Eduarda has been a wonderful tutor for out son studying A Level maths. He has achieved a grade B and is on to university. With her patients, support and knowledge she has supportive him in achieving this grade, when initially he was predicted a D grade in maths. We could not recommend her highly enough for anyone requiring support for A Level maths. She even supported him with a few sessions in physics which secured him a grade B too. She is always on time and flexible if things need to change, she is just brilliant!

asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to a competitive college in Scarborough. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students strengthen their applications for college. They can focus on the specific GCSE subjects and grades needed, build your child's confidence, and help them put their best foot forward to secure their place.
We're worried about the step up to A-Levels. Can a tutor prepare my child for that?
Yes, this is a great way to use tutoring. A tutor can help your child bridge the gap between GCSE and A-Level study. They can introduce them to new topics and more advanced ways of thinking, ensuring they start their new courses feeling prepared and confident, not overwhelmed.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right fit is important. 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.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer a huge range of subjects! Alongside core curriculum subjects like Maths and English, your child can learn practical skills like coding or a new language, or even explore creative pursuits like learning the guitar or music theory.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can use our search filters to find tutors who specialise in the right subject and level. You can then watch their introductory videos, read their bios, and check reviews from other parents. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute chat to see if they're a good fit before you book.
Are your tutors in Whitby safe to work with my child?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has to pass a rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from a trusted and experienced professional.
How much does online tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience, the subject, and the level of study. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you just pay for the lessons you book.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tuition provides a safe and encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, our tutors help students overcome learning barriers and build genuine self-belief.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a 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 your home.
How long are the lessons and how often should we have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long, and most families find that one session per week works well. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange the frequency and duration that best suits your child's needs and your family's schedule directly with your tutor.
Can I keep track of my child's progress?
Yes. Our tutors are happy to provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can easily communicate with them through our messaging system to stay updated on what they're covering and how your child is getting on.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
We understand that life can be unpredictable. You can cancel or reschedule a lesson for free, as long as you give your tutor at least 12 hours' notice. You can manage all your bookings easily through your Tutorful account.
