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 is aiming for a grammar school like Tiffin. Can a tutor help with the specific English demands?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors have specific experience helping students prepare for the high academic standards of UK grammar schools. They can focus on developing the advanced reading comprehension, vocabulary, and written skills your child will need to succeed.
We're worried English proficiency will be a barrier to a Russell Group university. How can a tutor help?
That's a common concern, and a tutor can make a significant difference. They can help your child master the academic English required for A-Levels and beyond, focusing on critical analysis, essay writing, and articulating complex ideas – all essential skills for a successful university application.
How do I choose the right English As A Foreign Language tutor for my child?
It's a partnership, so finding the right fit is key. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's specific needs. It helps you get a feel for their personality and teaching style before you book a lesson.
How much does an online EFL tutor cost in Kingston upon Thames?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and qualifications, so you can easily find an expert who fits your family's budget.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Each lesson is tailored to your child. Tutors use our online classroom, which has an interactive whiteboard, to work through everything from grammar exercises to analysing texts. Your child can ask questions in a safe, one-to-one setting, and sessions are recorded so they can review them anytime.
How do you make sure tutors are safe to work with my child?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is background-checked and must pass an interview to join our platform. We only accept 1 in 8 applicants, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.
What if we don't click with the first tutor we try?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have a 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.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, there's no fear of asking 'silly' questions. Tutors create a supportive space where your child can build their skills at their own pace, celebrating small wins along the way, which makes a huge difference to their self-esteem.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person?
Yes, for many families it's even better! With features like lesson recordings and an interactive whiteboard, learning becomes more flexible and engaging. Plus, you get access to the best tutors across the UK, not just those who live nearby.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we support core subjects for exams like GCSEs and A-Levels, we also have tutors for a huge range of skills and hobbies. Whether your child wants to learn to code, play the guitar, or speak a new language, we can help.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one 60-minute lesson per week is ideal for making steady progress without feeling overwhelmed. However, you can arrange lessons as often as you like – it's completely flexible and you can discuss the best approach with your chosen tutor.
What if we don't click with the first tutor we try?
We're proud to have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 customer reviews. Parents often tell us they appreciate the confidence boost our tutors give their children and the tangible progress they see in their schoolwork.
