Opening Doors to Their First-Choice College and Beyond
Strong GCSEs are the foundation for your child's future choices. Whether it's Maths, English or Science, these subjects develop the critical thinking and analytical skills that prestigious colleges and Russell Group universities look for. Mastering algebra isn't just about passing a test; it's about building the problem-solving skills needed for A-Levels. Learning to analyse a quote from 'Macbeth' teaches them how to form a compelling argument, a skill that will serve them well in any field. We focus on helping them secure the grades that open those doors.

Mustafa A
So far, I have had four lessons with Mustafa, and I have found him to be really supportive and thorough. In my first lesson, he took the time to identify my strengths and weaknesses in GCSE Chemistry so that he could prepare future lessons to the topics I was least confident in.
Throughout our lessons, we have worked through each topic carefully, making sure I fully understand the content before moving on. I also asked if we could go through my Chemistry mock exam questions in an upcoming lesson, and he was very happy to do so, which made me feel really supported. He always finishes lessons with exam questions, which has helped build my confidence and exam technique. Mustafa has also discussed revision techniques with me, which I’ve found very helpful when studying independently.
If there is any content I don’t understand, he quizzes me and explains it clearly until I feel confident. As someone who isn’t always confident in my answers, I now feel much more comfortable asking questions and learning from mistakes. I look forward to continuing my lessons with Mustafa. Thank you.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is set on Hills Road or Long Road. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE grades they need?
Absolutely. This is a common goal for families we support in the Royston area. Our tutors are experienced in helping students aim for top grades. They can identify any knowledge gaps, build exam technique, and boost your child's confidence to help them perform their best and secure a place at their first-choice sixth form.
We live in Royston. How does online tutoring work for us?
Online tutoring offers the best of both worlds. You get access to the UK's top tutors, not just those who live locally, all from the comfort of your home. Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, so you don't have to worry about travel. It's a convenient and effective way to fit expert support into your family's schedule.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their experience and qualifications. We recommend messaging a few to find someone your child will get on with. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute chat to see if they're a good fit before you book a lesson.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed by our team and must pass a background check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right connection is key to learning. 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 much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, but typically range from £25 to £45 per hour. Tutors set their own rates, and you can easily filter by price to find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Can a tutor help if my child has lost their confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe and encouraging space for your child to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild your child's self-belief.
Is it just for core academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we have thousands of tutors for Maths, English, and Science, we also offer support in hundreds of other areas. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding in Python, or learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help.
How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should they be?
Most lessons are one hour long, which gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without being overwhelming. We usually recommend one session per week to build momentum, but you can arrange a frequency that works best for your child and your family with your tutor.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Our online classroom is designed for learning. It has an interactive whiteboard, file sharing, and video chat. A tutor might work through a tricky algebra problem on the whiteboard, review an essay draft together, or use past papers to practice exam technique, all tailored to your child's needs.
Do we need any special equipment for online tutoring?
Not at all. All you need is a laptop or desktop computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no software to download.
How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?
You can get started very quickly. Many parents find and book their ideal tutor on the same day. Simply search for your subject, message a few tutors you like the look of, and you can arrange your first lesson for a time that suits you.
