I like to think that there is a real life example that can help to understand each part of maths.For me, success is not just about getting a top grade but learning to enjoy the subject and see how it can help in all areas of life. Nobody should fear any of the maths that exist in our...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We live in Witham and are aiming for a grammar school in Colchester. Can we find an 11+ specialist?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in 11+ preparation and are very familiar with the requirements for the Colchester grammar schools. You can filter your search for tutors with specific 11+ experience and message them beforehand to discuss your child's specific needs.

My child is worried about getting the right GCSE grades for Colchester Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help?

Yes, that's a very common goal for families we support. Our tutors provide targeted help across all GCSE subjects to help your child secure the grades they need. They can focus on exam technique and revision strategies to build confidence. We've seen tutoring help students improve their GCSE results by up to two grades.

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

We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, simply email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important step.

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

While we have fantastic tutors for core academic subjects, we also believe in learning for life! You can find expert tutors for a huge range of skills and hobbies, from learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to mastering coding languages like Python.

How much does online tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience, subject, and level. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find a brilliant, qualified tutor that fits your family's budget.

Can a tutor really help my child's confidence?

Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits we see. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. A great tutor celebrates small wins and helps them see their own progress, which can make a huge difference to their self-belief.

How do the online lessons work?

Our online classroom is simple to use. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space to share documents. It's designed to be just as effective as being in the same room, but with the convenience of learning from home.

How do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed by our team and must pass a background check before they can teach on our platform.

How often should my child have a lesson?

This is completely up to you and depends on your child's needs. Most families start with one lesson a week, but you can schedule more frequent sessions during busy exam periods or less frequent top-up lessons as needed. It's completely flexible.

How do I know Tutorful is a trusted platform?

We're proud to have helped over 200,000 students on their learning journey. We have a rating of 4.6 stars from over 4,100 reviews from parents just like you, which we hope gives you confidence in the support we provide.

What happens if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?

Life happens! You can easily reschedule or cancel a lesson through the platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, as per their cancellation policy which is clearly stated on their profile.
