The Right Support to Help Your Child Thrive
We believe the best learning happens when your child feels understood. That's why we help you find a tutor who not only knows their subject inside out, but also takes the time to connect with your child. They'll get to know their learning style and what makes them tick, creating a partnership built on trust. It's no wonder 90% of students improve by at least one grade with us. Every lesson is designed around your child's specific goals. If they're finding creative writing for the 11+ a challenge, their tutor can focus on building descriptive language. If it's tricky poems for GCSEs, they'll break them down together. This focused attention helps fill any gaps in their knowledge and ensures they make real, noticeable progress. Finding the right support shouldn't add to your family's stress. With our online platform, you can connect with the best background-checked English tutors from across the UK, all from the comfort of your home in Rochford. Lessons can be scheduled around school, clubs, and family time, making it easy to fit learning into your busy life.

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!

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the CSSE 11+ for entry into Southend or Westcliff grammar schools. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation. They have experience with the specific demands of the CSSE exam, from creative writing tasks to complex comprehension passages. They can help your child build the specific skills and exam techniques needed to feel confident on the day.
Are the tutors actually based in Rochford?
Our tutors are online, which means you can connect with the very best English specialists from all over the UK, not just those in the Rochford area. This gives you a much wider choice of experts, including those with specific experience in 11+ or GCSE preparation, ensuring you find the perfect match for your child.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. Think about your child's specific needs – do they need help with exam technique, building confidence, or grasping a tricky topic like grammar? You can message tutors directly to ask questions before booking to ensure they're the perfect fit.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel it's not the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence in English?
Yes, this is one of the most powerful benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe and positive space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they can rebuild your child's self-belief, which often has a positive impact on their other subjects too.
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 has their ID and qualifications verified. We interview every tutor and are very selective – we only accept 1 in 8 applicants. You can trust that your child is learning from a professional, vetted expert.
How much does an 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 do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom is simple to use and has everything your child needs for a great lesson. There's an interactive whiteboard for working through problems, a space to share documents and past papers, and face-to-face video chat. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a good internet connection.
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 might want more frequent lessons in the run-up to an exam, or less frequent sessions for general support. You can discuss the best approach directly with your tutor.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message them at any time to ask questions or discuss progress. The biggest sign, though, is often seeing your child's confidence grow and hearing them talk more positively about their English work.
Do you only offer tutoring for academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical and creative skills. You can find tutors for everything from learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python.
How many people have used Tutorful?
You're in good company! We're proud to have helped over 200,000 students on their learning journey. We have over 4,100 customer reviews with an average rating of 4.6 stars, so you can feel confident you're making a great choice for your child.
