I think having a discussion and taking things through is the best way to learn for a lot of subjects and would therefore try to incorporate this into every task where possible.I also used to do different t...

Cedra J
Miss Cedra has been tutoring my y10 daughter for a few weeks now and she is finding the support super helpful. My daughter had a retest and said she found answering the 8 mark questions much easier and felt a lot more confident in some of the areas she was struggling. Would definitely recommend Miss Cedra as she has a wide knowledge on subjects and is patient and attentive.

Dan B
I’ve been having online saxophone lessons with Dan, and I honestly couldn’t recommend him enough. He’s been super supportive, flexible around my schedule, and always makes the lessons feel relaxed but focused. I can feel myself making positive progress, and each session builds on the last in a really clear way. I always look forward to our lessons and come away feeling motivated and confident. If you’re thinking about learning saxophone, Dan’s a great choice.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends Dunfermline High. Can a tutor help them specifically with the Scottish curriculum for National 5s and Highers?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are specialists in the SQA curriculum. They can provide targeted support for National 5 and Higher exams, helping your child build the knowledge and exam technique needed to aim for the grades required by universities like Edinburgh, Glasgow, and St Andrews.
We live in Oakley. Can a tutor help my child with their application and personal statement for universities like the University of Stirling?
Yes, we have many tutors who are experienced in university applications. They can guide your child through the UCAS process, helping them craft a compelling personal statement that showcases their strengths and passion for their chosen subject, giving them a great advantage.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right fit is crucial for learning. 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.
Is it just for core school subjects, or can you help with other skills?
We cover a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum! Whether your child wants to learn a musical instrument like the guitar, get ahead with coding in Python, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their interests.
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 on their profile. You can also message them before booking to discuss your child's needs and ensure they're a perfect match.
How much does online tutoring in Oakley 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 find an excellent tutor that fits your family's budget.

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough background check. We are very selective, and only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How often should my child have lessons?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Most families start with one lesson a week, but you can arrange more frequent sessions during busy exam periods or less frequent ones for general support. You can discuss the best plan with your chosen tutor.
Can tutoring really improve my child's grades?
