Jorge F
Experienced Spanish and Portuguese tutor.
Hello I am Jorge. I am originally Portuguese with Spanish roots and I love to both teach and learn. I've studied Spanish up to University and I've lived in the UK for more than eight years. I've tutored some pupils in the local community, helped them in Spanish with good results. Portuguese is my first language and I am ready to help anyone reach their targets. Both Portuguese and Spanish are very similar languages which are derived from Latin. For an English speaking student it can be very hard to comprehend the languages at times. My approach to teaching pupils is by finding an easy and simple...

Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Ifrah I
I have never used a private tutor before but my 15 year old daughter has started taking additional weekly Nat 5 Chemistry lessons with Ifrah and she has been incredibly patient with her.
She checks in with her in relation to what she feels she needs to work on and takes time to understand her learning style, making her feel comfortable and relaxed.
The lessons are going really well and my daughter’s confidence is growing through this additional learning. Thanks Ifrah!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is finding the jump to Highers difficult. Can a tutor help with the Scottish curriculum?
Definitely. We have many tutors who are experts in the Scottish curriculum, including National 5s and Highers. They understand the specific requirements of the SQA and can provide targeted support to help your child bridge the gap and build confidence in their S5 and S6 years.
Can a tutor help my child with their application to the University of the West of Scotland (UWS)?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students with their UCAS applications, including personal statements. They can provide guidance on what universities like UWS look for, helping your child present their skills and knowledge in the best possible way.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the right fit for your child. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the best tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and what other parents say about them. You can also message tutors before booking to ask questions and make sure they're a good match for your child's personality and learning style. With a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews, you can feel confident you're making a great choice.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which is designed specifically for one-to-one learning. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
How much does online tutoring cost in Paisley?
Our tutors set their own prices, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you just pay for the lessons you book.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced background check. We are very selective, only accepting 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
Is it just for core school subjects like Maths and English?
Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for all academic subjects, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. You can find tutors for modern languages, musical instruments like guitar, and even practical skills like coding.
Can a tutor help my child build confidence?
This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe space where your child feels comfortable asking questions they might be too shy to ask in class. This personalised attention and encouragement often leads to a huge boost in self-belief.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most lessons are one hour long. We find this is the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor if you feel your child would benefit from it.
How often should my child have lessons?
Most families find that one session per week is ideal for consistent progress. However, the schedule is completely flexible. You might want more frequent lessons in the run-up to an exam, or less frequent sessions for general support. It's entirely up to you and what works best for your child.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
Life happens, and we understand that. You can easily cancel or reschedule a lesson through the platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice. You can find the full details in our cancellation policy.
