Daniel P
Daniel kindly came in at the last minute to help my son understand what was needed for his EAPI (part of A level PE coursework). Daniel was really responsive, and gave great advice in a form my son understood how to implement. My son just did his EAPI today and the feedback from his teacher/examiner is that he did very well. I am confident that Daniel's intervention has resulted in my son getting a higher grade than he would have otherwise.

Richard S
Richard is an excellent tutor with great advice. Instead of telling me the answer he allows me to independently think and gives small clues on how to get to the answer. He also provided me with great key points and acronyms that help me remember essay structure as well as giving me external resources which contain useful information for my exam.

Jack R
We’ve had a fantastic experience with Jack as a maths tutor - so far my daughter had three sessions with him. Jack is an excellent communicator and explains concepts clearly and step-by-step, making even the all topics feel manageable. His lessons are well-structured and thoughtfully tailored to my daughter’s needs (we aim for confidence in class and confident GCSE mark).
Jack is also incredibly friendly and positive, which creates a really encouraging learning environment - one of my key requirements. My daughter genuinely enjoys her lessons with him and is already feeling much more confident in her maths curriculum. Highly recommended!

asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE grades needed for Peter Symonds College?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students aim for top grades. They can focus on specific areas of the curriculum, improve exam technique, and build the confidence your child needs to perform their best and meet the entry requirements for competitive colleges.
My child is hoping to study at the University of Southampton. Can a tutor help with their A-Levels?
Definitely. Many of our tutors are A-Level specialists and can provide in-depth support to help your child master their subjects. They can help them achieve the grades they need to secure a place at their first-choice university, like the University of Southampton.
How do I find the right tutor in Totton for my child?
Because our tutoring is online, you have access to the best tutors from across the UK, not just those in Totton. You can easily filter by subject, level, and price on our website. Read tutor profiles, watch their intro videos, and check reviews from other parents to find the perfect match for your child.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's 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.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a background check and we interview every single one. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. This means you can find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your family's budget.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence?
Confidence is key to learning. In a one-to-one setting, tutors provide patient, personalised support. They create a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement, celebrate small wins, and gradually build back their self-belief.
What happens in an online lesson?
Our online classroom is designed to be interactive and engaging. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for solving problems together, and a document editor for working on essays. It has all the tools needed for a productive and fun lesson.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we offer fantastic support for academic subjects from Primary through to degree level, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn to play the guitar, master a new language, or even get started with coding.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week works well, but it's completely flexible. You can discuss your child's goals with your chosen tutor and agree on a schedule that works best for them, whether that's weekly sessions or a few intensive lessons before an exam.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths with your tutor if needed.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Simply search for a tutor, send them a message to check their availability, and you can book your first lesson in just a few clicks. Many tutors can start within a couple of days.
