Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Brilliant English tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child wants to go to St Augustine's Sixth Form. Can a tutor help them get the Grade 6+ they need in English?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students move from a standard pass to the higher grades (6-9) needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on exam technique and analytical skills to help your child secure the results they need for their chosen A-Level courses.
We're considering the Salisbury grammar schools. Can a tutor help prepare my child for that level of study?
Yes. You can find tutors with specific experience in preparing students for the academic rigour of grammar school. They can help build the strong foundation and critical thinking skills in English that are essential for success in that environment. You can even filter for tutors with this specific experience.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents – we have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking to ensure you find the perfect match.
How much does online English tuition cost in Westbury?
Our tutors set their own rates, which typically start from around £15 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You'll find all the pricing information clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship 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.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, there are no silly questions. A tutor can patiently go over topics until your child feels secure, celebrate their small wins, and give them the tools to tackle challenging texts and exam questions on their own.
What happens in a typical online English lesson?
Lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat and an interactive whiteboard. A tutor might work through a past paper with your child, use the whiteboard to break down the structure of an essay, or analyse key quotes from a set text like 'An Inspector Calls' together.
How quickly will we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our focused, one-to-one approach is designed for progress. Many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve their academic performance by at least one grade.
How does the online classroom work?
It's a simple and secure video platform designed for learning. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a webcam and a stable internet connection. You can chat, share documents, and work together on the interactive whiteboard, just as if you were in the same room.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we love helping students with subjects like English and Maths, we're here to support all kinds of learning. You can find expert tutors for hobbies and professional skills too, from learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to mastering coding languages like Python.
Can we get help with specific parts of the GCSE English course?
Yes, that's one of the main benefits of one-to-one tuition. If your child is struggling with the poetry anthology or needs to brush up on their creative writing skills for the exam, their tutor can dedicate entire sessions to that specific area until they feel confident.
