Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to go to Cornwall College. Can a tutor help them secure the English grade they need?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for specific colleges. They can focus on the exact skills and knowledge needed to achieve a Grade 4, 5, or higher in GCSE English, giving your child the best chance of securing their place.
Are the tutors familiar with the curriculum taught at schools in Camborne?
While our tutors are based across the UK, they are all experts in the national curriculum for England, which is followed by schools like Camborne Science and International Academy. They are highly experienced in preparing students for the same AQA, Edexcel, and OCR exams your child will be sitting.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the perfect fit 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, simply email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications on their profile. You can also message them before booking to discuss your child's needs. It's all about finding someone your child will feel comfortable learning with.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete control over what you spend.
Can tutoring really help my child's confidence?
Yes, it's one of the biggest benefits we see. In a one-to-one setting, your child gets the space to ask questions and work at their own pace. This personalised attention and encouragement from a supportive tutor often leads to a huge boost in self-belief.
How do the online lessons work?
Lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing, making it easy for your child and their tutor to work together. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How do you make sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked, and we interview them to ensure they have the right experience and a passion for teaching. We're very selective – we only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to our platform.
How often should my child have a lesson?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Most families start with one lesson a week, especially in the run-up to exams, but you can arrange sessions as frequently or infrequently as you need. You can discuss the best approach with your chosen tutor.
What kind of results can we expect?
Every child learns differently, but our approach gets great results. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. We focus on building both understanding and confidence, which makes a real difference in exam performance and beyond.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have experts for core subjects, we also have talented tutors who can teach a wide range of skills, from learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish to coding in Python. It's all about helping your child discover new passions.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started today! Simply search for English tutors, find one you like, and send them a message to arrange your first lesson. Many tutors can start within a day or two, providing support for your child right when they need it.
