Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We live in South Woodham Ferrers and are aiming for a grammar school place in Chelmsford. Can we find a tutor who specialises in the 11+?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are specialists in 11+ preparation. You can use the filters on our search page to find tutors with specific experience in entrance exams. You can also read their profiles and parent reviews to see how they’ve helped other children succeed.

Are tutors familiar with the specific requirements for schools like KEGS or Chelmsford County High School?

Many tutors have direct experience preparing children for specific grammar school entrance exams, including those set by the Consortium of Selective Schools in Essex (CSSE). We recommend messaging a few potential tutors to ask about their familiarity with your target schools to find the perfect fit.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

It's all about finding the right fit. Watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and use our messaging system to chat with them before booking. A quick introductory call can help you see if their personality and teaching style are what your child needs.

How much do online tutors in South Woodham Ferrers cost?

Our tutors set their own prices based on their experience, typically ranging from £25 to £60 per hour. You can filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, so your child and their tutor can work together just as they would in person. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

How can a tutor help my child if they're feeling anxious about exams?

A great tutor does more than just teach a subject; they act as a mentor. By providing patient, one-to-one encouragement in a relaxed environment, they can help your child understand tricky topics, build self-belief, and develop strategies to manage exam nerves.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and they must all have a valid DBS check. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the very best.

What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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.

Is tutoring only for academic subjects like the 11+, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer tutoring for a huge range of interests beyond the core school subjects. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or practise a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their passions.

My child will be starting their GCSEs soon. Can we find help for that too?

Of course. We have thousands of expert tutors for every subject at GCSE and A-Level. A tutor can provide consistent support throughout these crucial years, helping your child stay on track and feel confident heading into their exams.

How long are the sessions and how often should my child have them?

Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find that one session per week is ideal for consistent progress, but you are completely free to arrange a schedule that works for you and your child directly with your tutor.
