Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the 11-plus for grammar schools in Bexley and Kent. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11-plus preparation and have specific experience helping children with the requirements for Bexley and Kent grammar schools. You can filter your search for 11-plus specialists and read their profiles to find the perfect match for your child.
We live in Woolwich. Are tutors familiar with the Greenwich secondary school admissions process?
While our tutors are based across the UK, many have extensive experience with the London school system, including the application process for popular comprehensive and grammar schools in and around Greenwich. You can message tutors before booking to ask about their specific experience with local schools.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit for your child's personality and learning style. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check qualifications on each tutor's profile. We also recommend messaging a few tutors to chat about your child's goals before you book a session.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right connection is key to learning. 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.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident for their exams?
Confidence comes from feeling prepared. Tutors create a safe, one-to-one space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By patiently working through tricky topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor helps your child build self-belief alongside their subject knowledge.
How much does online tutoring cost in Woolwich?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically range from £25 to £50 depending on their experience and subject level. You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or extra costs.
How are your tutors vetted?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed by our team, has their ID and qualifications verified, and undergoes an enhanced DBS background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
How does online tutoring work? What equipment do we need?
All you need is a laptop or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing to make learning engaging and effective.
Can tutoring guarantee my child a place at their first-choice school?
While no one can guarantee a school place, tutoring gives your child the best possible chance to perform at their peak. By providing personalised support and building their confidence, a tutor equips your child with the skills and mindset to do their very best in their entrance exams.
Is it only for exam preparation, or can you help with other skills?
It's for everything! While many parents come to us for help with the 11-plus, GCSEs, or A-Levels, we also have amazing tutors who can teach your child life-long skills like coding, learning to play the guitar, or speaking a new language.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour-long session per week is ideal for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You might want to increase the frequency in the run-up to an exam. You can discuss the best plan with your tutor.
How can I track my child's progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message them at any time through the platform to discuss progress and ask any questions you might have. It's a partnership between you, your child, and the tutor.
