Dr Brian has helped my daughter so much with Chemistry A Level. In just a few months she has become a lot more confident in some of the hardest topics including Organics and Energy Changes. Dr Brian explained all the tricky concepts to my daughter and wasted no time doing lots of exam practice questions, slowly building up the difficulty. He is an excellent tutor and I can’t recommend him enough!

Tom L
A gifted, brilliant and engaging tutor with huge knowledge and interest in the world. Tom has an extraordinary energy that maintains my daughters interest (quite a hard task) and challenges her to think. He knows GCSEs inside out, and her grades have improved already but, as a parent, I mainly love their off topic discussions. Tom is a deeply good human being.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE grades needed for Nelson and Colne College?
Absolutely. This is a very common goal for families we support in Nelson. Our tutors are experienced in helping students secure the specific GCSE grades required for competitive A-Level programmes. They can focus on exam technique, revision strategies, and strengthening weaker topic areas to give your child the best possible chance of success.
My child hopes to go to a university like UCLan or Manchester. Can tutoring help with that goal?
Yes, building a strong academic foundation at GCSE and A-Level is the first step towards getting into great regional universities. A tutor can help your child master their subjects, develop strong study habits, and build the confidence they need to aim high for their future.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, check their qualifications, experience, and watch introductory videos. You can also read reviews from other parents just like you. Plus, you can message tutors for free before booking to make sure they're the perfect match for your child's personality and learning needs.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have a 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.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and we interview every single one. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from a trusted expert.
Can tutoring help if my child has lost their confidence in a subject?
Definitely. This is one of the most powerful benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can admit they don't understand something without feeling embarrassed. Rebuilding that confidence is often the first step to better grades.
How much do tutors in Nelson cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £20 to £45 per hour. The price is based on their experience and the subject level. You can see the price clearly on each tutor's profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget with no hidden costs.
Is it just for core subjects like Maths and English, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we have fantastic tutors for GCSE and A-Level subjects, your child can also learn practical skills like coding or a new language, get support with a university degree, or even take up a new hobby like playing the guitar.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space to share documents. It’s easy for your child to use and allows them to work collaboratively with their tutor, just as they would in person.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You might want more lessons in the run-up to an exam, or fewer during school holidays. You can discuss the best plan with your child's tutor.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long. We find this is the ideal length of time for your child to get focused, make progress on a topic, and ask questions without getting tired.
What results can I expect for my child?
We're proud that 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade. For GCSEs, this can often be a two-grade improvement. More than that, you can expect to see your child's confidence grow as they become a more independent and motivated learner.
