Amba M
Enthusiastic Tutor of Law with SEN experience
I have removed my availability calendar as the calendar on tutorful does not take into account lessons I do into schools, private tutees and other platforms I work on. It only syncs to the lessons booked on tutorful, not my up-to-date availability.I do have availability, limited slots during the day, mainly evening and weekend lessons now. However, I do get booked up fast and months in advance.It is always better to discuss this with me first before you request a lesson, and if you cannot find something, I will always do my best to accommodate your needs.About Me I'm Amba. I am a mum to an 8-year-old...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're aiming for a school like Westminster or City of London. Can we find an 11+ specialist?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in preparing children for the 11+ and specific entrance exams for top independent schools. You can check their profiles for proven experience and message them to discuss your child's specific needs for competitive London schools.

Can a tutor help my child with their application to a university like King's College London or LSE?

Yes, many of our tutors can provide invaluable support beyond the curriculum. They can help with personal statement writing, interview practice, and building the subject knowledge needed to create a strong application for top universities.

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

Finding the right fit is so important. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child 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 choose the right tutor for my child?

You can watch tutors' introduction videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications on their profile. You can also send a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before you book a lesson.

How can I be sure the tutors are safe?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and personally interviewed by our team. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

How much does online tutoring cost?

Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles with no hidden fees. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level, so you can find someone who fits your budget.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.

Is tutoring just for school subjects like Maths and English?

Not at all! While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also offer support for hobbies and professional skills. Your child could learn to play the guitar, get help with coding, or even learn a new language.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

One-to-one lessons provide a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Tutors celebrate small wins and adapt their teaching style, which helps your child feel understood and more capable in their abilities.

How often should my child have a lesson?

It's completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Many families find a regular weekly session works well, but you can schedule lessons as often or as little as you need. You can discuss the best approach directly with your tutor.

Do we have to commit to a block of lessons?

No, there are no long-term commitments or contracts. Our platform is pay-as-you-go, giving you the flexibility to book lessons when it suits your family.

What results can we expect?

While 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, the biggest changes parents notice are in confidence and enthusiasm for a subject. Our goal is to help your child feel capable and less anxious about their learning.
