Lucy C
Experienced English Tutor - KS3, GCSE, A level, University
Welcome to my profile. I'm an experienced online tutor and examiner, who has been teaching English Language & Literature and Religious Studies online since 2013. I am a fully qualified teacher with a Post-Graduate Certificate in Education.While I am a passionate tutor of each of these two subjects individually, more importantly I feel that my experience in each subject contributes something to the other. For example, my knowledge of Biblical and Greek mythological references from my study of world religions is often really useful when interpreting certain texts by Shakespeare or other non-contemporary...

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!

Matthew has been teaching my son since September and he absolutely enjoys the lessons. He explains writing in a way my son can understand, and we’ve already seen a boost in his confidence.
Really friendly, patient, and supportive — we’re very happy with the progress so far. Highly recommend!

Holly E
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
We're aiming for a Warwickshire grammar school. Can a tutor help my child prepare for the 11+ English exam?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation. They can help your child build the specific vocabulary, comprehension, and reasoning skills needed for the entrance exams, giving them calm, confident support as they prepare.
My child is hoping for a place at Warwick or Birmingham. Can a tutor help them get the top GCSE English grade they need?
Yes. Our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and can provide focused support to help your child aim for the highest grades. They can work on everything from detailed text analysis to perfecting exam technique, which can help improve their results by up to two grades.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. 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 online English tutoring cost in Balsall Common?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary based on their experience and qualifications. You can see the cost clearly on each tutor's profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget with no hidden fees.
How can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all of them must have a valid DBS background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
My child has lost confidence in English. Can a tutor help with that?
Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the confidence boost it provides. A tutor creates a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement, celebrating small wins and helping them see their own progress.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
What happens in a typical one-to-one English lesson?
Every lesson is tailored to your child. A session might involve working through a tricky piece of homework, practising comprehension techniques for an upcoming exam, analysing a poem together, or planning out an essay. The tutor will focus on whatever will help your child most.
How long will it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our experience shows that consistent, personalised support makes a real difference. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something else?
While we cover all academic subjects from primary to degree level, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn anything from coding and guitar to a new language or public speaking.
How do I pay for lessons?
Paying for lessons is simple and secure. Your payment details are stored safely on your account, and you are only charged 24 hours after each lesson is complete. You can easily track all your payments and lesson history from your dashboard.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
