Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child has their heart set on Carmel College. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE grades they need?

Absolutely. Many parents in Prescot share that goal. Our tutors specialise in helping students secure the top GCSE grades needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on specific exam board requirements, strengthen weak areas, and build the confidence your child needs to perform their best in their exams.

We live in Prescot. Are the tutors local?

Because all our tutoring is online, you get access to the best tutors from across the UK, not just those who live locally. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists, ensuring you can find the perfect match for your child’s personality, subject, and learning style, right from your home in Prescot.

How do I choose the best tutor for my child?

It’s simple! You can filter tutors by subject and level, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few to chat about your child's goals before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.

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

We know how important the right fit is. 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 can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. We personally interview every tutor, and only 1 in 8 who apply are accepted. All tutors must have a valid DBS check or equivalent background check, and we verify their ID and qualifications to ensure they are experts in their field.

How much do online tutors cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, but you can easily see each tutor's hourly rate on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete control over what you spend.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's just like being in the same room! Lessons take place in our online classroom, which has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.

Can a tutor help my child with confidence, not just their grades?

Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. This personal support often leads to a big boost in self-belief that helps them in all their subjects.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one hour-long session per week is ideal for steady progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange more frequent lessons in the run-up to exams or less frequent sessions for general support, whatever works best for your child and your schedule.

What happens in a typical tutoring session?

A session is usually focused on what your child needs most. It might start with reviewing a tricky piece of homework, then move on to explaining a new concept using the interactive whiteboard, and finish with working through some practice exam questions together.

How long does it take to see an improvement?

Every child is different, but many parents tell us they see a change in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. Consistent weekly lessons are the best way to achieve real, lasting improvements in their grades and understanding.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or an instrument?

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