Experienced Eleven Plus 11+ Tutor

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 aiming for Birkdale School or Sheffield High School. Can we find a tutor with experience of these specific exams?
Absolutely. Because we connect you with tutors from all over the UK, you have a much wider choice of specialists. Many of our tutors have specific experience preparing students for entrance exams at leading independent schools, and you can check their profiles and message them to ask about their familiarity with these particular exams.
We're concerned about the lack of local grammar schools in Sheffield. How does online tutoring help?
We understand this is a major concern for many Sheffield families. Online tutoring directly addresses this by giving your child access to top-tier 11+ specialists who can provide focused preparation for the independent school route. It levels the playing field, ensuring your child receives expert guidance without you having to worry about logistics or location.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for 11+ preparation?
Yes, and for many families, it's even better. Online lessons use interactive whiteboards and shared resources, making them just as engaging. The main advantages are access to a wider pool of specialist tutors from across the UK and the convenience of learning from home in Sheffield, which saves travel time and reduces stress for everyone.
What if my child doesn't click with their first 11+ tutor?
Finding the right personality match is so important. We want your child to feel comfortable and inspired. If the first session with a tutor isn't quite right, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.
How are your Eleven Plus tutors vetted?
We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed, has their ID and qualifications checked, and must have a valid DBS certificate. We look for tutors who are not only subject experts but also brilliant, caring communicators.
How much do online 11+ tutors for students in Sheffield cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which typically range from £25 to £50 per hour depending on their experience. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget without any hidden costs.
How often should my child have tutoring sessions for the 11+?
Most students have one session a week, which provides a great rhythm for learning new concepts and consolidating them with practice. However, it's completely flexible. You can discuss what's best for your child directly with your chosen tutor.
What technology do we need for an online lesson?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complex software to install.
Can a tutor help with my child's confidence and exam anxiety?
This is one of the most important things a tutor can do. A great tutor builds a child's confidence by breaking down challenging topics into manageable steps and celebrating their progress. This preparation and feeling of competence is often the best antidote to exam day nerves.
Beyond the Eleven Plus, can my child get help with other subjects?
Yes, definitely. We have expert tutors for over 300 subjects, from core GCSE and A-Level subjects like Maths and Science to languages, musical instruments, and even coding. We're here to support your child throughout their entire learning journey.
How do we find the right tutor for our child?
You can use the filters on our website to search for tutors by subject and availability. Read their profiles and reviews from other parents to get a feel for their teaching style. You can also message tutors before booking to ask any questions you might have.
How often should my child have tutoring sessions for the 11+?
Many tutors do. They often provide tailored resources, practice questions, and follow-up activities to reinforce what was covered in the lesson. It's a great idea to discuss your expectations with your tutor so they can plan accordingly.
