Nick S
Creative teacher
As a teacher I enjoy helping my students discover more about the beautiful web of relationships that make up Earth; from its core to the outer reaches of its atmosphere (and everything and everybody in between). This web still holds many mysteries so there’s plenty for us still to be curious about.I believe that curiosity and independence are crucial. And ultimately, if I’m successful at my job, they won’t need me. It was John Holt who said “Intelligence is not the measure of how much we know how to do, but of how we behave when we don’t know what to do.”I help my students believe in their abili...

Noah F
Experienced tutor
Hi, I’m Noah Csillag! Across eleven GCSEs I scored nine different 8s and 9s, with a grade 9 in English Language. I then went on to achieve an A* in A level English Literature with a total mark of 156/160. And I’m now studying at one of the top Russell Group universities in the country. More importantly, I’ve helped over 40 different students get through GCSE English and reach that benchmark needed for future education and future opportunities. I’m not just a university student, though. I spent a full academic year working in a leading UK grammar school. This experience has allowed me to develop...

Jack R
Very patient and very clear when explaining stuff. Doesn’t go too fast and really knows what he’s talking about. I knew basically nothing about python before I got him, now I’m much more confident with everything and am able to do some good coding on my own. Would definitely recommend if you’re interested in anything python related!

My daughter had only a brief time with Christopher but he was very reliable. He was very thorough in the topics we requested and obviously knew economics in detail. He expanded on subjects when required but kept it simple to understand- thank you so much for your time
Would recommend Christopher!

My daughter has had Katie for nearly a term now and she is loving the sessions. She is inspired by Katies teaching of A-level maths and always looks forward to them. Katie is reliable, friendly, responsive to messages and makes her lessons great fun as well as informative, getting my daughter A-level exam ready. We are really glad we found her and would recommend. Her teaching has already had an impact on my daughter's test results and confidence.

Chinazaekpele J
She is absolutely amazing!! I am a mature student studying A levels; moving from a design background into science is a huge leap, Chinaze has been nothing but supportive and helpful. Her knowledge is impressive and she’s extremely flexible with lessons. Every time I’ve had a session with her, I’ve left feeling very confident. I’m that annoying student who is always asking why and she always has an answer, even if it’s not relevant to the subject. Really grateful to have found her :)

My child is preparing for the 11-Plus (Kent Test). Can I find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are highly experienced in preparing children for the 11-Plus, including the specific format of the Kent Test. You can filter for tutors with this expertise and read reviews from other parents to find the perfect match for your child.
We're aiming for a place at a school like The Judd School or a Tunbridge Wells grammar. Can a tutor help?
Yes. We have tutors who are very familiar with the entrance requirements and exam styles for the top grammar schools in the Kent area. They can provide targeted support to help your child feel confident and prepared for their assessments.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child in Southborough?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications and experience. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. This helps ensure you find someone who is a great fit for their personality and learning style.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, but start from around £15-£25 per hour. Tutors set their own rates, and you can easily filter by price to find an expert who fits your budget.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It’s simple to use and allows your child to learn from the comfort of home.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one attention from a friendly, expert tutor creates a safe space for your child to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, tutors help your child see their own progress, which is a huge confidence booster.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you have the perfect match. 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 are your tutors vetted?
We take safety and quality very seriously. We interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8 who apply. All our tutors are background-checked and we verify their ID to ensure your child is in safe, professional hands.

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! You can find expert tutors for skills like coding, learning the guitar, public speaking, and much more. It's a great way for your child to explore new hobbies and interests.
How many lessons will my child need?
This is completely flexible and depends on your child's goals. Some parents book a few sessions to prepare for an exam, while others prefer regular weekly lessons to provide consistent support. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
Is there a contract or commitment?
No, there are no contracts or hidden fees. You simply pay as you go for the lessons you book. You can stop at any time, giving you complete flexibility.
Can I track my child's progress?
Yes. The best way to track progress is by speaking with your tutor. They will be happy to give you regular feedback on how your child is doing, what they've been working on, and the plan for future lessons.
