Grace C
Caring and supportive Tutor
When your child tells you that s/he is finding Maths difficult or “I can’t do the questions in Maths today”, be assured that s/he is not alone. As a class teacher, we regularly hear such a concern from children or parents.In my experience, working in small groups or giving students individualised coaching can have huge impact on children’s ability and confidence in Maths. A bespoke programme to address misconceptions, work at the children’s pace and teach a systematic approach to solving problems can help children experience and enjoy success in Maths, and build on the progress they have already a...

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE grades needed for WQE College?
Absolutely. Many parents in Syston use Tutorful for this exact reason. Our tutors can help your child focus on the specific subjects and grades they need, building their knowledge and exam confidence to help them submit a strong application to colleges like WQE.
My child is hoping to apply to Loughborough or Leicester University. Can a tutor support them?
Yes. While our tutors primarily focus on subject-specific learning for school and college, many are experienced in helping students prepare for university-level study. They can deepen your child's subject knowledge and develop the independent learning skills needed to succeed in higher education.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect fit. 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 goals before booking to ensure you find someone you all feel comfortable with.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and their ID is verified. We also interview them to ensure they have the right experience. We are very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to our platform.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that the right connection is key to learning. That's why we have 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.
How much do online tutors in Syston cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly shown on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits within your family's budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, making it easy for your child and their tutor to work through problems together, just as they would in person.
Can tutoring help if my child has lost their confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe and encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Celebrating small wins and overcoming challenges together is a fantastic way to rebuild their self-belief.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular tutoring. The biggest change parents often notice first is a boost in their child's confidence and a more positive attitude towards their studies.
Is it just for core subjects like Maths and English, or can you help with creative skills too?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While Maths, English and Science are very popular, you can also find brilliant tutors for everything from modern languages and music theory to coding and learning a musical instrument like the guitar.
Are the lessons flexible? What if we need to reschedule?
Yes, online tutoring is designed to be flexible. You can easily arrange lesson times that fit around your family's schedule. If you need to reschedule, you can do so with up to 24 hours' notice directly through the platform, free of charge.
How many lessons will my child need?
This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students have a few lessons to prepare for a specific exam, while others have regular weekly sessions throughout the school year to build their understanding. You can discuss this with your chosen tutor.
