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!

My child hopes to study at Queen Mary University of London. Can a tutor help with the language requirements?
Absolutely. Many of our English as a Foreign Language tutors have experience helping students prepare for university-level study, including the specific English language proficiency tests required by institutions like Queen Mary. They can help your child build the academic language skills they need to succeed in their application and on their course.
We're worried about our child keeping up in their competitive Tower Hamlets school. How can a tutor help?
This is a common concern, and where one-to-one tutoring really helps. A tutor provides a supportive environment where your child can build fluency at their own pace, away from classroom pressures. They can work on the specific vocabulary for subjects like Science or History, helping your child access the full curriculum and feel more confident participating in class.
How do I choose the right English as a Foreign Language tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. Many tutors offer a short introductory chat to see if they are a good fit for your child's personality and learning style. It's all about finding someone your child feels comfortable with.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking English?
One-to-one 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. Tutors are patient and skilled at building a rapport that helps even shy children feel more comfortable and confident.
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. It's designed to be simple and engaging, allowing your child to learn from the comfort of your home.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we're here to help with core academics like English, Maths, and Science, your child can also learn a musical instrument like the guitar, explore coding with Python, or even learn a new language for fun.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child's schedule and concentration span.
How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?
You can get started very quickly. Many parents find the right tutor and book their first lesson on the same day. You can message tutors directly to ask about their availability and arrange a time that works for your family.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in speaking English?
