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 B
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 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.

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with the specific requirements for A-Level courses at Bridgwater & Taunton College?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for specific colleges. They can focus on the GCSE English skills needed to secure a grade 6 or above, ensuring your child has the best chance of getting a place on their desired A-Level course.
My child has aspirations for universities like Bristol or Exeter. Can tutoring now help with that?
Yes, building a strong foundation now is key. A high grade in GCSE English is often a prerequisite for top universities, regardless of the degree subject. A tutor can help your child develop the analytical and communication skills that will not only help them excel at GCSE and A-Level but also stand out in their university applications.
What happens 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 for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
There are so many tutors. How do I choose the right one for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few tutors who have experience with your child's specific goals—for example, GCSE English Language—and then sending them a message to see who feels like the best fit.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. This transparency allows you to find an expert tutor who fits your budget, with no hidden fees.
My child's confidence has taken a knock. Can a tutor help with that?
Building confidence is at the heart of what our tutors do. A one-to-one setting provides a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. Celebrating small wins and mastering tricky topics together can make a huge difference to their self-belief.
How do online lessons actually 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. It's a simple and effective way to learn from the comfort of your own home.
My child is quite shy. Will online tutoring work for them?
Many parents find online tutoring is perfect for shyer children. The one-to-one setting can feel less intimidating than a busy classroom, allowing them to build a rapport with their tutor and open up at their own pace.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most students have one lesson per week, as this provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be discussed with your tutor. You might choose to have more sessions in the run-up to an important exam.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS check. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a wide range of other skills. You can find expert tutors for everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to coding languages like Python or even public speaking.
What kind of results can we realistically expect?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our goal is to help them make real, measurable progress. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. For GCSEs, the right support can even help improve results by up to two grades.
