Building a Competitive Edge for London Universities
It’s easy to see some subjects as just 'extras', but top universities are looking for students who can think critically and connect ideas. A great tutor helps your child see how the skills learned in subjects like General Studies – such as analysing different viewpoints or building a balanced argument – are the exact skills they need to excel in their core A-Levels and write a standout personal statement. This broader knowledge doesn't just tick a box; it creates a more thoughtful, well-rounded applicant, which is exactly what admissions tutors at competitive London universities want to see.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is hoping to apply to King's or LSE. Can a tutor help strengthen their application?
Absolutely. Our tutors, many of whom are graduates from top universities themselves, can provide specific support for UCAS applications. They can help your child articulate their knowledge in their personal statement, practise interview techniques, and build the critical thinking skills that admissions tutors at institutions like King's and LSE look for.
We live in South-East London and are aiming for a competitive grammar school. Can you help?
Yes. Many of our tutors have specific experience with entrance exams, including the 11+. You can use our search filters to find tutors who specialise in grammar school preparation and can help your child build the skills and confidence they need.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for success. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can read detailed profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents to get a real feel for each tutor. You can also message them before booking to discuss your child's needs and ensure they're a perfect match.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an identity and background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?
One-to-one attention from an expert can make a huge difference. Tutors create a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they help build your child's self-belief step by step.
How much does online tutoring in South-East London cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is custom-built for one-to-one learning. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools. Your child and their tutor can work through problems together in real-time, just as they would in person.
Is tutoring only for core academic subjects?
Not at all. While we cover all academic subjects from Primary to A-Level, we also have tutors who can help with vital skills like university interview preparation, public speaking, and even learning a musical instrument. It's all about supporting your child's overall development.
Can I see what other parents think?
Of course. We're proud to have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 customer reviews. You can read reviews from other parents on each tutor's profile to see how they have helped other children achieve their goals.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most lessons are one hour long, as this is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor to find what works best for your child's concentration and schedule.
How quickly can we start lessons?
You can get started very quickly. Many tutors are able to offer a lesson within a few days. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to arrange a time, and book your first session directly through their profile.
