William C
Will has been a great choice for my son who began lessons in September 2025. The change in his confidence, in all subjects, is noticeable and very satisfying to see. Will explains and describes concepts with clarity, so important for the 11+ which are far from easy. I feel that Will understands how to handle my son, and does so exceptionally well, which means that every hour spent together is valuable teaching time with a lot of ground is covered. We are very happy to have him.

Mamun A
We are very happy with the support our child is receiving in preparation for the 11 Plus. From the beginning, Manum created a warm, encouraging environment where our child felt completely comfortable and at ease. Instead of feeling pressured, our child actually looks forward to the lessons and is happy to sit through each session fully engaged.
The tutor explains concepts clearly and patiently, adapting their approach to suit our child’s learning style. What has stood out just as much is the ease in communication between our child and Manum which leads to constructive dialogue about strengths and areas to focus on.
Overall, we’ve been extremely impressed with the professionalism, dedication, and genuine care shown. Both our child and we as parents would wholeheartedly recommend this tutor to anyone preparing for the 11 Plus.

Christina V
We have had a great experience with Christina. We engaged her to support our youngest to get through the English assessment to be able to join the same bi-lingual French/English school here in France as her elder sisters (as otherwise, as a native English speaker, she would have been pushed into a French-only local college). Over the months her confidence grew and grew; she successfully passed assessment, and is now at the same college as her siblings. Many thanks to Christina for her contributions, it was everything that we hoped for when we set off on the tutorful journey !

abdul M
Abdul has been an excellent tutor for my child. He is patient, reliable, and explains concepts clearly in a way that actually makes them easy to understand. My child has become more confident in the subject and their understanding has improved noticeably since starting tuition with him.
Abdul is always well-prepared, professional, and genuinely cares about his students’ progress. He takes the time to identify weaknesses and works through them step by step, rather than rushing through lessons. Communication has also been very good, and he is always happy to give feedback or advice.
I would highly recommend Abdul to any parent looking for a dedicated and effective tutor.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at a comprehensive in St Helens. Can a tutor really prepare them for grammar school entrance exams in Liverpool or the Wirral?
Absolutely. This is exactly where our online tutors excel. They are specialists in the 11+ curriculum and can identify and fill the specific knowledge gaps your child may have. We connect students in St Helens with tutors who have extensive experience preparing children for the unique demands of these selective exams, giving them a fair and competitive chance.
We're worried our child is at a disadvantage because of our St Helens postcode. How does online tutoring help?
Online tutoring removes geography from the equation. Your child isn't limited to tutors who happen to live nearby. Instead, they can connect with the best 11+ specialists from anywhere in the UK – including those with direct experience of the Wirral and Liverpool grammar school entrance processes. It levels the playing field completely.
Are your tutors familiar with the specific requirements for schools like The Blue Coat School or the Wirral grammars?
Yes. Many of our tutors specialise in preparing students for specific schools or regional exams. When you search, you can view tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and use our chat feature to ask them directly about their experience with the schools you're targeting before you even book.
Is online tutoring as effective as face-to-face for something as intensive as 11+ preparation?
We find it's even more effective for many families. Online sessions use interactive tools like digital whiteboards that make learning engaging and dynamic. Plus, the convenience means less stress and more energy to focus on learning. With access to a wider pool of specialist tutors, you can find the perfect match for your child, which is the most important factor for success.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first 11+ tutor?
Finding the right personality match is crucial, and we want you to be completely happy. If the first session isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor. It’s that simple.
How do you select your Eleven Plus tutors?
We're very selective. Only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform. Every tutor is interviewed, background-checked with an enhanced DBS, and has their qualifications verified. We look for experienced, passionate educators who know how to make learning feel inspiring.
How many hours of tutoring a week do you recommend for the 11+?
Most families find one hour per week is ideal. This allows for consistent progress without overwhelming the student. The tutor will work with you to make sure every session is focused and productive, and can provide materials for your child to work on between lessons if needed.
What technology does my child need for their online lessons?
It's very straightforward. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our secure, custom-built online classroom has all the tools they'll need, like an interactive whiteboard, built right in.
How much do online 11+ tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which typically range from £25 to £50 per hour depending on their experience and specialism. You can easily filter by price when you search, so you can find an amazing tutor who fits your budget.
Can tutoring help with my child's confidence and exam anxiety?
Yes, this is one of the most important benefits. A great tutor builds a child's self-belief alongside their subject knowledge. By breaking down challenges and celebrating small wins, they help your child feel prepared, capable, and much less anxious about the exam day itself.
Once the 11+ is over, do you offer tutoring for other subjects?
We do! We have expert online tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core Maths, English, and Science for GCSE and A-Level, to languages, coding, and music. We're here to support your child throughout their entire educational journey.
How many hours of tutoring a week do you recommend for the 11+?
Every tutor has a detailed profile with a video, student reviews, and a description of their teaching approach. You can message tutors for free before booking to discuss your child's needs and ensure you've found the perfect partner for their learning.
