I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities.

I’ve been taking English lessons since May 2024 to improve my skills, and I couldn’t be more pleased with Eleanor. She has extensive experience teaching English to non-native speakers, having lived in multiple countries. This global perspective makes her exceptionally skilled at understanding the challenges we face when learning English.
What I appreciate most is how she tailors each lesson based on my progress, adjusting the content to ensure that it aligns with what I need to work on. She also uses a variety of teaching tools that make the lessons engaging and diverse, which keeps me motivated and excited to learn.
Her patience is unmatched, and she always takes the time to discuss the topics I want to focus on. Whether it’s specific areas I need to improve or particular subjects I’m interested in, she’s always accommodating.
I highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their English skills – she’s been a fantastic teacher!

Brilliant English as a Foreign Language EFL tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child hopes to go to Bolton Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help them get the right GCSE English grade?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are very experienced in helping students prepare for their GCSEs. They can focus on the specific skills your child needs to improve their English grade, giving them the best possible chance of meeting the entry requirements for excellent local colleges like Bolton Sixth Form College.
We live in Bolton, but can we choose a tutor from anywhere in the UK?
Yes, you can! That's one of the great benefits of online tutoring. You have access to the best English as a Foreign Language tutors from across the UK, not just those based locally in Bolton. This gives you a much wider choice to find the perfect match for your child's personality and learning needs.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right fit, simply email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
My child needs help with English specifically for their other subjects, like Science. Can a tutor do that?
Yes, definitely. This is a common goal for many families. You can find a tutor who can specifically focus on building the academic vocabulary your child needs for subjects like Science, History, or Geography, helping them to better understand their textbooks and class discussions.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills like coding or playing the guitar?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we love helping students with academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have amazing tutors who can teach hobbies and professional skills, from learning a musical instrument to coding and graphic design.
How do I pick the right English as a Foreign Language tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute 'meet the tutor' call, which is a great way to chat about your child's goals and see if it's a good fit before booking a lesson.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident speaking English in class?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe and encouraging space for your child to practice speaking without the pressure of a full classroom. Tutors can work on pronunciation, conversation skills, and vocabulary, building your child's confidence so they feel more comfortable participating in school.
How much does an English as a Foreign Language tutor cost in Bolton?
The price varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced tutor who fits within your family's budget.
How does online tutoring work? What do we need?
It's simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom, which includes an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space to share documents.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check and has been interviewed by our team. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
How do 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, however, is often seeing your child's confidence grow and hearing them talk more positively about their schoolwork.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident speaking English in class?
This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students have a few lessons to prepare for a specific exam, while others benefit from regular weekly sessions throughout the school year to build their skills and confidence over time. You can discuss this with your chosen tutor.
