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 is aiming for top grades to get into a competitive A-Level course. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. This is a common goal for many parents we support, especially in areas with high-performing schools like Hethersett. Our tutors are experienced in helping students aim for those top 7-9 grades in GCSE English. They can focus on exam technique, essay structure, and in-depth text analysis to give your child the best possible chance of securing their place.
We're thinking about university options like UEA. Can a tutor help with skills for a humanities degree?
Yes, definitely. A strong English tutor does more than just prepare for exams. They help your child develop the critical thinking, analytical, and essay-writing skills that are essential for university-level study in humanities. This early preparation can be a huge advantage when they start applying to competitive courses at universities like the University of East Anglia.
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 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.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications and experience. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and goals to ensure they're 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 control over what you spend.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. Tutors celebrate small wins and break down difficult topics into manageable steps, which builds self-belief and shows them they are capable of succeeding.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, which includes identity and background checks. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to our platform.
How do the online lessons work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a wide range of other skills. You can find expert tutors for everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding and Python.
How often should my child have a lesson?
We find that a regular weekly session works best for most students as it builds momentum and reinforces learning. However, the schedule is completely flexible and up to you and your tutor. You can book lessons as and when your child needs them.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
It's easy. We have a flexible cancellation policy. As long as you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, you can reschedule your lesson for a more convenient time without any charge.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best.
