From the Kent Test to University: Why English is Key to Your Child's Success
Strong English skills are the foundation for success in almost every other subject. The ability to understand a complex text and write a compelling story for the 11+ directly translates into the skills needed to analyse a Shakespeare play like *Macbeth* at GCSE or craft a persuasive essay for A-Levels. These are precisely the communication and critical thinking abilities that top universities and future employers look for, opening up a world of opportunities for your child.

Ben H
Engaging English tutor
I firmly believe that teaching is a two-way process. Whether I'm in a classroom or online, I will create a dialogue so the pupils/tutees feel involved in the process and are able to question, inquire and verbalise what we are learning. Very few people learn by being told something once, so my tutoring sessions are generally about discovery, mastery and learning side by side to answer the big questions along with my years of expertise providing the content.I have worked in education for 12 years in all sorts of settings, with a huge range of pupils. My track record is impressive and I firmly believe...

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

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the Kent Test for Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School. Can I find a tutor with this experience?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ and entrance exam preparation, including the Kent Test. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in this area and even mention it in your introductory message to them.
We live in Faversham. Does my child's tutor have to be local?
Because all our lessons are online, you can connect with the very best tutors from across the UK, not just in Faversham. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists, including those with extensive experience in grammar school entrance exams, ensuring you find the perfect match for your child.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. 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 do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
A great place to start is by reading the tutor profiles and parent reviews. Look for tutors who have experience with your child's age group and specific goals, like preparing for the 11+. We recommend messaging a few tutors to find someone your child will feel comfortable with.
My child has lost their confidence in English. How can a tutor help?
This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where there are no wrong questions. They can break down difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and help your child rediscover their enjoyment for the subject, rebuilding their self-belief step by step.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of demand. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced background check before they can teach on our platform. We are also very selective, only accepting 1 in every 8 tutors who apply.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, so your child and their tutor can work together just as they would in person. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
How long are the lessons and how often should we have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find a weekly session works best to build momentum and keep learning consistent, but you can arrange a schedule that works for you directly with your tutor. For specific goals like exam preparation, you might decide on more frequent sessions.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something different like coding or playing the guitar?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn a new language, master an instrument like the guitar, or explore skills like coding and graphic design, you can find an expert tutor to help them pursue their passion.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss how things are going. The biggest sign of progress is often seeing your child's confidence grow and hearing them talk more positively about their learning.
What happens if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
We understand that life can be unpredictable. You can easily cancel or reschedule a lesson through the platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, as our tutors have a 24-hour cancellation policy.
