Teresa has been teaching my teen child for several months now. We see significant progress in literacy and vocabulary. My child is neurodivergent, and Teresa has been great in her approach; she manages to combine (1) the topics that interest my child to develop vocabulary and writing/speaking skills and (2) the essential grammar topics and UK GCSE curriculum which my child will need.

We are incredibly grateful for your support. When my daughter began her first semester, first year accounting modules, she was completely lost. Your clear explanations, patience, and ability to simplify complex concepts helped her gain confidence quickly.
Thanks to your exceptional teaching, she went from struggling to achieving a distinction in a very short time. We truly appreciate the difference you’ve made.

Francis J
Francis has been supporting my son with GCSE Physics and has made a real difference to both his understanding and confidence. Concepts that previously felt difficult are now explained clearly and patiently, and lessons are always well structured and engaging.
Francis is friendly, approachable, and puts my son at ease straight away, which has really helped build confidence and motivation. My son feels much more confident going into his GCSE preparation, and it’s been great to see his progress and growing interest in the subject.I also love that after each lesson I receive a clear summary from Francis outlining what they’ve covered, which is really helpful.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
The local schools in Oakham set a very high bar. Can a tutor help my child keep up and feel confident?
Absolutely. It can be tough when the academic pace is high. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe space for your child to ask questions they might not feel comfortable asking in class. They can go over topics until things click, helping to build both their subject knowledge and their self-belief.
My child is aiming for a top university like Cambridge or Loughborough. Can a tutor help with this?
Yes, our tutors are brilliant at helping students build the strong academic foundation needed for competitive university applications. They can help your child master their A-Level subjects and develop the deep understanding required to achieve the top grades that universities like Cambridge look for.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child in Oakham?
It’s easy to find the perfect match. You can filter tutors by subject and level, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking to ensure you find someone you're all happy with.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We have a strict selection process, and only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted. Every tutor undergoes an identity and background check, and we personally interview them to ensure they have the right experience and passion for teaching.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect match, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much do online tutors in Oakham cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices typically start from £20 per hour, and there are no hidden fees or contracts. You are always in control of what you spend.
How does online tutoring actually work?
All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has everything your child needs, including video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for them to learn from the comfort of home.
Can tutoring help my child if they've lost their confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor will create a positive and encouraging environment where your child feels supported. Celebrating small wins and patiently working through challenges can make a huge difference to their confidence in a subject.
Is it just for core academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we have thousands of tutors for core subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. You can find expert tutors for everything from learning the guitar and coding in Python to modern languages and university application support.
How long will my child need a tutor for?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Some students have a tutor for a full academic year, while others just need a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam or to grasp a tricky topic. It's completely flexible.
What makes Tutorful different from other tutoring companies?
