Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
How can I find the best online tutor for my child in Wincanton?
It's simple to find the right fit. You can use our search filters to narrow down tutors by subject and level, then read reviews and ratings from other parents. You can also message tutors directly to discuss your child's specific needs before booking a lesson.
Are your tutors familiar with the curriculum taught at schools near Wincanton?
Yes, many of our tutors are experienced with the main UK exam boards like AQA, Edexcel, and OCR, which are used by most schools, including The Gryphon and King Arthur's. They can tailor their teaching to match the specific syllabus your child is studying.
What happens if my child and their first tutor don't click?
We want to make sure it's the perfect match. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you're not completely happy after the first session, let us know by emailing support@tutorful.co.uk, and we'll find another tutor and cover the cost of that first lesson.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes live video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes and working through problems together, and a messaging system. It's a secure and engaging way for your child to learn from home.
Can tutoring really help improve my child's GCSE grades?
Absolutely. Focused, one-to-one support can make a huge difference. We've seen students improve their GCSE results by up to two grades, and on average, it takes just eight hours of tutoring to help a student move up by one grade.
How do you check your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety and the quality of their education are our top priorities. We have a strict vetting process, accepting just 1 in every 8 applicants. This includes ID checks, interviews with our team, and ensuring they have the subject expertise to make a real impact.
How much does a tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. Each tutor sets their own hourly rate, which is clearly displayed on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees.
How often should my child have a lesson?
It really depends on your child's goals. Many parents find a one-hour lesson each week provides consistency and helps build momentum. However, you can arrange lessons as frequently as you need, whether it's for a short-term exam boost or ongoing weekly support.
How do I know if the tutoring is making a difference?
You'll see it in your child's growing confidence and understanding. Our tutors provide regular feedback on progress, and our platform allows you to see what they've been working on. Plus, with 90% of our students improving by at least one grade, the results speak for themselves.
My child wants to learn guitar. Do you offer tutors for hobbies?
Yes, we do! Learning is about more than just core academic subjects. We have many talented tutors who can teach music, art, coding, and other creative skills. It's a fantastic way for your child to explore their passions with expert guidance.
What subjects can we find tutors for?
We offer tutors across a huge range of subjects. This includes the core subjects of Maths, English, and Science (Biology, Chemistry, and Physics), as well as languages, humanities like History and Geography, and much more, from primary level right through to A-Level.
How do I book our first lesson?
Once you've found a tutor you think is a good fit, you can send them a message directly from their profile to ask any questions and discuss what your child needs. When you're ready, you can agree on a time and book your first lesson right there on the platform.
