Yes, it definitely can. Getting into competitive universities often means achieving strong A-Level grades and having a clear understanding of your chosen subject. A tutor can provide the personalised support to help you achieve those top grades, develop deeper subject knowledge, and even help you refine your study skills, giving you a real edge for your university applications.

Is Tutorful just for academic subjects, or can I learn other skills too?

While we have fantastic tutors for all school subjects like Maths, English, and Science, you can also find tutors for a huge range of other skills! This includes things like learning to code in Python, playing the guitar, developing your creative writing, or even improving your public speaking. It's all about what *you* want to learn.

What if I don't get along with my first tutor?

We want you to find the perfect match. 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 do I pick my tutor?

It’s really straightforward! You can browse through profiles of our expert online tutors in Sheffield and beyond.

You can also send them a message to chat before booking your first lesson to make sure they're the right fit for you.

Tutors set their own hourly rates, so prices can vary. You’ll see each tutor’s rate clearly displayed on their profile. This means you can find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.

How can a tutor help me build confidence?

A great tutor acts like a personal guide, helping you understand tricky topics at your own pace without judgment. By breaking down complex ideas, celebrating your small victories, and giving you a safe space to ask any question, they help you feel more capable and secure in your abilities. This boost in confidence often translates directly into better performance and a more positive attitude towards learning.

What subjects can I get help with?

You can find support for almost any subject you can think of! From core GCSE and A-Level subjects like Maths, English Literature (think Shakespeare or poetry analysis), Physics, Chemistry, and Biology, to languages, humanities, and even university-level topics. Just search for what you need!

How does online tutoring work?

It's super simple. You’ll connect with your tutor in our online classroom, which has a virtual whiteboard, video chat, and document sharing. You can see and hear each other, write notes, work through problems together, and even save your lessons to review later. All you need is a computer, tablet, or smartphone and an internet connection.

Are the tutors qualified and safe?

Absolutely. We take tutor vetting very seriously. We only accept about 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring we pick the very best. All our tutors are background-checked and vetted for their expertise and teaching ability, so you can feel completely safe and supported during your lessons.
