Personalised Support, Designed Around Your Child
For parents new to tutoring, the idea of finding the perfect match can feel overwhelming. You don’t need to become an expert in tutor selection; we handle that. Tell us about your child – their strengths, their challenges, and what they need – and we thoughtfully match them with a tutor. This isn’t a random pick; it’s a considered recommendation designed to find someone who doesn't just know their subject, but also knows how to connect and build confidence.
Forget imagining just another video call. Tutorful’s interactive online classroom is purpose-built for learning. Your child and their tutor work together on a shared whiteboard, solving problems in real-time with annotation tools to highlight and explain. Every session is recorded, meaning they can revisit tricky concepts before an exam, ensuring every lesson is active, engaging, and genuinely collaborative.
Learning online means your child in Torbay can access the very best tutors from across the UK, without any travel or disruption to your family’s busy schedule. Sessions fit around school, sports, and family life – whenever works best for you. And if that first tutor isn't quite the right fit, we’ll happily cover the cost of a new first session, because finding that connection is what truly matters.

Holly C
Excellent motivation coach and psychology tutor
I have been teaching psychology for over ten years and I genuinely love helping young people unlock their potential. Tutoring gives me the chance to work more closely with students, building their confidence and showing them that with the right strategies, they can achieve more than they thought possible. I didn’t always find school easy myself, so it’s become my mission to help students feel at ease, develop a growth mindset, and recognise their own worth. Seeing students grow in confidence is what drives me.In lessons, I like to keep things structured but relaxed. A typical session might sta...

Enthusiastic (and patient) tutor of FRENCH for all levels
Hi I have always loved French and have a natural flair and feel for it, so, naturally, I went on to study it atUniversity. My particular course gave me the opportunity to work in both France and Switzerland so I got to experience how people really work and live in both these places.I also travelled widely during my placements to experience the culture and understand the identity of the locals. My family and I have now returned to the UKafter more than 12 years of living and working in Paris. In fact, both my children were born in Paris.

Faraz A
Went through 4 different economics tutors throughout this year, Faraz was by far the best at explaining content and his expertise in exam techniques massively helped me in my final exams, bumping me by at least one full grade if not more. Would highly recommend!!

Katy B
Katy is a truly fabulous tutor. My son recognised that he needed help but was a bit nervous about the 1:1 teaching, afraid that it would reveal his lack of knowledge. Katy’s exceptionally friendly and engaging approach motivated and inspired him to want to focus and address the topics he was unsure of and/or uncomfortable with. Her ability to impart her knowledge in a meaningful way for him has meant that he has been able to approach his exams with greater confidence than certainly would have been the case without Katy’s help and support.
We cannot thank-you enough Katy :))!
