Sam H
I started working with Sam quite late in the A-Level year, but despite the limited time he put in so much effort and support. He completely rebuilt my confidence in English Language and helped take me from a B to an A — the first A I’d ever achieved in English, and I got it in my actual A-Levels. He had me writing answers every week and always gave incredibly thorough, clear feedback that really helped me improve quickly. I genuinely wouldn’t have achieved my grade without him and can’t recommend him enough.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for Greenhead College. Can a tutor help with the specific GCSE English grades needed?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors are very experienced in helping students achieve the high grades required for competitive colleges like Greenhead. They can focus on the specific skills your child needs to strengthen, from essay technique to textual analysis, to help them feel confident and prepared for their exams.
We live in Huddersfield. Can a tutor also help prepare my child for A-Levels and a Russell Group university like Leeds or Manchester?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors can provide support right through your child's education. A strong foundation at GCSE is the first step, and many tutors continue working with students through their A-Levels, helping them develop the independent study skills and deep subject knowledge needed to thrive at top universities.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can view each tutor's profile to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. It's all about finding a great personality match for your child.
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 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 an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own prices based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, with no hidden costs or fees.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple and secure. Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
Can a tutor help my child with their confidence, not just their grades?
This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. In a supportive, patient environment, your child can ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. This personal attention often leads to a fantastic boost in their self-belief and enthusiasm for the subject.
Are your tutors qualified to teach GCSE English?
Yes. We have a strict vetting process and only accept 1 in 8 applicants. Many of our English tutors are qualified teachers, examiners, or graduates from top universities with extensive experience in the GCSE curriculum.
How are your tutors background-checked?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every UK-based tutor must provide an enhanced DBS check and professional references before they can join our platform. We verify every tutor to ensure you can have complete peace of mind.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that a one-hour lesson each week works best, especially in the run-up to exams. However, it's completely flexible and you can arrange a schedule that works for your child and your family with your chosen tutor.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
While we offer fantastic support for academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. From learning a new language or a musical instrument like the guitar, to practical skills like coding, there's a tutor for almost every interest.
How quickly will we see an improvement in my child's results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the focused, one-to-one attention means progress can happen quickly. The key is consistency. Many parents tell us they notice a difference in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions.
