Inspiring tutor
Hi, I’m Alice and I have taught secondary history for 16 years and led a department for 10 years. My ethos of the classroom (and department) has always been ‘enjoy and achieve’, and this is what I always aim for when I am teaching in any capacity. I am very good at breaking subject knowledge down for students and helping them to remember the core knowledge. I use a lot of strategies to check for understanding using red, Amber green, questioning, thumbs up/down.One of my other strengths is that I understand what exam boards look for in exam answers.

Amirhossein S
Amir has been and continues to be fantastic.In a very short period of time (weeks) he has taken my son up a grade/grade and a half in both maths and computer science. We shall most definitely be continuing with Amir up to my son’s A levels and now fully expect him to achieve As in both. My son even said the other day that if he had had Amir a year ago, he could have even studied further maths. The confidence Amir has given my son back is quite something. I am very grateful to Amir, he is a very great tutor.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
How have students rated the quality of tuition in Merley?
Absolutely. This is one of the main reasons parents come to us. Our tutors can provide targeted support to help your child master their subjects, improve their exam technique, and build their confidence. We know how much pressure there is around GCSEs, and our data shows that our tutors can help improve results by up to two grades, giving your child a much stronger university application.
My child is aiming for a place at a competitive local school. Can we find a specialist tutor?
Yes, you can. Many of our tutors have experience helping students prepare for entrance exams and interviews for selective schools, including grammar schools and top local academies. You can use our search filters to find tutors who specialise in this area and even message them beforehand to discuss your child's specific goals.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child in West Hallem?
You can start by searching for your child's subject and level. You'll see a list of qualified tutors, each with a detailed profile including their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. We recommend watching their introductory video and messaging a few to find the person you feel is the best fit for your child's personality and learning style.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is 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 I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed and vetted by our team, and we only accept 1 in 8 who apply. All tutors must have a valid DBS check or equivalent background check before they can teach on the platform, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, but typically range from £20-£45 per hour. Tutors set their own rates, and you can see the price clearly on their profile, so you can find an experienced tutor who 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 sharing work, and a document editor. Your child and their tutor can talk, share resources, and work through problems together in real-time, just as they would in person.
Can tutoring help my child if they're feeling anxious about exams?
Yes, very much so. A great tutor builds confidence as well as knowledge. By working one-to-one, they can help your child understand topics they've been struggling with, practise exam technique, and feel much more prepared and less anxious when they walk into the exam hall.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something like coding or a musical instrument?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core school curriculum. You can find expert tutors for skills like coding, learning a new language, playing an instrument like the guitar or piano, and even public speaking. It's a great way for your child to explore new interests.
Are the lessons flexible?
Completely. You're not tied into any contracts. You can book lessons week-by-week or in blocks, whatever works best for your family's schedule. This flexibility is one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most lessons are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor, as some parents prefer 90-minute sessions for older students or shorter 30- or 45-minute lessons for younger children.
Are tutors familiar with the curriculum my child is studying?
Yes. Our tutors are experts in the UK curriculum, including GCSE and A-Level specifications for exam boards like AQA, Edexcel, and OCR. Many are qualified teachers or experienced examiners, so they know exactly what's required to help your child succeed.
