Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

With the competition in Penarth, can a tutor help my child secure the GCSE grades needed for their first-choice A-Levels?

Absolutely. This is one of the main reasons parents in Penarth come to us. Our tutors can create a tailored plan to target the specific grades your child needs for competitive A-Level subjects, helping them feel confident and prepared to meet the entry requirements.

My child has their heart set on Cardiff University. Can a tutor help with that?

Yes. Many of our tutors are graduates from Russell Group universities, including Cardiff. They can provide fantastic support, not just with subject knowledge for A-Levels, but also with study skills and university application advice to help your child build a strong profile.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch short introductory videos to get a feel for their teaching style. We also encourage you to send free messages to a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking a lesson.

What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have a 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.

How much do online tutors in Penarth cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. There are no hidden fees or long-term commitments, giving you complete flexibility.

Is tutoring just for core subjects like Maths and English?

Not at all! While we have amazing tutors for core academic subjects, we also offer support for a huge range of skills and hobbies. You can find expert tutors for everything from learning the guitar and coding in Python to preparing for the 11+ or mastering a new language.

How do online lessons actually work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from home.

Can a tutor really help improve my child's confidence?

Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits we see. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy about in class. This personalised attention helps them overcome hurdles and see that they are capable, which is a huge confidence booster.

Are all the tutors' backgrounds checked?

Yes, the safety of our students is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a background check. We are also very selective, only accepting 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can discuss what works best for your child's goals and your family's schedule directly with your chosen tutor.

What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?

Life is busy, we get it. Our platform makes it easy to manage your schedule. You can cancel or reschedule a lesson with your tutor, as long as you give them at least 12 hours' notice.

How do I pay for lessons?

Payments are handled securely and simply through the platform. You add your card details to your account, and you're only charged 24 hours after each completed lesson. You never have to deal with cash or awkward payment conversations.
