Far from being a less rigorous option, General Studies helps your child develop essential skills for higher education. It teaches them how to analyse complex information, form compelling arguments, and understand the world around them – all vital for success in any degree. A great tutor can connect these skills directly to your child’s university ambitions, helping them showcase their abilities in personal statements and interviews, making their application stand out.

Christopher J
My daughter had only a brief time with Christopher but he was very reliable. He was very thorough in the topics we requested and obviously knew economics in detail. He expanded on subjects when required but kept it simple to understand- thank you so much for your time
Would recommend Christopher!

My daughter has had Katie for nearly a term now and she is loving the sessions. She is inspired by Katies teaching of A-level maths and always looks forward to them. Katie is reliable, friendly, responsive to messages and makes her lessons great fun as well as informative, getting my daughter A-level exam ready. We are really glad we found her and would recommend. Her teaching has already had an impact on my daughter's test results and confidence.

Chinazaekpele J
She is absolutely amazing!! I am a mature student studying A levels; moving from a design background into science is a huge leap, Chinaze has been nothing but supportive and helpful. Her knowledge is impressive and she’s extremely flexible with lessons. Every time I’ve had a session with her, I’ve left feeling very confident. I’m that annoying student who is always asking why and she always has an answer, even if it’s not relevant to the subject. Really grateful to have found her :)

Chris is a really patient and knowledgeable A-Level Chemistry tutor. Having been through quitea few chemistry tutors on tutorful before, I settled with Chris as Ifound his style of teaching really worked with me compared to other tutors. Chris' style for me is mainly to focus on understanding the key concepts to ensure I can apply these ideas to the exam effectively, and it is definetely working and I am gaining a lot of confidence very quickly. Would highly recommend.

Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is applying to competitive universities like Queen Mary and UCL. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with university applications. They can help your child develop the higher-level critical thinking skills these institutions look for, and provide support with personal statements and interview practice to help them shine.
We're in Tower Hamlets. Are the tutors familiar with the curriculum at local sixth forms?
While our tutors are based across the UK, many are experienced with the main exam boards (like AQA, Edexcel, OCR) used by schools and colleges everywhere, including in Tower Hamlets. You can view each tutor's profile to see their specific experience and even message them to ask about the curriculum before booking.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can filter tutors by subject and level, then read their profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few to find someone your child will connect with.
How do you make sure the tutors are safe and trustworthy?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked with an enhanced DBS check. We also interview every applicant and are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 who apply. You can feel confident your child is in safe hands.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices typically start from £15 per hour, allowing you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor who fits your family's budget.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. It’s a collaborative space where your child can work directly with their tutor on everything from analysing texts to solving tricky maths problems.
My child's confidence is low. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a patient, encouraging environment where your child can ask questions without fear of being judged. This personalised support is fantastic for building self-esteem.
What if we don't like the first tutor we try?
We want you to be completely happy. With our first lesson guarantee, if you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Many tutors respond to messages within a few hours, and you could have your first lesson booked for as early as today. It's a simple way to get support right when your child needs it.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with skills like public speaking or music?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. You can find expert tutors for everything from learning an instrument like the guitar, to practical skills like coding, public speaking, and university interview preparation.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person?
Yes, and many families find it even more effective. Our interactive online classroom has all the tools needed for a great lesson, and it saves you travel time. Plus, you have access to the best tutors from across the UK, not just those who live nearby.
How can I track my child's progress?
The best way is to chat with your child's tutor. They can provide regular feedback on how things are going, what they've been working on, and what the plan is for future lessons. It's a partnership between you, your child, and the tutor.
