In short

  • Online tutoring for a child makes sense from grade 4 of primary school. For younger children the lesson is shorter and with a parent nearby.
  • The lesson takes place in your browser: video, whiteboard, chat. A parent can watch the lesson at any moment.
  • The parent panel shows the next lesson, attendance, a note after every lesson and the state of the package for each child.
  • The price of a lesson in a package: 64 to 85 PLN for 60 minutes. Payment only after you choose a specific tutor.

From which grade online tutoring makes sense

It is not about the age on the birth certificate but whether your child can keep their attention on a screen and cope with a whiteboard. As a rough guide it looks like this.

  • Early primary school

    Grades 1 to 3

    An online lesson is possible, but shorter (25 to 35 minutes) and with a parent nearby. Most often: learning to read, the multiplication table, a first contact with English. A regular tutor and a good relationship matter, not the number of hours.

  • Older primary school

    Grades 4 to 8

    Here online tutoring works with no reservations. The child runs the lesson on the whiteboard independently. Typical goals: catching up in maths, preparing for the eighth-grade exam, improving grades in a specific subject.

  • Secondary school

    High school and technical school

    Usually the most effective form. Online lets you choose a tutor with experience in a given matura subject, whichever city they are in. Goals: the basic and extended matura, keeping up your average, olympiads.

What an online lesson for a child looks like

  • Everything in your browser

    Video, a shared whiteboard, chat and materials. Nothing to install, a laptop or a tablet and an internet connection are enough.

  • A parent can watch

    You can sit next to your child at any time and watch the lesson. There are no closed rooms.

  • A note after every lesson

    The tutor writes down what you covered and how your child worked. You can see whether learning is moving forward.

The parent panel for tutoring: what it gives you

Once a tutor is matched, the parent gets a panel in which they see their child’s whole learning in one place. One account handles several children.

  • Dashboard

    The next lesson, the state of the package and the tutor’s latest note on one screen.

  • Your child’s progress

    Attendance, engagement and a timeline of all the lesson notes.

  • Calendar

    The times of all your children in one place. You can propose rescheduling a lesson.

  • Packages and payments

    Lesson usage, the instalment schedule and topping up another package without searching again.

  • Messages

    Direct contact with the tutor. Your child’s chat with the tutor is separate.

  • Children’s accounts

    Each child can have a separate account with points and educational games. This is not required.

Your child’s safety

A parent makes one serious decision: whether to trust a stranger who stays with their child during a lesson. That is why we describe concretely what verification on Sprelli means.

  • The Verified badge means an identity document and confirmation of qualifications that an administrator has approved.
  • Communication and lessons take place through the platform. Your child’s chat with the tutor is separate from the parent’s chat.

How to choose a tutor for your child

On Sprelli you do not browse a list of hundreds of profiles. You describe what your child needs, and tutors of that subject respond to your request. You get several candidates and you choose. Before you do, check:

  • A profile photo with a visible face, not an avatar.
  • The Verified badge: an identity document and confirmation of qualifications that an administrator has approved.
  • Reviews from other parents and students, ideally with specifics about how the tutor runs lessons.
  • Clearly described experience with your child’s age group, not just a list of subjects.

Let’s start with one question

What does your child need? You describe the goal, tutors respond to you, you choose. Payment comes only after you choose.
