Jack R
Very patient and very clear when explaining stuff. Doesn’t go too fast and really knows what he’s talking about. I knew basically nothing about python before I got him, now I’m much more confident with everything and am able to do some good coding on my own. Would definitely recommend if you’re interested in anything python related!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're aiming for a Torbay grammar school. Can I find a specialist 11+ tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have experience helping children build the specific skills and confidence needed for the Torbay grammar school entrance exams. You can filter your search to find tutors with this expertise.
My child hopes to study at Exeter or Plymouth. Can a tutor help with their A-Levels?
Definitely. We have a huge range of expert A-Level tutors who can provide targeted support to help your child achieve the top grades needed for competitive university courses. They can help with everything from understanding complex topics to perfecting exam technique.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child in Newton Abbot?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free before booking. This helps you get a feel for their teaching style and personality to make sure you find the perfect fit for your child.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level, so you can easily find a highly-rated tutor that fits your family's budget.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has an up-to-date DBS or background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right relationship is key to learning. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
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, making it easy for your child to collaborate with their tutor just as they would in person.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Sometimes all a child needs is a little one-to-one encouragement. A tutor provides a safe space to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong. By breaking down tricky subjects and celebrating small wins, they help your child feel capable and much more confident in class.
Is it only for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have tutors for every academic subject from primary school to degree level, we also have experts who can teach hobbies and life skills. Your child could learn anything from playing the guitar and coding in Python to learning a new language.
How long are the lessons and how often should they be?
Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find that one session a week is a great way to build momentum and see steady progress, but the frequency is completely up to you and can be arranged directly with your chosen tutor.
Can tutoring help my child if they're finding schoolwork too easy?
Yes. Tutoring isn't just for catching up; it's also for stretching and challenging bright students. A tutor can introduce your child to more advanced topics, helping to deepen their knowledge and keep them engaged and passionate about learning.
What happens if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
Life happens, we get it. You can easily cancel or reschedule a lesson through the platform. Tutors have their own cancellation policies, but most just ask for 24 hours' notice, giving you plenty of flexibility.
