You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. We recommend watching their introduction videos and messaging a few to find someone your child will get on with. It's all about finding the right personality fit for your child.

Q: How can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. We have a strict vetting process: every tutor has been interviewed, had their ID checked, and undergone a background check. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.

Q: What happens 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.

Q: My child has lost their confidence in English. Can a tutor help?

This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us, and it's where one-to-one tutoring can make the biggest difference. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement, helping them rebuild their self-belief one step at a time.

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. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete control over what you spend.

Q: How do online lessons work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools, making it easy for your child and their tutor to work through problems together, just as they would in person.

Q: How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with our tutors. The real magic is often seeing their confidence grow, which can happen after just a few sessions.

Q: What happens in a typical English tutoring session?

The tutor will tailor the session to your child's specific needs. It might involve going over a tricky piece of homework, practising exam questions, analysing a poem together, or planning an essay. The focus is always on what will help your child make the most progress.

Lee N

Lee has been a great tutor for our 15-year-old son, Leo. He’s really helped him with structuring his essays and breaking things down in a way that makes it much easier for Leo to understand and apply in his school work. What’s made the biggest difference though is Lee himself. He has a really great personality and a relaxed way of teaching that puts Leo at ease straight away. Leo feels comfortable being himself in the sessions, which means he’s much more open to asking questions and having a go. Since starting with Lee, Leo’s confidence with English has grown a lot and he’s actually started enjoying the subject again. The support and encouragement Lee gives has been really valuable for him in preparation for his GCSE's.

Flora is patient and takes the time to ensure my child understands concepts properly before moving on. She always comes well prepared, communicates effectively with my son, and explains things clearly. She also takes time to prepare homework assignments and resource materials to reinforce learning. She’s easy to reach and is happy to chat with parents about progress and the ways we can support learning at home. My son enjoys her teaching and is happy to add one more lesson a week with Flora. I’d gladly recommend her to others looking for a solid tutor.
