Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Anita really helps me with English - especially by going through the mark scheme in greater detail than in class, which is really useful when it comes to improving my essays. She also has helped with improving my analysis, providing me with stronger context and helping me add depth to it. I really recommend her as she is great!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're preparing for the Kent Test. Can I find a tutor with 11+ experience?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ and entrance exam preparation. You can use our search filters to find tutors who specifically mention experience with the Kent Test, helping your child build the vocabulary and comprehension skills they need.
My child is aiming for a grammar school in Maidstone. Can a tutor help with that specific goal?
Definitely. A one-to-one tutor can create a learning plan tailored to the requirements of specific grammar schools. They can focus on the types of questions and skills that are most important, giving your child targeted support to help them feel prepared and confident.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking to ensure you find the perfect match.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right relationship is key to learning. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of demand, so you can find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your family's budget.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check before they can start teaching. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy about in class. A tutor can break down tricky topics and celebrate small wins, which helps build their self-belief lesson by lesson.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools, making it easy for your child and their tutor to work together in real-time, just as they would in person.
Can a tutor help with specific texts, like Shakespeare's 'An Inspector Calls'?
Yes, that's one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. A tutor can focus specifically on the books, plays, or poems your child is studying for their GCSEs or A-Levels, helping them to analyse themes, characters, and quotes in detail.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like music or coding?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum. As well as English, Maths, and Science, you can find brilliant tutors for everything from learning the guitar and coding in Python to public speaking and creative writing.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child's schedule and concentration.
How do I pay for lessons?
Paying for lessons is straightforward and secure. You add your payment details to your account, and we handle the payments automatically after each lesson is completed. You'll never need to worry about paying a tutor directly.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
