Eleanor J
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!

asked questions

Many secondary schools in Edmonton are very competitive. Can a tutor help my child keep up?
Absolutely. A tutor provides personalised, one-to-one support that isn't always possible in a busy classroom. They can help your child master the specific academic language needed for all their subjects, ensuring they don't just keep up, but feel confident and prepared to participate fully.
My goal is for my child to get into a top sixth form or a good local college. Can a tutor support this?
Yes. Our tutors are experienced in helping students build the academic foundations needed for the next step. By strengthening their academic English, your child will be better equipped to achieve the strong GCSE grades required for entry into competitive sixth form and college programmes.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Is Tutorful just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills too?
While we offer fantastic support for academic subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills! Your child could learn anything from coding and guitar to a new language or even public speaking.

You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their experience. You can also message tutors before you book to discuss your child's specific needs and make sure it feels like a great fit.
