My child hopes to go to the University of Exeter. Can a tutor support their A-Levels?
Yes, we have a huge range of expert A-Level tutors who can help your child secure the grades they need for top universities like Exeter. They can provide in-depth subject knowledge, help with exam technique, and offer support right through to their final exams.
How do I find the right tutor in Sidmouth for my child?
Because our tutors are all online, you're not limited to who's available locally in Sidmouth. You can browse tutors from across the UK, filtering by subject, level, and availability. You can also read reviews from other parents to help you choose the perfect fit for your child.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial. 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 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, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check and has had their ID and references verified by our specialist team. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, starting from around £20 per hour. Tutors set their own rates, and you can easily filter by price on our search page to find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?
Confidence is key. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. Tutors provide constant encouragement and celebrate small wins, helping your child see their own progress and believe in their abilities.

Of course. Each tutor has a detailed profile where you can see their qualifications, experience, and reviews from other parents and students. With over 4,100 customer reviews and a 4.6-star rating, you can read honest feedback to help you make your choice.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or music theory?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core school curriculum. You can find expert tutors for everything from coding languages like Python and web development, to learning a musical instrument, music theory, or even public speaking.
How long are the lessons and how often should they be?
Lessons are typically one hour long, and most students have one session per week. However, this is completely flexible and something you can discuss directly with your tutor. You can arrange a schedule that best suits your child's needs and your family's routine.
What happens if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
We understand that life happens! You can easily manage your schedule through the platform. Our cancellation policy simply requires you to give your tutor at least 12 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule a lesson without being charged.
