Personalised Tutoring That Fits Your Family's Life

We believe the best learning happens when a tutor truly understands your child. That's why we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring they are not just subject experts, but also caring mentors. They take the time to learn how your child thinks and what they find difficult, creating a supportive partnership built on trust. Every online session is designed around your child's unique goals. If they're stuck on algebra, the lesson will focus on that. If they need to analyse quotes for a 'Macbeth' essay, their tutor will guide them through it. This focused attention means no time is wasted, and your child can make real, noticeable progress, which is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Finding the right support shouldn't add to your family's stress. With our online platform, you can connect with the best tutors from across the UK, all from the comfort of your Pontypridd home. Lessons can be scheduled at times that work for you, making it easy to fit confidence-boosting support around school, clubs, and family life.

Joseph M
Friendly, down-to-earth tutor who explains things clearly
Hi, I'm Joseph!I want you to have a genuine sense of what's going on---if you just blindly do practice problems, you'll get stuck the moment something looks different. I'll give you real understanding and make abstract ideas click.A session with me involves lots of discussion with questions going back and forth, so that you not only learn but actually connect with the material. Over a series of sessions, this approach makes ideas stick---not because you've memorised steps, but because you actually get how they fit into the bigger picture.I have a Master's and a PhD in Mathematics, which have given...

Italian is such a vibrant language, full of drama and passion and to learn it properly you also have to use your hands!!

I particularly enjoy teaching pronunciation and will repeat for as long as it takes to get the right sound! I have perfect fluency and understanding. I also enjoy teaching English and it shows in my lessons. They are fun and very helpful.My lessons can be tailored to your requirements....

* Book your child in for SUMMER BOOSTER sessions TODAY*- I have had a HUGE increase this year in last minute requests for support, even for the day before the exam...- Many of these young people have been worrying about their GCSEs and A Levels behind closed doors and parents have realised too late that they need support.- If your child is in secondary school or 6th form now and you have any doubt about their independent study skills please consider summer sessions.- I hear all too often that the young people I am working with do not have the skills in order to attempt independent study.

Friendly and helpful A-Level Maths and GCSE Science Tutor
I enjoy Mathematics greatly, having studied both Maths and Further Maths at A-Level, also while I was at sixth form I took part in working as a classroom assistant in Year 8 Maths lessons, which gave me valuable experience at teaching students. I took part in another programme which taught the elderly how to be computer literate, these two experiences have given me very different skills to utilise whilst teaching.In my experience as a one-on-one tutor I have usually found my best strategy is to utilise examples, both ones I work through myself and others I assist my students in working through,...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

How do I choose the right tutor for my child in Pontypridd?

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from over 4,100+ reviews from parents just like you. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute chat so you can get to know them and discuss your child's needs before booking a lesson.

Are the tutors actually based in Pontypridd?

Our tutors are online, which means your child can connect with the very best subject experts from across the UK, not just your local area. They have extensive experience with the UK curriculum, including qualifications studied in Wales, ensuring the support is perfectly matched to what your child is learning in school.

My child is thinking about applying to the University of South Wales. Can a tutor help with that?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience supporting students with their university applications, from writing personal statements to preparing for interviews. You can find tutors who are specialists in UCAS applications and specific degree subjects to give your child the best possible guidance.

How much does online tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, but you can find an expert tutor to fit your family's budget. Each tutor's price is clearly shown on their profile, and there are no hidden fees or contracts.

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

We know how important the right fit is for your child to feel comfortable and learn effectively. 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 the cost of your first session with a new tutor.

How do you make sure the tutors are safe?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor must pass a background check before they can join our platform. We also interview them and verify their ID and qualifications. In fact, we only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.

My child's confidence is low. How can a tutor help with that?

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 shy to ask in class. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, tutors help them build self-belief alongside their subject knowledge.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer tutoring for a huge range of skills and hobbies beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or master a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their passions.

How do online lessons work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for an engaging lesson. It includes a two-way video stream, an interactive whiteboard for solving problems together, and a tool for sharing documents. It’s simple to use and designed to feel just like sitting next to a tutor.

How long are the lessons and how often should they be?

Lessons are typically an hour long, which gives enough time to cover a topic properly without your child losing focus. Most families find a weekly session works best, but you can arrange a schedule that suits your child's needs and your family's routine directly with your tutor.

Can I track my child's progress?

Yes. You can message your tutor at any time to get updates, and they will often provide feedback after each session. This open communication helps you stay involved and see the positive impact tutoring is having on your child's confidence and grades.

How quickly can we get started?

You can get started very quickly. Simply search for your subject, find a tutor you like, and send them a message to arrange your first lesson. Many tutors can start within a day or two, providing support for your child right when they need it.
