Welcome to Fraley Tutors. Here's how everything works once you're set up — your portal, lessons, homework, and the practical details — so you can get the most from your time with us.
Three quick steps to get set up:
Everything for your tutoring lives in one place, on any device:
Your next lessons show at the top of your portal, each with a Join button that opens the video call. This is where to check when your lessons are — and where to ask for a reschedule or cancellation if you need one (see below).
Homework your tutor sets appears here. Submit your work and get it marked straight away — more on that below.
Stuck between lessons? Ask your tutor a question any time — more on that below.
Your full lesson history — each lesson's notes, its recording, and a topic-by-topic map of what you've covered and when. It's the same picture your tutor works from between lessons. Your complete course notes for your subject live here too.
Once you're signed in, the portal's own Help page walks through every screen step by step — installing it on a phone, submitting homework, and what to do if something doesn't look right.
Your weekly lesson is where the teaching happens — everything else here exists to support it. The practical side:
Lessons are online, over Google Meet, using an interactive whiteboard. You use the same recurring link every time — just press Join on the upcoming lesson in your portal when it's time. Your tutor works through material and problems with you, and the notes from your lesson are saved to your portal afterwards.
Your tutor records each lesson. Shortly after it finishes, the recording appears in My Learning so you can rewatch any time. Recordings are stored securely and are only accessible to you, your tutor, and Fraley Tutors.
Plans change. You can request a reschedule or cancellation right from the upcoming lesson in your portal, and your tutor will confirm it. Please give as much notice as you can (see cancellations below).
Between your lessons, your tutor keeps a working picture of how you're doing — topic by topic, lesson by lesson. What's genuinely clicking, what's still shaky, and what's worth coming back to. They look at it before each lesson, so the hour starts already aimed at what matters most, instead of spending its first ten minutes finding out.
It's also where your homework comes from. Your tutor builds each set by hand, choosing exam-style questions that match your exam board and the topics you're on right now — so practice is targeted rather than generic, and each set is a step in the plan rather than a one-off. When a question is worth walking through properly, they can pull up a full worked solution in seconds, which keeps lesson time on the method rather than the algebra.
None of this replaces the teaching. Your tutor leans on the platform to hold the detail — what's been covered, what's landed, what's still open — so their own attention goes where it should: deciding what you need next, and teaching it. Over a year of lessons, that's what stops anything important quietly slipping through the cracks.
When your tutor sets homework, you can get it marked the moment you finish. Submit a photo of your working in the portal and you'll get it back in seconds — with a hint that points you to the fix rather than handing you the answer, and credit for the right method even when the final answer isn't quite there. You can submit as many times as you like and keep going until it clicks — so you're learning between lessons, even when your tutor isn't in the room. Your tutor sets the work and reviews anything that needs a closer look.
Homework is there to help, never to pile on — if you don't get to it, that's fine, and you'll work through it together in your lesson. When you do attempt it, note where you got stuck and bring those questions along.
You have a complete set of Fraley Tutors course notes for your subject, available in your portal under My Learning. They cover the key topics in your syllabus and are there to work through alongside your lessons — a reference you can return to any time.
The Q&A section of your portal is there whenever you're stuck between lessons. Post your question — type it, or attach a photo — and choose how much help you'd like: a hint, a full worked solution, or a check of your working. Your tutor replies, and you can ask a follow-up. You can post anonymously if you'd rather.
Your tutor is your primary point of contact — reach them any time at their Fraley Tutors email (firstname@fraleytutors.com), and they'll typically reply within 24 hours on a working day.
You can see how things are going at any point in the portal — lesson notes, homework, and the topics you've covered are all there. And you're always welcome to ask your tutor to talk through progress whenever you'd like; just drop them a line to arrange it.
For anything not about a specific lesson, email us at admin@fraleytutors.com.
Our current rates are on our pricing page. Invoices are issued monthly for the lessons completed that month, and are payable on receipt.
Plans change — just let your tutor know as early as you can and we'll find another time, at no charge. If you cancel within 2 hours of a lesson, we'll still do our best to reschedule it; but if a convenient time can't be found, the lesson will be charged.
We're grateful for recommendations. If you know a family who'd benefit from tutoring, you can give them £50 off their first block — and once they've completed 8 lessons and are properly settled in, you'll both get £50 in account credit. The credit is applied to your account rather than paid out as cash. Your own referral link is in the portal's Help page, under Refer a friend.
The platform keeps the long view; the strategy, the judgement, and the teaching are all your tutor's.
If anything here raises a question, your tutor is always happy to help.
