Chinazaekpele J
She is absolutely amazing!! I am a mature student studying A levels; moving from a design background into science is a huge leap, Chinaze has been nothing but supportive and helpful. Her knowledge is impressive and she’s extremely flexible with lessons. Every time I’ve had a session with her, I’ve left feeling very confident. I’m that annoying student who is always asking why and she always has an answer, even if it’s not relevant to the subject. Really grateful to have found her :)

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child goes to Selston High School. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE grades needed for colleges in Ashfield or Mansfield?
Absolutely. This is a very common goal for parents we work with. Our tutors can provide targeted GCSE support in subjects like Maths, English, and Science to help your child strengthen their understanding, improve their exam technique, and build the confidence they need to achieve the grades required for their chosen post-16 courses.
We're hoping our child can eventually go to the University of Nottingham or Nottingham Trent. Can tutoring help with that long-term goal?
Yes, it's a great way to build a strong academic foundation. By securing excellent GCSEs and A-Levels now, your child will be in a much stronger position when it comes to applying for competitive university courses. Our tutors can help them develop the deep subject knowledge and independent study skills that top universities look for.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right fit is crucial for building confidence. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect 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.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
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 before booking to discuss your child's specific needs. Since it's all online, you have access to the best tutors from across the UK, not just those who live locally.
My child's confidence has taken a knock. Can a tutor really help with that?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. In a supportive environment, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A great tutor celebrates small wins and helps them see their own progress, which can make a huge difference to their self-esteem.
How do you make sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has to go through a rigorous application process. We interview them and verify their ID and qualifications. In fact, we only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
Is it just for core school subjects, or can you help with other skills?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum! Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get ahead with coding in Python, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find experienced tutors on our platform.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience, subject, and level. Each tutor sets their own hourly rate, which is clearly displayed on their profile. This transparency allows you to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.
How do the online lessons work?
Our lessons take place in a purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a simple, effective, and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of your own home.
How often should my child have a lesson?
This is completely flexible and depends on your child's needs. Many families find a weekly one-hour session works well for consistent progress, but you can arrange lessons more or less frequently. You can discuss the best approach with your chosen tutor.
Will tutoring actually improve my child's grades?
We see fantastic results. In fact, 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade. The personalised attention helps to clear up misunderstandings and build a solid foundation of knowledge, which translates into better performance in exams.
How many people have used Tutorful?
You're in good company! We've helped over 200,000 students achieve their goals. We're proud to have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews from parents and students just like you.
