asked questions

See all FAQs

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.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something like coding or a musical instrument?

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.
