Lots of options to find a tutor that you like
Lots of options to find a tutor. I like the feature that you can watch the lesson (as it s recorded).
The downside is that I can not just have a lesson every other week, so I need to keep asking the tutor to cancel. There is no option for bimonthly.

Hi Joanna,
Thank you so much for leaving us a 5-star review.
We're so pleased to hear that you're happy with the platform and the different features we have to offer!
You can absolutely schedule fortnightly lessons rather than weekly. Your tutor should be able to schedule these on your behalf. Alternatively, please reach out to us at support@tutorful.co.uk and we can set this up for you!
Kind regards,
The Tutorful Team.
Good but could be better
My child is using this platform and overall is happy with the tutoring itself. There are some shortcomings with the platform's functionality itself. If Tutorful could fix that, it would make it for a much nicer user experience.

Having worked for Tutorful for five…
Having worked for Tutorful for five years, they have become more money grabbing and the service has declined greatly. Tutors are not paid for some work and the cut taken has increased. The parents are paying over the odds for access to subject specialists.

Hi,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We really value this and appreciate your honesty.
We would like to reassure you that we always prioritise paying tutors if their student has not paid them for their time. Please do let us know at support@tutorful.co.uk if there are any lessons for which you are missing payments and we can ensure you are paid correctly for your time.
We can confirm that Tutorful also never takes payment from tutors. Tutors select their chosen rate that they would like to earn and then students pay the cost of this, plus our service fee, which is directly invested into improving the platform and processes for users.
Please do let us know if you would like to speak with us more about this or if you have any concerns. We will be more than happy to speak with you about this.
Thank you again for sharing your feedback.

My son was initially hesitant to have an online lesson, so I was in the room with him.
The tutor, Helena, quickly made him comfortable within few minutes of the lesson starting and he gave me a thump to leave the room.
Every time I asked him about the lesson, his response is, "the lesson was very good and I'm beginning to understand things better".

My first lesson went really well overall. The audio and video quality were very clear, which made communication smooth and comfortable. The student was engaged throughout the session, and we were able to cover the planned content effectively. I felt the lesson had a positive atmosphere, and I’m looking forward to continuing and supporting the student’s progress.

Tutorful will scam you penalty automatically
I have used this platform for 5 years. It was good. But the system recently changed to force you to book a lesson even before messaging to the tutor for details. The system will book the lesson in the same day automatically, that's why you will cancel with penalty. Support from Emily will always telling you the company policy to support Tutorful has rights to charge the penalty. She only see her screen shots without looking at the IT log details whether it's reasonable for a user would book a lesson in less than 24 hours （at the same time I chat with the tutor about his availability). I have deleted this after 5 years usage.

Hi Wen,
Thank you for providing your feedback and for being with us for 5 years, we truly value your long term support.
We're sorry to hear about your recent experience. To clarify how the system works, when submitting a lesson request, students can choose any date and time that the tutor has marked as available. Once a lesson is booked and confirm, students are then able to message the tutor directly to discuss lesson details, goals or any other arrangements. The system does not automatically book a lesson for the same day unless that specific day or time has been selected.
Our booking and cancellation policies are in place to protect both students and tutors and to ensure fairness on the platform. We're sorry if any part of the process felt unclear or unfair.
If you'd like to discuss further, please reach out to us at support@tutorful.co.uk.

I have found tutorful a great resource for finding tutors for my daughter studying her GCSE's. Most importantly being able to have a 15 minute chat to see if the tutor seems to be the right fit, but also the detailed biog and reviews have been brilliant. We currently have two tutors working with her and easiest of all it is all on line, and I can review the lessons afterwards if I want.
