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
We're aiming for a Solihull grammar school. Can a tutor help my child with the 11+ English and verbal reasoning sections?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation. They can provide targeted support to help your child understand the specific question styles and build the vocabulary and comprehension skills needed for both the English and verbal reasoning papers.
My child attends a great comprehensive like Tudor Grange Academy, but I'm worried they'll struggle to keep up in subjects like History or Science. Can a tutor help?
Yes, this is a common concern and where our tutors can really help. They can work with your child to build the specific academic English needed for other subjects, helping them understand complex terminology in science or structure arguments in a history essay, ensuring they can participate fully in every class.
My child is preparing for A-Levels. Can a tutor help them get into a university like Warwick or Birmingham?
Definitely. Our A-Level tutors, many of whom are graduates from top universities themselves, can help your child master their subjects and develop the higher-level analytical and writing skills that admissions tutors at competitive universities like Warwick and Birmingham are looking for.
How do I choose the right English language tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking a lesson to ensure you find the perfect match.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does an English As A Foreign Language tutor cost in Solihull?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, with no hidden fees.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is ID and background-checked before they can join Tutorful. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's development. You can also message them at any time to discuss progress. Many parents tell us they see a big difference not just in their child's work, but in their overall confidence at school.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
Can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking English?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. The lessons provide a safe and encouraging space for your child to practise speaking without the fear of making mistakes in front of a whole class. This can have a huge impact on their confidence.
How long should each tutoring session be?
Most sessions are an hour long, which is usually perfect for covering a topic in detail without losing focus. However, you can discuss your child's needs with your tutor and agree on a session length that works best for them.
Are the tutors background-checked?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or pick up a new language for fun, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their passions.
