Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to apply to Newcastle University. Can a tutor help with that?

Yes, definitely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with their university applications, including personal statements. You can find tutors who are graduates of Newcastle or other top universities themselves, and they can provide brilliant guidance and subject-specific support to help your child put forward their strongest application.

We live in Tyne and Wear. Are the tutors also local?

Because all our tutoring is online, your child can connect with the very best tutors from across the UK, not just those in Tyne and Wear. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists, ensuring you find the perfect match for your child's specific needs and learning style, whether they're studying for GCSEs or A-Levels.

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

We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

Is it just for core school subjects like Maths and English?

Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for all academic subjects, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. You can find tutors for modern languages, musical instruments like guitar and piano, and even practical skills like coding and Python.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check tutors' qualifications on their profiles. You can also message them before booking to discuss your child's needs and make sure it's a good fit.

How much does online tutoring in Tyne and Wear cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, starting from around £20 per hour. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As they start to understand topics they previously found difficult, their self-belief grows naturally, which often has a positive impact on their schoolwork in general.

How are your tutors vetted?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID and qualifications verified. We also interview them to ensure they have the right teaching skills and passion for their subject. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child.

What happens in an online lesson?

Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for drawing diagrams and solving problems, and a space to share documents. It's a really engaging way to learn one-to-one.

Do I have to commit to a block of lessons?

No, there's no long-term commitment. You can book lessons week by week, or if you find a tutor you love, you can schedule a regular weekly slot. It's completely flexible to fit around your family's needs.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Tutors provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also see their confidence grow as they tackle homework and prepare for exams more effectively. Many parents tell us they see a noticeable difference in their child's attitude towards learning.
