The Right Support to Help Your Child Feel Confident in English
We believe the best learning happens when a tutor truly understands your child. That's why our tutors take the time to get to know them – their strengths, their worries, and how they learn best. This personal connection means they can tailor their teaching, turning 'I can't do this' into 'I understand'. Every online lesson is designed around your child's exact needs. If they're struggling with poetry analysis for their GCSEs, that's what the lesson will focus on. If they need to practise structuring their creative writing, their tutor will build a session around that. This targeted approach is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade. Finding the right support shouldn't add to your family's stress. With our online platform, you can find a brilliant, background-checked English tutor and arrange lessons that fit perfectly around school, clubs, and family life. All from the comfort of your home in Clayton-le-Moors.

Michael B
Friendly, enthusiastic English Tutor
I absolutely love what I do, and channel that enthusiasm within each of my lessons. I believe a child can very easily see if a teacher is passionate about what they are teaching, which is why I believe only those who absolutely love their profession should teach. I want to provide the most engaging and challenging lesson for myself, because I hold very high standards for my quality of work, but more importantly, for the child. I want a child to leave each session safe in the knowledge that they have learnt something new that day.I like to approach each session differently, learning what interests...

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 go to St Christopher's in Accrington. Can a tutor help them get the right GCSE English grade?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are GCSE specialists and have experience helping students secure the grades they need for their chosen sixth form. They can focus on the specific skills your child needs to improve, whether it's exam technique or understanding the marking criteria, to aim for that crucial grade 5 or higher.
We're hoping our child will eventually apply to a university like Lancaster or Manchester. How can tutoring now help with that?
Strong A-Level and GCSE grades are vital for applications to competitive universities. An English tutor can build a solid foundation of critical thinking and analytical skills that will not only help them through their GCSEs but will also be essential for success at A-Level and in their future university studies.
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 first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have experts for core subjects from Primary up to A-Level, we also have talented tutors who can teach a wide range of skills, from learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID verified. We also interview every applicant and are very selective – we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
My child's confidence in English is really low. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, building confidence is at the heart of what our tutors do. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Celebrating small wins and breaking down difficult topics into manageable steps can make a huge difference to their self-belief.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which typically start from £15 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
You can use our filters to narrow down tutors by experience, price, and availability. We recommend reading their profiles, checking their reviews from other parents, and watching their introductory videos. You can also message a few tutors beforehand to find the best match for your child's personality and learning needs.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson. There's an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space to share documents. It’s simple to use and means your child can learn effectively from the comfort of home.
How often should my child have a lesson?
This is completely flexible and depends on your child's goals. Most families start with one session a week, especially when preparing for exams like GCSEs. You can discuss what works best directly with your chosen tutor.
Can tutoring really improve my child's grades?
Yes, we see fantastic results. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. For GCSEs specifically, private tutoring can help improve your child's results by up to two grades, making a real impact on their future options.
What does my child need to prepare for their first lesson?
Nothing specific is required, but it’s helpful if your child can tell the tutor what they're currently working on at school or any specific topics they find tricky. The first session is usually about getting to know each other and setting some goals together.
