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!

How do I find the right English as a Foreign Language tutor for my child?
It's simple. You can use our search filters to find tutors with the right experience, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality. You can also message tutors before booking to ensure they're a great fit for your child's needs.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right connection is key to learning. 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.

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an experienced tutor who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden costs or complicated fees.
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 use conversation and targeted exercises to gently build fluency and confidence, which can make a huge difference to their social integration.

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play an instrument, get to grips with a coding language like Python, or develop any other hobby, you can find a specialist tutor to help them.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely up to you. You can discuss what's best for your child's goals with your chosen tutor.
Can I track my child's progress?
