Strong foundations in Maths, English, and reasoning aren't just for one exam; they unlock success across all their GCSE and A-Level subjects. Mastering verbal reasoning helps them analyse quotes in Macbeth, while confidence in Maths is essential for tackling Physics and Chemistry. We focus on building these core skills so your child is prepared not just for their next test, but for the exciting challenges ahead.

Jessica is so incredibly patient with my son. She breaks down lessons as small as possible in order for my son to understand her easily. Though my son is always very distracted, Jessica is able to work around it and consistently quiz him in order for him to remember and retain information. She is a hard worker and incredibly skilled. She’s a wonderful tutor! I really recommend her.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the 11+ for Carre's Grammar School. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have experience helping children with the specific requirements for local grammar schools like Carre's and Kesteven and Sleaford High School. You can check their profiles for details on their 11+ experience and even message them to ask about their approach.
We're thinking ahead to university. Can a tutor help my child aim for places like Lincoln or Nottingham?
Definitely. Our tutors can provide support right through from GCSEs and A-Levels to university applications. Whether your child needs help securing the grades for a competitive course or guidance with their personal statement, you can find experienced tutors to support their ambitions.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's a really personal choice. We recommend watching tutors' introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also read reviews from other parents, which you'll find on every profile. Don't hesitate to send a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking.
How much do online tutors in Sleaford cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically range from £20 to £50 depending on their experience and the subject level. You can see the price clearly on each tutor's profile, helping you find an expert who fits your budget.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space 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 one of our tutors has passed a background check before they can teach on our platform. We also manually verify their ID and qualifications, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, there are no silly questions. A tutor can patiently go over topics until your child feels secure, celebrating small wins along the way. This personalised encouragement is often the key to helping a child believe in their own abilities.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring for a huge range of skills beyond the school curriculum! Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding in Python, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find a friendly, expert tutor to help them explore their interests.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. 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 quickly will we see results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the goal of one-to-one tutoring is to make progress from the very first session. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and engagement with a subject after just a few lessons.
Can I track my child's progress?
Yes. We encourage our tutors to provide feedback after each session, which you can review. It’s also a great idea to have a quick chat with the tutor before or after a lesson to stay updated on what they're covering and how your child is getting on.
What happens if we need to reschedule a lesson?
Life happens, and we understand that! You can easily reschedule or cancel a lesson through the platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, as per our cancellation policy.
