Online 11+ English Tutors
The 11 Plus can feel like a huge amount of pressure, for your child and for you. When you see them struggling with complex texts or creative writing, it’s hard to know how to help — especially when the way it’s taught has changed so much.
But even when you can’t help with the subject, you can still help them. You don’t need to spend hours searching for the right person. Our Tutor Finder asks a few simple questions about your child and what they need, then we find a specialist 11+ English tutor for them.

When English stops feeling like a test, and starts making sense
The right support can change how your child sees the subject. Instead of staring at a blank page, they start to find their own ideas for stories. Instead of guessing at comprehension answers, they learn how to find clues in the text.
It's about building real confidence that goes far beyond exam day. The goal is a child who feels prepared and capable, ready for their grammar school assessments and for the step up to secondary school.
Find a tutor
You answer a few questions. We find the right person.
Our Tutor Finder does the work so you don't have to. It asks about the specific areas of 11+ English your child needs to work on, how they like to learn, and what you want to achieve. We then recommend a small, personalised shortlist of tutors we would genuinely back for your child.
Every tutor we recommend has passed a rigorous selection process — only 1 in 8 applicants are accepted. They aren’t just English experts; they understand the pressures of the 11+ and know how to build a child’s confidence.
And if the first session isn’t quite the right fit, our First Lesson Guarantee means we’ll find another tutor at no charge. It’s the right person for your child, guaranteed.

Joe T
Joe has been a great tutor for my kids. Firstly, he is very friendly which puts them at ease from the very start of the lesson. This has been really important for my son especially, as he is not keen on English Comprehension so to have someone who is easy to chat to and open to questions has been key.
Secondly Joe knows his stuff! He is a very experienced teacher so he has been able to explain complex grammar and comprehension concepts in a way my children understand.
He has been a great find!

Simon X
Simon tutored my 10 year old son, helping him prepare for 11+ exams. My son immediately clicked with Simon, and found the in-person lessons especially invaluable. Simon went to great lengths to strike up a rapport with my son, and the lessons seemed fun but also very effective and targetted to the individual 11+ exams he was sitting. We're very grateful for Simon's help and would absolutely recommend for any subject.

Ameela R
We're really pleased with the good progress my daughter made in English while preparing for her 11+ exam. It's been lovely to see her skills and confidence grow steadily.
A big part of that is thanks to Ameela’s calm and supportive approach. She was always patient, explained things clearly, and created a really positive environment for learning. Her lessons were well-structured and made the whole process feel much more manageable.
She's a very kind and dedicated teacher, and we're truly grateful for all her help during this important time. Thank you so much!

Laura is a brilliant tutor. She is so kind and built a great rapport with our eight year old.
His creative writing and English really came on with her help and he loved learning with her. She definitely contributed to him getting into his new school.
I wish we could have carried on lessons but his commute makes it difficult.
