How General Studies Can Strengthen Your Child's University Application
It's a common concern, but far from being a 'soft' option, General Studies helps your child develop the exact skills that prestigious universities like King's College London and Imperial are looking for. The subject teaches them how to analyse information, build a compelling argument, and think critically about the world around them. These are skills that are essential for writing a powerful personal statement, excelling in interviews, and succeeding in any degree course. It complements their other subjects by teaching them not just what to learn, but how to think.

Lawrence C
After trying several tutors for A-Level Chemistry, I can say for certain Lawrence has been my favourite as he is patient and helps you understand the topic in full to further consolidate knowledge. I’ve had him for months and would definitely say he’s helped me gain more confidence in chemistry. Would recommend him to anyone trying to improve their Chemistry grades.

Flora I
We are absolutely delighted with the English tuition Flora is providing for our son in preparation for his GCSEs. He is really enjoying her lessons and already finding them extremely helpful. Flora listens carefully, offers clear and thoughtful advice, and focuses on strengthening his knowledge in a way that feels supportive and encouraging. Each lesson is very well structured, which has really helped build his confidence.
Although he has only had a few lessons so far, he already feels they will make a real difference and help him focus on exactly what he needs to prioritise for his exams. This is exactly what we hoped Flora would deliver, and we couldn’t be happier with the start she has made.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a competitive London university like King's or Imperial. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are graduates from top universities and have extensive experience in helping students with their UCAS applications, personal statements, and interview techniques. They can provide specific guidance to help your child's application stand out.
We're in Norwood and concerned about competition for local schools. Can tutoring give my child an edge?
Yes, it can. A tutor provides focused, one-to-one attention that isn't always possible in a busy classroom. By building on your child's strengths and addressing any gaps in their knowledge, a tutor can boost both their skills and their confidence, which is a great advantage.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free before booking. We recommend finding someone your child will connect with, who has experience in the specific area you need help with. You can filter by subject, level, and price to find the perfect match.
What if we don't click with the 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 much does online tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £25 to £45 per hour depending on their experience and the subject level. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.
Are your tutors properly checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all of them must have a valid DBS background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to join us.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
Is tutoring just for academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we cover all core academic subjects from Primary to A-Level, we also have expert tutors for music lessons like guitar and piano, languages, coding, and professional skills.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, tutors help students see their own progress, which is a fantastic confidence booster.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard session length is one hour, which most families find works best. However, you can discuss your needs directly with your tutor, as many are happy to arrange longer or shorter sessions if required.
Can we get help with UCAS applications and personal statements?
Yes, definitely. We have many tutors who specialise in university admissions support. They can help your child structure their personal statement, prepare for interviews, and navigate the entire UCAS process with confidence.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Tutors will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss how things are going. Many parents tell us they see a noticeable improvement in their child's confidence and class participation very quickly.
