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 :)

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help me prepare for university applications to places like St Andrews or Glasgow?
Absolutely! Many of our tutors have experience helping students craft strong personal statements, prepare for entrance exams, and understand the requirements for top universities, including those you mentioned like St Andrews, Glasgow, or even the University of Stirling. They can guide you through the process to help you stand out.
I'm feeling the pressure from schools like Dunblane High and Wallace High. Can a tutor really help me compete?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors understand the high standards and curriculum requirements of schools across the UK, including those in the Stirling area. They can provide targeted support to strengthen your understanding, build your confidence, and help you achieve the National 5 and Higher results you need to excel and feel competitive.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can I learn other skills too?
It's for so much more! While we have amazing tutors for subjects like Maths, English, and Sciences, you can also find tutors for skills like coding, Python, learning a new language, or even playing a musical instrument like the guitar. If you have a skill you want to learn or improve, chances are we have a tutor for it.
What if I don't get along with my first tutor?
We want you to feel completely comfortable and confident with your tutor. That's why we offer a 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. We're here to help you find the perfect match.
How do I choose the right online tutor for me in Stirling?
It's easy! You can browse profiles of our tutors, filtering by subject, level (like National 5 or Higher), and even specific topics. Each profile shows their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other students. You can also send a message to a few different tutors to see who feels like the best fit before booking your first session.
How much does online tutoring usually cost?
Tutor prices vary depending on their experience and the subject level, but they typically start from around £20 per hour. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly displayed on their profile, so you'll always know what to expect before you book.
How can a tutor help me build my confidence?
Building confidence is a huge part of what our tutors do. By breaking down tricky topics, working at your pace, and celebrating every small success, they help you understand concepts more deeply. This mastery naturally leads to feeling more confident in class, during homework, and especially when it comes to exams.
What are online lessons like?
Online lessons are interactive and engaging! You'll connect with your tutor in our virtual classroom, which has a shared whiteboard, document sharing, and video chat. It's just like being in the same room, but with all your resources instantly available. You can even rewatch your lessons later to review anything.
How often should I have tutoring sessions?
That's completely up to you and your tutor to decide! Many students find that a weekly session helps them stay on track and build momentum. However, you might prefer more frequent sessions closer to exams, or less frequent if you just need help with specific assignments. Your tutor will work with your schedule.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your safety and learning experience are our top priorities. Every tutor on Tutorful goes through a rigorous vetting process. This includes identity checks, qualification verification, and enhanced background checks (PVG/DBS equivalent). We only accept the best – just 1 in 8 applicants – so you can feel completely secure.
What do I need for online tutoring?
You'll just need a computer or tablet with a reliable internet connection, a webcam, and a microphone. Our virtual classroom works right in your web browser, so there's no special software to download. It's designed to be simple and easy to use for everyone.
Can tutoring really help me improve my grades for National 5s and Highers?
Absolutely! We're proud that 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade. Our personalised approach means your tutor focuses exactly on what you need, helping you understand complex topics, refine your exam technique, and ultimately achieve the strong National 5 and Higher results that open doors to your future.
