working through problems, and a facility for sharing documents. It’s a simple, effective, and engaging way for your child to learn.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
The one-to-one setting provides a safe space for your child to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in a busy classroom. When a tutor focuses entirely on their needs, celebrates their progress, and helps them overcome challenges, their self-belief and confidence grow naturally.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
It's for much more than just schoolwork! We have expert tutors who can teach a huge range of skills and hobbies, from learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to mastering coding languages like Python. It's a great way to support your child's passions.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that a one-hour lesson each week works best, as it provides consistency and keeps momentum going. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange lessons as often as you and your child's tutor feel is needed.
What kind of results can we expect?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our students see fantastic results. We're proud that 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade, and for those studying for GCSEs, we can help them improve by up to two grades.
How do I book our first session?
It’s simple. Once you've found a tutor you like, you can send them a message to check their availability and discuss your child's goals. When you're ready, you can book and pay for your first session securely through their profile.
