They can focus on the key subjects and topics your child needs to master to meet the entry requirements for competitive A-Level courses at East Durham College.
My child is hoping to apply to Durham or Newcastle University. Can a tutor support this?
Yes, we have many tutors who specialise in university preparation. They can help your child not only achieve the A-Level grades required for prestigious universities like Durham and Newcastle but also provide support with personal statements and entrance exam preparation.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can read detailed profiles for each tutor, which include their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. Many tutors also offer a short introductory video. We recommend messaging a few to discuss your child's specific needs before booking to find the perfect match.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single UK-based tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS background check. We also interview every tutor and verify their ID and qualifications, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident about their exams?
Confidence is key. A one-to-one tutor creates a safe, supportive space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, tutors help your child build self-belief, which makes a huge difference in how they approach their exams.

Not at all! While we have experts in all academic subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also offer tutoring for a wide range of other skills.

All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is easy to use and works directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor, as they can often be flexible to suit your child's needs.
How do I pay for lessons?
Paying is simple and secure. Once a lesson is complete, your payment is automatically processed through our platform using the card details you provide. You'll only ever be charged after a lesson has taken place.
Can I track my child's progress?
Yes. You and your child can communicate with the tutor through our messaging system to get feedback. After each lesson, your tutor can share notes on what was covered and discuss the plan for future sessions, so you're always kept in the loop.
