Good tutors but no admin help

Used two tutors, both have been very good. Would give 5 stars but the admin help has vanished (it was good a few months ago). I referred a friend which should give us both £25 but the link didn’t work and no one answers the email anymore. So I am posting it here in the hope that someone responds.

Hi,

Thank you for your review. We’re really pleased to hear that you’ve had such positive experiences with both tutors. That’s exactly what we aim for, so it’s great to hear this.

That said, I’m really sorry to hear about the issues you’ve had with reaching out to our admin team and the referral process.

We’d love to get this sorted for you. The referral credit should absolutely be honoured if the criteria have been met, and we also want to understand why the link didn’t work in your case.

Could you please get in touch with us again at support@tutorful.co.uk with the subject line “Trustpilot Review – Referral Issue”. We’ll prioritise this and make sure you receive a proper response.

Thanks again for bringing this to our attention and for recommending us. We really appreciate it.

Help for our daughter’s English A-level

My daughter needed some help with getting her A-level English grade improved and we found a fantastic tutor called Hannah on Tutorful. It’s easy to find the tutors you require and the whole website is easy to use. The ability to watch a lesson again, or view old whiteboards, is really helpful, as is reviewing what was covered, how it went and what comes next.
My daughter has greatly benefited from this experience, her grades have been improving, and, importantly, she is enjoying it.

Fantastic experience and a briliant tutor!

We’ve had a wonderful experience using Tutorful to find extra support for my son. The website is very user-friendly and made it so easy to find the right match. His maths tutor, Samantha, has been absolutely amazing. She is patient, engaging, and my son genuinely enjoys his lessons with her now. His confidence in maths has grown so much. I highly recommend both the platform and Samantha!

Excellent Service

My son was struggling with his A level physics and becoming quite frustrated.
I didn't know any physics tutors personally and so decided to try tutorful. The platform is easy to negotiate and we made contact with Richard .He replied to my enquiry immediately. He is a very experienced tutor with knowledge of all the exam boards .The most important thing is that my son's confidence is already growing. Richard is discovering gaps in his knowledge and helping to fill those so my son understands a topic fully .
Payment is taken after every lesson .
As a parent the relief is huge ! Just to see my son starting to enjoy the subject. Highly recommend based on our experience

Very helpful staff. And the quality of the Tutorful virtual classroom makes online teaching and learning feel like a breeze! :)

Tutorful admin staff are great in my experience! Both Evie and Emily at Tutorful have been understanding, thoughtful and supportive regarding some technical queries I've recently had.

The lessons are going well, both from the tutor's (my) perspective and, importantly, from my students' angles too! There is unfortunately a commission rate for teachers that is likely very unavoidable, however there are many advantages to having Tutorful's ongoing support and secure online platform! And, in my experience, they happen to be such a friendly team too!

Hi,

Thank you for taking the time to write this kind and thoughtful review. We are so glad that you have been feeling so supported by our team! We always want our users to have the best experiences possible with us.

It is also great to hear that your lessons have been going so well, for both yourself and your students.

Thank you so much for sharing your opinion regarding the service fee. We want to reassure you that our service fee is only ever added onto tutor's chosen earnings. This then creates the total lesson price for students. The service is invested straight back into the platform to help improve processes and the experience for all users.

If you ever any further questions about the service fee or anything else, we will be more than happy to assist. Please email us at support@tutorful.co.uk.

Thanks again for your time and kind words.
