Ben D
Ben is an amazing tutor, he’s really got my step son who has Asperger’s to engage, lessons are planned and structured, post lesson feedback given which really helps as I can send it over to his mom after his lesson and know what he needs to revise. Definitely a worthwhile investment in my step sons future!

Matthew B
Matthew has been teaching my son since September and he absolutely enjoys the lessons. He explains writing in a way my son can understand, and we’ve already seen a boost in his confidence.
Really friendly, patient, and supportive — we’re very happy with the progress so far. Highly recommend!

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child secure a place at Shrewsbury Colleges Group?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students achieve the specific GCSE English grades needed for entry into competitive sixth forms like Shrewsbury Colleges Group. They can focus on strengthening the exact skills and knowledge required, helping your child build the confidence and ability to secure their place.
My child is aiming for a Russell Group university. Can an English tutor help with this?
Definitely. A strong foundation in English is critical for applications to top universities. A tutor can help your child develop the advanced analytical, critical thinking, and essay-writing skills that Russell Group universities like Birmingham and Warwick value so highly, starting with securing excellent GCSE and A-Level grades.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, check their experience, and see reviews from other parents. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to explain your child's goals. This helps you find someone your child will connect with, which is so important for building their confidence.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first lesson is a chance for the tutor to get to know your child. They'll chat about what your child finds difficult in English, what they enjoy, and what their goals are. It's a relaxed session focused on building a plan together. And don't forget our First Lesson Guarantee for your peace of mind.
What is the First Lesson Guarantee?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How much does an online English tutor in Shrewsbury cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from £15. The price often reflects their experience and qualifications. You can easily use the filters on the search page to find a highly-rated tutor that fits your family's budget.
Are all the tutors background checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It has all the tools needed for your child to learn and collaborate with their tutor, right from your home.
How can tutoring help if my child feels anxious about English?
This is where one-to-one tutoring really shines. A great tutor creates a safe, encouraging space where there are no 'silly' questions. By going at your child's pace and celebrating small wins, they can help turn that anxiety into confidence and a genuine enjoyment of the subject.
Do you only offer tutoring for academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we support thousands of students with core subjects for their GCSEs and A-Levels, we also have amazing tutors who can teach a huge range of skills and hobbies, from learning to play the guitar to coding in Python.
How many lessons a week will my child need?
Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for making steady progress. However, it really depends on your child's goals. You can discuss this with your chosen tutor, and you are always in complete control of the frequency of lessons.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. Many parents also tell us they see a change not just in their child's school work, but in their overall confidence and attitude towards learning, which is a wonderful sign of progress in itself.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
