In their own words
Tutorful
Tutorful helps students find tutors, compare candidates, and book and pay for one-to-one lessons through its website. Students provide the subject, level, goals, availability, and preferences to receive a shortlist. Tutor profiles show experience, qualifications, teaching style, reviews, and ratings. Lessons take place online through Tutorful’s classroom using Lessonspace, with a whiteboard, document uploads, and screen sharing; online lessons are recorded for students and parents to replay. The service covers academic subjects, languages, music, arts, computing, sports, and special educational needs, from primary level through A-level and beyond. Students pay the tutor-set hourly rate plus a service fee; lessons generally cost £20–£45 per hour including fees, depending on subject, study level, and tutor experience. Tutors have free accounts and set their own rates, with no commission deducted from earnings. Tutors must have an enhanced background check awarded within the previous three years, and new tutors must provide two written references. Lessons are only available online through the classroom. Tutorful’s free tutor app is available on iOS and Android.
