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 at John Kyrle. Can a tutor help them aim for the top sets in English?
Yes, this is a very common goal for parents we work with. A tutor can provide targeted support to strengthen your child's core comprehension and analytical skills, building the confidence and ability they need to excel and secure a place in higher sets.
We live in Ross-on-Wye and are thinking about universities like Bristol or Cardiff. Can a tutor help with the personal statement?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have extensive experience helping students craft compelling personal statements for their UCAS applications. They can help your child structure their ideas, refine their writing, and showcase their strengths for competitive universities.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message them directly to ask questions. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If it's not the right fit, just 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?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check and we've verified their ID. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in English?
Confidence is key. A one-to-one tutor creates a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, they can rebuild your child's self-belief step by step.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum! Your child can learn anything from coding and music production to playing the guitar. We believe in learning for life, not just for exams.
How long are the sessions and how often should they be?
Most sessions are one hour long. Many families start with one session a week, but the frequency is completely up to you. You can discuss what's best for your child directly with your chosen tutor.
Can I track my child's progress?
Yes. You can message your child's tutor at any time to get feedback and updates on their progress. Many tutors provide a summary after each lesson to keep you in the loop.
What qualifications do your English tutors have?
Our tutors come from a wide range of backgrounds, including qualified teachers, examiners, and subject-matter experts with degrees from top UK universities. You can view each tutor's specific qualifications and experience on their profile.
