Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a tutor help my child with their A-Levels for a Durham or Newcastle University application?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are specialists in preparing students for top university applications. They can provide expert subject knowledge, help your child master complex A-Level topics, and perfect their exam technique to help them secure the grades they need.

My child needs strong GCSEs to get into a competitive sixth form in the North East. Can you help?

Yes, this is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. Our tutors are brilliant at building confidence and closing knowledge gaps for GCSEs. In fact, we can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to two grades, giving them the best possible chance of securing a place at their chosen sixth form.

How do I pick the right tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ask any questions and make sure they're a great fit for your child's personality and learning style.

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

We know how important the right fit is. That's 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 much does online tutoring cost in the North East?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, so prices can vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can easily filter by price when you search to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

Sometimes a lack of confidence is the biggest barrier to learning. One-to-one tutoring provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. This personalised support helps them feel understood and capable, which works wonders for their self-esteem.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is interviewed and has their ID and background checked before they can teach on our platform. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply.

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, so your child and their tutor can work together just as they would in person. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

Is it just for core subjects like Maths and English, or can you help with other skills?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While Maths, English, and Science are very popular, we can also help your child learn a new language, master a musical instrument like the guitar, or even learn practical skills like coding.

How long is a typical lesson?

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 to find what works best for your child's schedule and concentration.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is getting on. You can also message them at any time to discuss progress. Seeing your child's confidence grow and their school results improve is often the clearest sign of success.

Can I book a one-off lesson just for exam revision?

Of course. There are no contracts or long-term commitments. You can book as many or as few lessons as you need, which makes it perfect for a last-minute revision session before a big exam or for ongoing weekly support.
