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!

Christopher J
My daughter had only a brief time with Christopher but he was very reliable. He was very thorough in the topics we requested and obviously knew economics in detail. He expanded on subjects when required but kept it simple to understand- thank you so much for your time
Would recommend Christopher!

My daughter has had Katie for nearly a term now and she is loving the sessions. She is inspired by Katies teaching of A-level maths and always looks forward to them. Katie is reliable, friendly, responsive to messages and makes her lessons great fun as well as informative, getting my daughter A-level exam ready. We are really glad we found her and would recommend. Her teaching has already had an impact on my daughter's test results and confidence.

Chinazaekpele J
She is absolutely amazing!! I am a mature student studying A levels; moving from a design background into science is a huge leap, Chinaze has been nothing but supportive and helpful. Her knowledge is impressive and she’s extremely flexible with lessons. Every time I’ve had a session with her, I’ve left feeling very confident. I’m that annoying student who is always asking why and she always has an answer, even if it’s not relevant to the subject. Really grateful to have found her :)

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a competitive A-Level course at Riverside College. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students secure places on competitive courses. They can focus on strengthening your child's understanding of key GCSE topics, improving their exam technique, and building the confidence they need to achieve the required grades for Sixth Form entry at places like Riverside College or Oaklands Academy.
We're worried about the step up to A-Levels and getting into a Russell Group university. Can you help with that?
Yes, that's a very common goal for families we support. We have many A-Level specialists, including university lecturers and examiners, who are experts in their subjects. They can provide the in-depth support your child needs to master complex A-Level content and develop the independent thinking skills that Russell Group universities look for.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
Finding the right fit is the most important thing, which is why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect match for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications and experience. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's needs. It's all about finding someone your child will feel comfortable learning with.
How much does online tutoring in Oaklands cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, but typically range from £25 to £50 per hour. Tutors set their own rates, and you can easily filter by price on our website to find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Are 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 a valid DBS background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can a tutor help my child if they lack confidence?
Confidence is key. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help them see their own ability, which often has a fantastic knock-on effect in the school classroom.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is simple to use and has everything your child needs for a great lesson. It includes a two-way video call, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a tool for sharing documents. All they need is a computer or tablet and an internet connection.
Is it just for core school subjects like Maths and English?
Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for all academic subjects from Primary to A-Level, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. You can find expert tutors for learning a musical instrument like the guitar, mastering a programming language like Python, or even preparing for a driving theory test.
Can tutoring help with GCSEs specifically?
Yes, our tutors are brilliant at preparing students for GCSEs. They can help your child get to grips with the syllabus, perfect their exam technique, and manage revision effectively. In fact, targeted support at this stage can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
How long is a typical lesson and how often should we have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long. The frequency is completely up to you and what best suits your child's needs. Many families start with one session a week, but you can schedule more during busy exam periods or less often for general subject support. It’s completely flexible.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback, and you can chat with them directly through our messaging system. You'll also see your child's confidence grow as they start to understand topics they previously found difficult. Many parents tell us they see a positive change in their child's attitude towards learning.
