Finding the right one-to-one support can make all the difference. An expert English tutor can partner with you and your child, building the confidence and skills they need to analyse complex texts, write compelling essays, and achieve the grades they deserve.

Jeremy B
English Tutor (Daytime & Evening)
I’m an experienced online English tutor. I’ve been tutoring online for many years. I’ve also worked as a Learning Support Assistant (Teaching Assistant) offline.I frequently help students to learn how to read, write and think. In addition to this, for the vast majority of the time, I do help students to improve their grades. However, a willingness from the student to work both during our lessons and outside of our lessons is a necessity. If that willingness is not there, there is only so much I can do. Therefore I demand this willingness. I’m not strict and authoritarian. I’m relaxed and patie...

David J
Experienced English Tutor
When it comes to History, I have always loved the subject, leading me to secure my place at the University of Leeds and to follow through my degree and gain a 2:1. While doing so, I had a fantastic time living in Leeds, which is why I came back to live here. My focus was on the British Empire, but having studied History all the way through school and university, my experience with the subject is very broad. For example I studied Britain from 1880-1980 and Nazi Germany at A Level, and American foreign policy and race relations and the Russian Revolution at GCSE. History is one of the most important...

Lesley H
We cannot recommend Lesley highly enough. From the very beginning, she built a wonderful rapport with our daughter and helped her develop both her English skills and, just as importantly, her confidence. Her lessons were engaging, supportive and tailored to our daughter's needs, making a real difference to her progress.
Our daughter was delighted with her exam results, and we genuinely believe that Lesley's teaching played a significant part in this success. Her ability to explain concepts clearly, encourage independent thinking and create a positive learning environment has been invaluable.
We feel incredibly fortunate to have found Lesley and are so grateful for the time, effort and dedication she has invested in helping our daughter achieve her potential. We would not hesitate to recommend her to other families looking for an outstanding English tutor.

Her patience was undoubtedly one of the first thing i noticed about her tutoring, and as a consequence, I was able to learn at a pace that felt most comfortable to me! Equally her style of tutoring and constant pushing of me to go further for A level English is something i couldnt have asked for more of!!Thank you Aileen, it has been a pleasure having you as a tutor :)

Flora I
My son started online English lessons with Flora at the end of February 2026, and we have been extremely pleased with his progress since then.
He genuinely enjoys his lessons and always finds them engaging, helpful, and well structured. Flora has built his confidence in English and has helped him develop both his writing skills and understanding of the subject.
The improvement has been clearly reflected in his Year 10 school exam results, where he has achieved significantly better scores than before. It is evident that Flora's teaching has had a very positive impact on his learning.
We are delighted with the progress he has made and would highly recommend Flora to anyone looking for an excellent English tutor.
Thank you, Flora!

Iman is an excellent adaptive English Tutor. My 16-year-old son has a significant hearing loss and uses two hearing aids. Iman used clear speech for lip-reading, was patient, encouraging, and always ensured my son fully grasped a concept before moving on.
Thanks to Iman my son felt much more confident to face the GCSE examinations. We are very grateful! We highly recommend Iman.

asked questions

Absolutely. A private tutor provides a calm, supportive space where your child can ask questions they might not feel comfortable asking in a busy classroom. They can break down difficult topics, from Shakespeare to unseen poetry, at your child's pace, helping them build confidence and feel in control of their learning.
