I have worked with many children, helping them to achieve success in SATs, school entrance exams or to gain increased confidence and enjoyment of their subjects in school.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're aiming for Skipton Girls' High School. Can I find a tutor with 11+ entrance exam experience?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have specific experience helping children build the comprehension, creative writing, and grammar skills needed for grammar school entrance exams. You can check each tutor's profile for their experience and even message them to discuss your child's needs before booking.

My child is worried about their GCSE English grades. Can a tutor help them get what they need for A-Levels?

Definitely. Securing top GCSE grades in English Language and Literature is crucial for A-Level choices. A tutor can provide focused support on everything from essay structure and textual analysis to exam technique, helping your child gain the confidence and skills to achieve their target grades. In fact, we can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

The best way is to look at tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can filter by experience with specific levels, like 11+ or GCSE, and send a message to a few tutors to chat about your child's goals before you decide.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know how important the right fit is. 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?

Our tutors set their own prices based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, with no hidden costs or subscriptions.

How do online lessons actually work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents and past papers. It's a simple, effective, and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has an up-to-date DBS or background check. We also interview every tutor and only accept 1 in 8 applicants, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.

How can a tutor help my child with their confidence?

Sometimes, a lack of confidence is the biggest barrier to learning. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong. Tutors provide positive encouragement and celebrate small wins, which helps build self-esteem and a more positive approach to their studies.

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, it's completely flexible. You might want more frequent sessions in the run-up to an exam, or less frequent lessons for general support. You can discuss what's best with your child's tutor.

What results can I expect from tutoring?

Our goal is to help your child feel more confident and capable. While every child's journey is different, 90% of students on Tutorful improve by at least one grade. We're proud to have helped over 200,000 students achieve their learning goals.

Is tutoring just for school subjects, or could my child learn something new?

It's for both! While we have thousands of expert tutors for academic subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also have tutors who can teach skills and hobbies. Your child could learn anything from creative writing and public speaking to playing the guitar or coding.

How do I book our first lesson?

It's simple! Once you've found a tutor you like, just send them a message to introduce yourself and your child. You can agree on a time for the first lesson and they will get it booked in for you. There are no sign-up fees or contracts.
