Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to get into St Robert of Newminster. Can a tutor help with that?

Absolutely. Gaining a place at a competitive sixth form like St Robert's depends on strong GCSE results. Our tutors can work with your child to build their subject knowledge, improve their exam technique, and boost their confidence, giving them the best possible chance of achieving the grades they need.

We're aiming for a place at Durham or Newcastle University. When should we start tutoring?

It's never too early to build a strong academic foundation. Excellent GCSEs are crucial for a competitive A-Level profile, which is what top universities like Durham and Newcastle look for. Starting with a tutor for GCSEs can help your child secure those foundational grades and develop study habits that will serve them well in the future.

How do I choose the best tutor for my child?

It's simple to find the perfect match on Tutorful. You can filter tutors by subject and level, read detailed profiles, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ensure they're the right fit for your child.

How much do tutors in Washington cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, which typically range from £25 to £50 per hour depending on their experience and the subject level. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

Are your tutors safe and background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every one of our tutors undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an identity check and a DBS background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How does online tutoring actually work?

Our online classroom is designed to be engaging and effective. Your child and their tutor can talk using video chat, share files, and work together on the interactive whiteboard. It has all the benefits of in-person tutoring, with the added convenience of learning from home.

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

We want to make sure your child has the best possible learning experience. 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 really lost their confidence. Can a tutor help with that?

Definitely. One-to-one tutoring is a fantastic way to rebuild confidence. In a supportive, patient environment, your child can ask questions they might be afraid to ask in class. Celebrating small wins and making steady progress with their tutor can make a huge difference to their self-belief.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer tutoring for a huge range of subjects and skills beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or learn a new language for fun, we have expert tutors who can help them explore their interests.

How often should my child have a lesson?

This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Most families start with one hour-long session per week. You can easily schedule more frequent lessons during busy exam periods or less frequent ones once your child feels more confident. It's completely flexible.

What results can we really expect?

While every child's journey is different, our focus is on making real progress. We're proud that 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one academic grade. For GCSEs, we can often help students improve by up to two grades.
