Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child hopes to apply to a top London university like LSE or Imperial. Can a tutor help with this?

They can help your child master the sophisticated academic language and essay-writing skills needed for personal statements and interviews at London's most competitive institutions.

How do I find the right English as a Foreign Language tutor for my child?

It’s easy. You can use our search filters to find tutors with the right experience, for example, those who specialise in GCSE or A-Level support. You can read their profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents to find the perfect fit for your child.

How can a tutor help my child move from conversational to academic English?

Our tutors specialise in this. They work with your child to build subject-specific vocabulary, understand complex sentence structures, and develop formal writing and analytical skills. They use materials relevant to your child's school subjects to make learning practical and effective.

Are your tutors qualified to teach English for academic purposes?

Yes. Many of our tutors are qualified teachers or subject-matter experts with specific experience in teaching English for academic contexts. We vet every tutor's profile and qualifications, accepting only 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
