Holly E
Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're aiming for The Crypt School or Sir Thomas Rich's. Can I find a tutor with experience in the Gloucestershire Grammar School Entrance Test?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ and entrance exam preparation. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in the Gloucestershire test, verbal reasoning, and reading comprehension to give your child the focused support they need.
Are the tutors familiar with the curriculum taught in Innsworth schools?
While our tutors are based across the UK, they are all experts in the National Curriculum. Many have specific experience with the exam boards and learning goals relevant to schools in Gloucestershire and can tailor their approach to what your child is learning in the classroom.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
The best way is to read tutor profiles, check their qualifications, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs, like preparing for the grammar school entrance exam, to ensure they're a great fit.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. 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 much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can easily filter by price to find an expert tutor who fits your family's budget.
How can an online tutor help my child with their reading comprehension?
A tutor can work one-to-one with your child on specific techniques to break down difficult texts, understand context, and identify key information. They can use practice papers and targeted exercises to build your child's confidence and speed, which is especially helpful for timed exams.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We also personally interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, ensuring your child is learning from experienced and trusted professionals.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for drawing and sharing notes, and a document editor. It’s a secure and engaging space for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in detail without losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.
My child is losing confidence in English. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the confidence boost it provides. A great tutor creates a patient and positive learning space where your child feels safe to make mistakes and ask questions, which helps them rebuild their self-belief.
How many lessons will my child need to prepare for their exam?
This really depends on your child's starting point and their goals. Some students just need a few sessions to polish their exam technique, while others benefit from regular weekly lessons over several months. You can discuss a plan with your chosen tutor during your first session.
Is this just for academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Beyond core academics like English, Maths, and Science, your child can learn a musical instrument like the guitar, a new language, or even practical skills like coding. There's a tutor for almost any interest.
