Megan G
Megan is a wonderful tutor!
My son has really enjoyed the sessions with her and she adapts them to ensure he is fully understanding the teaching.
Megan provides an overview of feedback after to each session which allows me to understand what she has covered in the session and how to future support my son.
I cannot recommend her enough!!

Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

I would recommend Phil to anyone. He taught GCSE English Language to my son, helping him achieve a good grade and more importantly building his confidence and skills. Phil was kind, supportive and explained things very clearly and he always left useful feedback.

He really enjoyed your lessons and said you made everything easy to understand and enjoyable.I truly appreciate the time, patience, and encouragement you gave him. It’s made a huge difference to his confidence and attitude toward English. Thanks again for all your help — we’re both very grateful!

Amazing tutor! I went from a weak grade 3 in English Language to being just one mark off a 6. Lessons were clear, supportive, and really boosted my confidence. I couldn’t have done it without their help and would 100% recommend.

Ameela R
Ameena tutored our son for an English language retake and he got an 8! He went up 3 grades from a 5. Her tutoring was focussed and responsive and she did it all over about 7 weeks. Could not ask for more. Thank you so much Ameena!

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 at QEHS. Can a tutor help them stand out in a high-achieving class?
Absolutely. In a competitive school environment, one-to-one tuition can give your child the edge. A tutor can focus on the specific areas they need to master, helping them deepen their understanding and build the confidence to excel amongst their peers.
We're hoping for a place at Durham or Newcastle University. Can a tutor help with the personal statement?
Yes, many of our English tutors have extensive experience helping students craft compelling personal statements. They can help your child structure their ideas, refine their writing, and showcase their strengths, which is a crucial part of the UCAS application process for competitive universities.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking. This helps you find someone with the right experience and a personality that will click with your child.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and we personally interview them to assess their expertise and teaching style. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform.
How much do online English tutors in Hexham cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Will online tutoring really help my child if they struggle to focus?
Many parents find online tutoring is actually better for focus. The one-to-one attention means the lesson moves at your child's pace, and our interactive online classroom has tools like a whiteboard to keep them engaged. It's a focused environment without classroom distractions.
What happens in a typical online English lesson?
Lessons are tailored to your child's needs. A session might involve working through a specific text they're studying in school, planning an essay structure, practising exam techniques, or simply building confidence in their reading and writing. The tutor will set goals with you and your child.
How quickly can we see an improvement in their English grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but consistent, tailored support can make a big difference quickly. Many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence within just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Sessions are typically one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor.
How do I book and pay for lessons?
Once you've chosen a tutor, you can book and pay securely through the Tutorful platform. Your payment details are stored safely, and you're only charged 24 hours after a lesson has been completed.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have experts for core subjects like English and Maths, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. You can find tutors for everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding and Python.
