Eduarda has been a wonderful tutor for out son studying A Level maths. He has achieved a grade B and is on to university. With her patients, support and knowledge she has supportive him in achieving this grade, when initially he was predicted a D grade in maths. We could not recommend her highly enough for anyone requiring support for A Level maths. She even supported him with a few sessions in physics which secured him a grade B too. She is always on time and flexible if things need to change, she is just brilliant!

asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with their application to Burton and South Derbyshire College?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students prepare for college applications. They can work with your child to strengthen their understanding in key subjects, build their confidence for interviews, and ensure they meet the specific entry requirements for their chosen courses.
My child is hoping to study at the University of Derby or Loughborough. Can we find a tutor who understands what's needed?
Yes. We have many tutors who are graduates of top UK universities, including those in the Midlands. They can provide invaluable support with A-Level subjects, helping your child achieve the grades they need. They can also offer guidance on personal statements and university-level thinking, giving them a great head start.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
Finding the right fit is the most important thing, which is why we have a First Lesson Guarantee. If you feel the first session wasn't quite right for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.
Is this just for school subjects like Maths and English?
Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for core academic subjects, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. Whether your child wants to learn a musical instrument like the guitar, get ahead with coding, or explore a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help them pursue their passion.
How do I choose the best tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will feel comfortable learning with.
How much do tutors in Swadlincote cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
My child has lost their confidence. Can a tutor really help with that?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they help rebuild self-esteem and a positive attitude towards learning.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and we interview them to ensure they have the right experience and passion for teaching. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from the best.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes and working through problems together, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a computer or tablet and a stable internet connection.
How long are the lessons and how often should they be?
Lessons are typically one hour long, but you can arrange different lengths with your tutor. Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress, but you can schedule lessons as often as you need, especially in the run-up to exams.
Can tutoring help with specific exams like GCSEs?
Definitely. Our tutors are brilliant at exam preparation. They can help your child with revision techniques, past paper practice, and understanding mark schemes to ensure they walk into their exams feeling calm and prepared. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
We understand that life can be unpredictable. You can easily manage your schedule through the platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or change a lesson time.
