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
See all FAQs
We're aiming for a top Wimbledon school like King's College School. Can a tutor help my child with the specific English language requirements?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students prepare for the entrance exams and interviews for highly competitive independent and grammar schools. They can help your child master the specific vocabulary, grammar, and comprehension skills needed to demonstrate their academic potential.
My child is struggling to make friends at their new school in Wimbledon. Can a tutor help with their conversational English?
Yes, this is a wonderful way to use tutoring. A tutor can create a relaxed, friendly space for your child to practise their conversational skills. They can work on pronunciation, learn common phrases and idioms, and build the confidence to start conversations and feel more included in social situations.
How do I choose the right English As A Foreign Language tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free before booking. Look for someone whose experience matches your child's goals and whose teaching style you think your child will respond to. With a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews, you're sure to find a great match.
How do you ensure tutors are safe to work with children?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor must have a valid DBS check and provide professional references. We interview every tutor and only accept 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right personal connection is key to learning. That's why we have our 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 much does an English As A Foreign Language tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary based on their experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or complicated contracts.
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 your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As they start to understand concepts they previously found tricky, their self-belief grows. This newfound confidence often extends beyond English and into their other subjects and school life.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's English?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the benefit of one-to-one tutoring is that it's completely focused on their needs, which often leads to faster progress. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions.
Do you only offer academic subjects?
Not at all! While we support core subjects like English, Maths, and Science from primary up to degree level, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn anything from coding or public speaking to playing the guitar.
Can a tutor help my child with their regular school homework?
Yes, many parents find tutoring is a great way to get support with homework. A tutor can help your child understand difficult assignments, work through problems, and develop better study habits, turning homework from a chore into a positive learning experience.
How do online lessons work?
Many of our tutors have experience working with students with specific learning needs, such as dyslexia or ADHD. You can use the filters on our search page to find tutors with this experience and can message them for free to discuss your child's specific requirements before booking.
