Michael B
Friendly, enthusiastic English Tutor
I absolutely love what I do, and channel that enthusiasm within each of my lessons. I believe a child can very easily see if a teacher is passionate about what they are teaching, which is why I believe only those who absolutely love their profession should teach. I want to provide the most engaging and challenging lesson for myself, because I hold very high standards for my quality of work, but more importantly, for the child. I want a child to leave each session safe in the knowledge that they have learnt something new that day.I like to approach each session differently, learning what interests...

Ben D
Ben is an amazing tutor, he’s really got my step son who has Asperger’s to engage, lessons are planned and structured, post lesson feedback given which really helps as I can send it over to his mom after his lesson and know what he needs to revise. Definitely a worthwhile investment in my step sons future!

Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
There's a lot of academic pressure in Kirkham. How can a tutor help my child manage this?
A tutor does more than just teach; they act as a mentor. By creating a calm, supportive space, they can help your child break down challenging topics into manageable steps. This builds their confidence and reduces anxiety, allowing them to approach their English studies with a more positive mindset.
My child hopes to study at a university like Lancaster or Manchester. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experts in developing the higher-level analytical and essay-writing skills that top universities look for. They can help your child learn how to craft sophisticated arguments and articulate their ideas clearly, which is excellent preparation for A-Levels and university applications.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few tutors who have experience with your child's specific exam board and learning goals, then sending them a message to see who feels like the best fit.
What if my child doesn't click with their first English tutor?
We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. 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 online English tutor cost in Kirkham?
Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on experience and level of study. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete flexibility.
How do I know the tutors are qualified and safe?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor undergoes a rigorous vetting process, including identity and background checks, to ensure they are highly qualified and safe to work with children.
How do online lessons actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn directly from their tutor, no matter where you are.
My child lacks confidence in English. Can tutoring help with that?
Yes, building confidence is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. In a private setting, your child can ask questions without feeling self-conscious. Celebrating small wins and mastering difficult topics with their tutor's guidance can transform how they feel about the subject.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard session length is one hour, which most parents and students find works perfectly. However, you can discuss different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor to find what best suits your child's concentration and your family's schedule.
Do you offer tutoring for subjects other than English, or for hobbies like learning the guitar?
We do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects. Whether your child needs help with Maths and Science, wants to learn a new language, or is keen to pick up a musical instrument, you can find a brilliant tutor on our platform.
How quickly can my child see an improvement in their results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach is designed for real progress. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The focus on your child's specific needs helps them grasp concepts faster and build confidence from the very first session.
