Victoria W
Friendly English tutor
I am a fully qualified teacher, gaining my PGCE at The University of Cumbria in 2018 and I am currently working as a private tutor. I left mainstream teaching in order to have more freedom to really make a positive impact on those students who need a bit more help. I am experienced teaching Year 10 and 11, so if you are currently getting ready for your exams, get in touch.I love to personalise lessons to suit the needs of each young person and I am happy to adapt my teaching style as required, as no 2 children learn the same way. I have completed 2 degrees in English, 1 in Language, Literature...

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...

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 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
My child is hoping to attend Blackpool Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE English grade they need?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students secure the grades needed for their college of choice. They can focus specifically on the GCSE curriculum, helping your child master key skills to confidently achieve a Grade 5 or above, opening up the A-Level options they want at Blackpool Sixth Form College.
We're aiming for a top university like Lancaster. How can an English tutor support this long-term goal?
Yes. A strong foundation in English is vital for applications to competitive universities like Lancaster. Our tutors can help your child develop advanced analytical and essay-writing skills throughout their A-Levels, building the academic rigour and confidence needed to write a compelling personal statement and excel in their studies.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
Each tutor has a detailed profile with a video, student reviews, qualifications, and their experience. You can read what other parents have said and even message tutors for free before booking to ask about their approach. It's a great way to find the perfect match for your child's personality and learning style.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure it's 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.
How much does an online English tutor in Thornton-Wyre cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced English tutor that fits your family's budget.
Can tutoring really help my child's confidence, not just their grades?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits we see. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy about in class. This personalised attention and positive reinforcement from a dedicated tutor often leads to a significant boost in self-belief.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and we interview every applicant. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from a trusted and highly-qualified professional.

Our online lessons take place in a purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn directly from their tutor, no matter where they are.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange sessions as often as you need, whether that's a one-off lesson to prepare for a specific test or more frequent sessions in the run-up to exams.
How effective is online tutoring?
Online tutoring is incredibly effective. It gives you access to the best tutors across the UK, not just those who live nearby. It also allows for flexible scheduling and provides a focused, distraction-free learning environment. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something different like creative writing?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! Whether your child wants to explore their passion for creative writing, learn a new language, master a musical instrument like the guitar, or even get into coding, you can find an expert tutor to guide them.
What happens in a typical first lesson?
The first lesson is a great chance for the tutor to get to know your child. They'll chat about what your child enjoys, what they find tricky in English, and what their goals are. It's a relaxed session designed to build rapport and create a learning plan that's tailored to them.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
