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...

Rachel B
Enthusiastic tutor of Food, Nutrition and English.
I have been teaching Food and Nutrition to GCSE standard in secondary schools for over 20 years. This has involved me planning, preparing and delivering both theory and practical lessons for students, always endeavouring to make the subject as fun and engaging as possible. Very often students opt for this subject at GCSE believing it is ' just cooking' but there is so much more to it than that! Particularly in recent times, the amount of food science content in the Food curriculum has really increased, and this can be quite daunting for students to get to grips with. I really enjoy helping them...

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.
