Keeret S
Professional tutor, happy to help students succeed!
Hello! I am a patient and enthusiastic tutor, willing to help students achieve the best grades possible in Maths and Chemistry. Through my own experiences, I am able to help students understand and practice specific concepts. I usually start my lessons with a quick retrieval, followed by an explanation of new concepts, and then practice questions. To finish, I give students an exam question and explain the mark scheme to them to ensure they can achieve top grades in exams. I have tutored other students for four years, so I am familiar with teaching methods that work well! Previously, I...

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!

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to get into Prince William School or Bishop Stopford. Can a tutor help with this?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in entrance exam preparation and building core Maths and English skills for the transition to secondary school. They can help your child build the knowledge and confidence they need to perform at their best.

We're aiming for a competitive university. Can a tutor help my child's application stand out?

Yes. Our tutors can provide specialist A-Level support to help your child achieve the grades they need. Many tutors also have experience with university applications and can help with personal statements and interview practice for courses at top universities.

How do I choose the best online tutor for my child in Thrapston?

You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors for free before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and goals.

What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know how important the right fit is, which is why we have our 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 does online tutoring cost?

Our tutors set their own prices, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts, so you have complete flexibility.

How can a tutor help my child feel more confident at school?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As their tutor helps them grasp difficult topics, you’ll likely see their self-esteem and willingness to participate in class grow.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check and we verify their ID and qualifications. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to join us.

Is it only for core subjects like Maths and English, or can you help with other skills?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Alongside core academic subjects, you can find tutors for modern languages, learning an instrument like guitar or piano, and even practical skills like coding and public speaking.

How long are the tutoring sessions?

Lessons are typically one hour long, which gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one session per week is ideal for consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely up to you. You might want more sessions leading up to an exam, or fewer during school holidays. It's flexible to fit your family's needs.

What technology do we need for online lessons?

All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is easy to use and has features like an interactive whiteboard to make learning engaging and effective.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message them at any time to discuss how things are going. The best sign, however, is often seeing your child grow in confidence and start to enjoy a subject they once found difficult.
