Jack R
Very patient and very clear when explaining stuff. Doesn’t go too fast and really knows what he’s talking about. I knew basically nothing about python before I got him, now I’m much more confident with everything and am able to do some good coding on my own. Would definitely recommend if you’re interested in anything python related!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a competitive sixth form after their GCSEs. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. Many parents in Waltham use our tutors to help their children secure the strong GCSE grades needed for sought-after sixth forms and colleges. A tutor can provide focused exam preparation and help fill any knowledge gaps, boosting your child's confidence and their final results. In fact, our tutors can help improve GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
We're worried about the A-Level grades needed for London universities. Can you help with that?
Yes, that's a common concern for families in London and a key area where our tutors can help. Our A-Level tutors are specialists in their subjects and can provide the in-depth support your child needs to tackle complex topics and achieve the high grades required for competitive university courses.
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 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 do I pick the right tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also send a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding the perfect match for your family.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level, but you can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you can book as many or as few lessons as you need.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check. We also interview them and verify their qualifications, only accepting 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How does online tutoring work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Sometimes a lack of confidence is the biggest hurdle. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong. A great tutor will praise their effort, celebrate small wins, and patiently explain things until they click, which can make a huge difference to their self-belief.
Is it just for core school subjects like Maths and English?
Not at all! While we have thousands of expert tutors for academic subjects, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. You can find tutors for everything from learning to code in Python, playing the guitar, or even preparing for a music theory exam.
How many lessons will my child need?
There's no set number. It completely depends on your child's goals. Some students have a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others have regular weekly lessons throughout the school year. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
Can a tutor help with one specific topic my child is stuck on?
Definitely. That's one of the main benefits of one-to-one tutoring. If your child understands most of a subject but is really struggling with, for example, covalent bonding in Chemistry, the tutor can dedicate entire lessons to that one area until it makes sense.
What happens if we need to reschedule a lesson?
We know that life can be unpredictable! You can easily rearrange lessons by messaging your tutor directly through the platform. Our tutors are generally very flexible and will work with you to find a time that suits.
