Megan G
Over the past few months, Megan has been an incredible support for my son during what has been a very challenging period for him. Her patience and encouragement has made a huge difference not only to his English and maths skills but also to his confidence and attitude towards learning.
Megan has adapted each lesson to his needs, finding creative ways to help him stay engaged. It’s clear she puts a tremendous amount of thought and effort into her teaching.
I am truly grateful for everything and cannot recommend Megan highly enough.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the Kent 11+. Can I find a tutor with specific experience?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have specific experience with the Kent Test. You can check their profiles for details and message them beforehand to discuss your child's needs and how they can help build their confidence for the exam.
We're hoping for a place at a grammar school in Sevenoaks or Tonbridge. Can a tutor help with this goal?
Definitely. Our tutors can provide targeted support to help your child prepare for the entrance exams for specific grammar schools. They can focus on the key subjects and skills required, helping your child feel as ready as possible on the day.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Is tutoring just for core school subjects?
Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for Maths, English, and Science, we also have experts who can teach your child skills like coding, learning a musical instrument like the guitar, or even a new language. There's a huge range to explore.
How do I choose the best tutor for my child?
You can easily find the right online tutor by using our search filters. You can look for tutors based on subject, level (like 11+ or GCSE), price, and availability. Reading their profiles and reviews from other parents is a great way to get a feel for their teaching style.
How much do tutors in Otford cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you'll know the cost upfront with no hidden fees.
How can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence?
Building confidence is at the heart of what our tutors do. A one-to-one setting allows them to create a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement. Celebrating small wins and breaking down tricky topics helps rebuild their self-belief.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, including identity and background checks, before they can join Tutorful. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply.
Can tutoring help with GCSEs specifically?
Yes, it can make a big difference. Tutors can provide focused revision, help with exam technique, and work through past papers. In fact, online tutoring can help improve a child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, which we find is perfect for covering a topic in detail without losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. All you need is a computer or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom has all the tools needed, like an interactive whiteboard, so you don't need any special software.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to arrange a time, and you could have your first lesson booked within 24 hours. Join over 200,000 happy students who have found their perfect tutor with us.
