Mu daughter has recently started A-level maths lessons with Charlie. He is an excellent teacher. The lessons are well structured, with a strong focus on exam-style questions, which is exactly what is needed at this level. He also provides clear, constructive feedback after each session, which has been very helpful. We would highly recommend him to other A-level students.

Nial D
Nial tutored my son in computer science in the run up to his GCSE exam, due to a pretty useless teacher at school. They worked together once a week for maybe 3 months. My son was predicted a 1,2 or 3 by his teacher and with Nial's help he got a 9! Highly recommended. Never a moan from my son about a tutor session with Nial. They got on well and it was worth every single penny!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to go to Coleg Cambria. Can a tutor help them get the specific GCSE grades they need?
Absolutely. Many parents in Shotton use Tutorful for this exact reason. Our tutors are experienced in helping students target the specific grades needed for entry into local colleges and sixth forms, focusing on key subjects like Maths and English to ensure your child meets the requirements.
We're thinking about universities like Chester or Wrexham in the future. Can tutoring now help with that?
Yes, building a strong academic foundation at GCSE is the first and most important step towards a successful university application. A tutor can help your child secure the grades they need to access the right A-Level courses, which in turn strengthens their future application to universities like Chester and Wrexham.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications. We recommend sending messages to a few tutors to see who feels like the best fit before booking your first session.
How much does online tutoring in Shotton cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, but you can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. All pricing is clearly shown on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden costs.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right personal 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 does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
Can a tutor help if my child has lost their confidence?
Definitely. This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Rebuilding that self-belief is often the first step to seeing their grades improve.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is key. We find that regular weekly sessions often lead to the best results, and our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we cover all academic subjects from primary school to university level, we also have expert tutors who can teach practical skills like coding, playing the guitar, or learning a new language for fun.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour-long session per week is ideal for making steady progress. However, you can arrange lessons as often as you like – you might want to increase the frequency in the run-up to exams, for example. It's completely flexible.
What happens in a typical tutoring session?
The tutor will tailor the session to your child's needs. It might start with a quick review of what they covered in school that week, move on to tackling a specific topic they're stuck on, and end with some practice questions to build confidence for an upcoming test.
