Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to go to One sixth form in Ipswich. Can a tutor help them get the required GCSE English grade?

Absolutely. Many parents in Ipswich share this goal. Our tutors are experienced in helping students secure the strong GCSE English grades needed for entry into competitive sixth forms. They can focus on specific areas of the curriculum to build your child's skills and confidence ahead of their exams.

Are your tutors familiar with the curriculum taught in Ipswich schools like Northgate or Kesgrave?

While our tutors are based across the UK, they are all experts in the national curriculum for England, covering all major exam boards like AQA and Edexcel. They can tailor sessions to the specific texts and topics your child is studying at their school, ensuring the support is perfectly aligned with what they're learning in the classroom.

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

It's a really personal choice. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings 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 we don't click with the 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 an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price on our search page to find someone who fits your budget. All costs are clearly displayed on their profile with no hidden fees.

Are the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

Sometimes, a lack of confidence is the biggest barrier to learning. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. A great tutor celebrates small wins and helps them see their own progress, which can make a huge difference to their self-esteem.

My child really struggles with essay writing. Can a tutor focus on that?

Definitely. That's one of the main benefits of one-to-one tuition. The tutor can dedicate entire sessions to helping your child structure arguments, analyse quotes effectively, and improve their writing style, providing targeted feedback that makes a real difference.

What happens in a typical online English lesson?

Lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat and an interactive whiteboard. A tutor might use the whiteboard to analyse a poem together, work through practice exam questions, or collaboratively plan an essay, all tailored to your child's learning goals.

Can a tutor help with both English Language and English Literature?

Yes, most of our English tutors are highly experienced in teaching both GCSE English Language and Literature. You can see their specific areas of expertise on their profiles and discuss your child's needs with them directly.

How long are the sessions?

The standard session length is one hour, which most students find is the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor if needed.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like guitar or coding?

While we're well known for academic support, we believe in learning for life! We have a huge range of tutors who can help your child explore a new hobby, from learning to play the guitar or piano to getting started with a new language or coding.
