Creative English tutor
I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities. I am very keen to help pupils to learn and fully understand what they might not get in a classroom environment. Whilst at school and even at university, I had one-on-one help and I would not have got the grades if it was not for this extra help. That is why I want to help those who may need the extra help to get the grades they want.I did my A levels at a school as opposed to a college and this gave me the experience to work with the lower parts of the school (junior and senior). I would help...

Professional English tutor
Hi, my name is Carole. I worked as a primary school teacher for 19 years and I have been tutoring children from reception to year 8, mainly online, since February 2020. I have worked with many children, helping them to achieve success in SATs, school entrance exams or to gain increased confidence and enjoyment of their subjects in school. I had some recent feedback from a parent, stating that their child had "gone from being scared of maths (and trying to hide it by saying maths is boring) to loving it!" Some of my current students have worked with me for several years, continuing after primary...

John H
Experienced English tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is preparing for the 11+ for Bacup and Rawtenstall Grammar School. Can a tutor help?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation. They can help your child get to grips with verbal reasoning, improve their comprehension skills, and build the confidence they need to perform their best in the entrance exam.

How can a tutor help my child get into a top university like Manchester or Lancaster?

A strong English A-Level is often a key requirement for top universities. Our tutors can help your child master the skills needed for top GCSE and A-Level grades, from detailed textual analysis to writing compelling essays, strengthening their university application.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few 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 how important the right fit 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.

How can a tutor help my child with their GCSE English grades?

Our tutors can make a real difference. They focus on the specific areas your child finds tricky, whether it's Shakespeare or unseen poetry. They can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades, giving them a much stronger foundation for their A-Level choices.

Are the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is ID and background-checked before they can teach on our platform. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

How much does an online English tutor cost in Haslingden?

Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £25 to £50 per hour, depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can see each tutor's rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.

How do online lessons actually work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, so your child and their tutor can work through problems together just as they would in person. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

Can tutoring help my child feel more confident?

Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the confidence boost it provides. In a supportive environment, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed, which helps them build self-belief that they take back into the school classroom.

What happens in the first lesson?

The first session is usually about getting to know each other. The tutor will chat with your child about what they enjoy, what they find difficult in English, and what they want to achieve. It's a relaxed way to build a good relationship from the start.

How long will it be before we see an improvement?

Every child learns at their own pace, but many parents tell us they see a change in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. Consistent weekly lessons are the best way to build momentum and see steady progress in their schoolwork.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn to play the guitar, get help with university applications, or even learn a new language.
