My son who is in year 8 was really struggling with French so I set about finding a kind, calm and effective tutor to bolster his confidence and to enjoy learning a language. Very happy to say we found just this with Louise. My son enjoys his lessons and is really learning the fundamentals much better than school have taught him!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for Cardinal Newman or Runshaw College. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE grades they need?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students secure the top GCSE grades needed for competitive colleges. They can focus on specific subjects, work on exam technique, and build your child's confidence to help them meet those high entry requirements. In fact, we can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
We're hoping for a place at Lancaster or Manchester University. Can a tutor provide A-Level support?
Yes. We have a huge range of experienced A-Level tutors who are specialists in their subjects. They can provide the in-depth knowledge and guidance your child needs to achieve the grades required for entry into top universities, including those in the North West and beyond.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child in Preston?
It's simple to find a great match. You can filter tutors by subject, level, and price. Every tutor has a detailed profile with a video, student reviews, and their qualifications, so you can get a real sense of their personality and teaching style before you even book a lesson.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and professional?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We have a rigorous selection process and accept only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is background-checked and interviewed by our team to ensure they are not only subject experts but also passionate and professional educators.
How much do online tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £20 to £50 per hour depending on their experience and the subject level. You can easily filter by price on our site to find an excellent tutor who fits your family's budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's just like face-to-face tutoring, but more convenient. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
My child's confidence is low. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a supportive and encouraging environment where your child can build confidence at their own pace. Celebrating small wins and overcoming challenges together makes a huge difference to how they feel about their studies.
What if we don't like the first tutor we try?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first 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.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We believe in learning for life, not just for exams. Alongside core academic subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we have fantastic tutors who can teach hundreds of other skills, from coding languages like Python to playing a musical instrument or learning a new language.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Most tutoring sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Many of our tutors can offer a lesson within a few days. Simply send a message to a few tutors you like the look of, and you can arrange your first session directly with them.
What makes Tutorful different from other platforms?
