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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to a competitive sixth form like Wymondham College. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for selective schools and sixth forms. They can focus on strengthening the specific skills and exam techniques needed to achieve the high GCSE grades (7-9) that these institutions look for in English Language and Literature.
We're thinking ahead to university applications, like to UEA. How does GCSE tutoring help with that?
Strong GCSE English grades are a vital foundation for a competitive university application. They demonstrate the critical thinking and communication skills that universities like the University of East Anglia highly value. A tutor helps your child build this foundation now, setting them up for success in their A-Levels and beyond.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can view each tutor's profile to see their experience, qualifications, and an introductory video. Reading reviews from other parents is also a great way to get a feel for their teaching style. We recommend messaging a few tutors to find the best fit for your child's personality and learning needs.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match for your child. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an identity check and an enhanced DBS background check, before they can start teaching.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It's designed to be simple and engaging, allowing your child and their tutor to focus on learning.
My child has lost their confidence in English. Can a tutor help?
Building confidence is at the heart of what our tutors do. In a one-to-one setting, your child gets the patient, positive encouragement they need to ask questions and try new things without fear of making mistakes. This supportive environment makes a huge difference.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week works well for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange lessons as often as you need, whether that's a one-off session before an exam or more frequent lessons to catch up on a specific topic.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas! You can find tutors for modern languages, musical instruments like guitar and piano, and even practical skills like coding.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started today! Simply search for tutors, send a message to the ones you like, and you could have your child's first lesson booked within 24 hours. It’s that easy to arrange support.
What results can I expect?
While every child learns at their own pace, we're proud that 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade. For GCSEs specifically, we can often help students improve their results by up to two grades.
