Holly E
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.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to Suffolk One. Can a tutor help them secure the right English GCSE grade?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and know exactly what's needed to hit those higher grades. They can work with your child on specific areas of weakness to build their skills and confidence ahead of their exams, giving them the best possible chance of meeting the entry requirements for competitive sixth forms.
We're concerned about the step up from Kesgrave High School to A-Levels. Can a tutor help?
Yes, this is a common concern and a great time to get support. A tutor can help your child master the more advanced skills needed for A-Level English, such as deeper critical analysis and independent thinking. This can make the transition much smoother and less stressful for them.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking your first session to ensure it's a great match.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts, so you have complete flexibility.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a stable internet connection, a webcam, and a microphone.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. 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.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All of our tutors have been interviewed and have had their ID and qualifications verified. They also undergo a background check before they can start tutoring on our platform.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe and supportive environment where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As they start to master topics they once found tricky, you'll see their self-belief and enthusiasm for the subject grow.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to ask questions or discuss their development. Many parents tell us they see a positive change in their child's confidence and attitude towards their studies after just a few sessions.
How long should a lesson be?
Most lessons are an hour long, which is usually enough time to dive into a topic without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor to find what works best for your child.
Do you offer tutoring for skills other than school subjects?
Yes, we do! While we have experts across the school curriculum, you can also find tutors for a wide range of other skills, including learning a musical instrument like the guitar, coding languages like Python, or even creative writing.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
Life happens, we get it. You can easily cancel or reschedule a lesson through the platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, as per our cancellation policy.
