Paul has only just started tutoring my daughter—but already she feels confident he will build her knowledge in film and help her become more equipped to answer exam questions.

I am so happy to have found Dario! There are some people in the world who are born to teach and make learning fun, Dario is absolutely one of them. I am greatly enjoying my lessons and my Italian partner can see the progress I have made already. Within just a few lessons, I have managed to build up my vocabulary and confidence! Dario is encouraging and friendly, and we always have a good laugh which makes my lessons memorable. He quickly assessed my current level and has taken the time to tailor lessons to this, making sure that I am challenged, but not overwhelmed. I cannot recommend language lessons with Dario enough! I am very grateful for his support and look forward to many more hours learning Italian with him. If you decide to book with Dario, you won’t be disappointed!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE grades needed for Coleg y Cymoedd?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in GCSE preparation and have a deep understanding of the exam boards. They can work with your child to target specific areas of weakness, improve their exam technique, and build their confidence to help them secure the grades they need for their chosen A-Level courses.
My child hopes to go to the University of South Wales or Cardiff University. Can tutoring help with that?
Definitely. Strong A-Level grades are crucial for applications to competitive universities. Our A-Level tutors can provide in-depth subject knowledge and support to help your child achieve the grades they need, strengthening their UCAS application and preparing them for the step up to university-level study.
How do I pick the right tutor for my child in Porth?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ask any questions and make sure they’re the perfect fit for your child.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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.
How do you make sure tutors are safe to work with children?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough vetting process, including identity checks and an enhanced DBS background check. We are very selective, and only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, but typically range from £25-£45 per hour. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so there are no hidden costs. You only pay for the lessons you book.
How does online tutoring work?
It’s simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
Can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits we see. A great tutor provides a safe and encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. This one-to-one attention often leads to a huge boost in self-belief that helps them in all areas of their life, not just school.
Do you only offer academic subjects like Maths and English?
While we have fantastic tutors for all core academic subjects from Primary to A-Level, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. You can find tutors for modern languages, musical instruments like guitar and piano, and even practical skills like coding.
How long will it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our one-to-one approach is designed to get results. Tutors can quickly identify and address any learning gaps. In fact, 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade, and many parents tell us they see a positive change in their child's confidence after just a few sessions.
What if we need to reschedule a lesson?
We understand that life can be unpredictable. You can easily reschedule or cancel a lesson with your tutor. We just ask that you give them at least 12 hours' notice. You can manage all your bookings directly from your Tutorful account.
How many lessons will my child need?
This really depends on your child's individual needs and goals. Some students have a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others have regular weekly lessons throughout the school year. You can discuss this with your chosen tutor, and there's no commitment to book a certain number of lessons.
