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!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to apply to BHASVIC or Varndean College. Can a tutor help with the required level of English?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students reach the high standards needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on developing the advanced essay-writing skills, critical analysis, and sophisticated vocabulary that admissions tutors look for.
We live in Brighton and are aiming for the University of Sussex. Can a tutor help with this?
Yes. A tutor can provide invaluable support for university applications, from helping your child craft a compelling personal statement to practising the academic language skills they'll need for undergraduate study. They can tailor sessions to bridge the gap between school-level English and university expectations.
How do I choose the right English As A Foreign Language tutor for my child?
It's a great question! You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications and experience. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to explain your child's goals before booking. This helps you find someone who is a great fit for your child's personality and learning needs.
How much does an English As A Foreign Language tutor cost in Brighton?
The cost of tutoring varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Our tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can easily find an expert who fits within your budget.
How do I know the tutors are safe?
Your child's safety is our absolute priority. We interview every tutor and they must all have a valid DBS check or equivalent background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Our online classroom has lots of helpful features, including an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. A tutor might use the whiteboard to break down complex grammar, work through an essay plan together, or analyse a text in real-time. Each lesson is tailored to what your child needs to work on.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy to ask in class. As they see their skills improve and start to master tricky topics, their self-belief naturally grows. Our tutors are brilliant at celebrating small wins to build momentum.
How long are the sessions and how often should we have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find that one session a week is a great way to build momentum and see real progress, but you can arrange a schedule that works best for your child with your chosen tutor.
What happens if we don't like the first tutor we try?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match for your child. With 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.
Do I have to commit to a block of lessons?
No, there are no contracts or long-term commitments. You can book lessons one at a time or schedule a regular slot with your tutor. It's completely flexible to fit around your family's needs.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring for a huge range of subjects and skills beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to code in Python, play the guitar, or get help with a university module, you can find an expert tutor to help.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
You can start looking right away! Many of our tutors respond to messages quickly and have availability within the next few days. You can filter by availability to find someone who can start as soon as you need them.
