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.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Natalie G
Highly Recommended Maths Tutor!
Natalie is a fantastic tutor and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. She tailors every lesson to my daughter’s individual needs, and as a visual learner, my daughter finds her sessions engaging, fun, and easy to understand. Natalie prepares each lesson beautifully and always comes with creative ways to explain even the trickiest concepts.
We’ve used tutors for all three of our children over the years, and only Natalie and one other tutor have provided such thoughtful, detailed feedback after every session — something we find extremely valuable.
It’s genuinely hard to find a maths tutor who makes lessons enjoyable, but Natalie does exactly that.
For the first time ever, my daughter actually looks forward to her maths sessions! Her confidence has grown, and so have her skills.
I highly recommend Natalie to any child who struggles with maths or simply wants to strengthen their abilities. Thank you, Natalie, for your dedication and wonderful teaching approach!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're in Walkden and aiming for a grammar school in Trafford or Bury. Can a tutor help with the 11+?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have experience with the specific requirements of the Trafford and Bury grammar school entrance exams. They can help your child build skills in verbal and non-verbal reasoning, Maths, and English to approach the test with confidence.
My child hopes to study at the University of Manchester or Salford. Can a tutor help with their A-Levels to secure a place?
Yes. A-Levels are a significant step up, and our tutors can provide targeted support to help your child achieve the grades they need for competitive university courses. They can help with everything from understanding complex topics to exam technique and revision strategies.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is key to building their confidence.
How much do online tutors cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, starting from around £20 per hour. You can easily filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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.
My child has lost their confidence. How can a tutor help?
Confidence is often the biggest hurdle. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of being judged by classmates. Our tutors are skilled at breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, which can make a huge difference to a child's self-belief.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has a valid DBS background check. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It has all the tools needed for your child to have an engaging, collaborative lesson from home.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we cover all academic subjects from Primary to Degree level, we also have expert tutors for a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding in Python, or learn a new language, we can help.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
You'll see it in their confidence and their school results. Tutors provide regular feedback on the topics they've covered and the progress your child is making. Open communication with your tutor is encouraged, so you'll always know how things are going.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths with your tutor to fit what works best for your child's schedule and learning needs.
Can we find a tutor to help with GCSEs specifically?
Of course. We have a huge number of tutors who are GCSE specialists. They are experts in their subjects and understand the exam board specifications inside out, helping students to improve their results by up to two grades.
