Personalised English Support to Help Your Child Succeed
We believe the best learning happens when a tutor truly understands your child. Our tutors take the time to learn about their specific goals and how they like to work. Whether they're finding poetry analysis tricky or need to structure an essay better, their tutor will adapt their teaching style to build a genuine connection and make learning feel positive and productive. Every one-to-one lesson is planned around your child's exact needs. Forget trying to keep up in a busy classroom; this is their time. They can focus on tricky themes in 'An Inspector Calls', practise analysing quotes, or go over grammar rules until they click. It's this focused attention that helps 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Finding the right help shouldn't add to your family's stress. With Tutorful, you can browse our top-rated tutors—we only accept 1 in 8 who apply—and find the perfect match for your child from the comfort of your home in Rothwell.

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 wants to study A-Levels at Woodkirk Academy. Can a tutor help them get the required GCSE English grade?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students meet specific entry requirements for colleges like Woodkirk. They can focus on the exact skills and knowledge your child needs to secure the grades for their chosen A-Level courses.
We're hoping for a place at the University of Leeds. Can an English tutor help with that?
Yes, a strong foundation in English is crucial for university applications. As well as helping with A-Level English, a tutor can help your child develop the critical thinking and essay-writing skills that are so important for competitive degree courses at institutions like the University of Leeds.
How do I choose the best English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed profiles for each tutor, complete with their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. Many also offer a short introductory chat so you can make sure they're the right personality fit for your child before booking.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is important. 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 online English tutoring 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 someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term commitments.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS check. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
How can an online tutor help my child build confidence?
A one-to-one setting gives your child a safe space to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, our tutors help them see their own progress, which is a huge confidence booster.
My child finds English boring. How can a tutor help?
A great tutor can bring any subject to life! By connecting texts like 'Macbeth' to themes your child is interested in or turning grammar into a fun challenge, they can change your child's perspective and show them how creative and engaging English can be.
What happens in the online classroom?
Our online classroom is simple to use and has everything your child needs for a great lesson. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sketching out ideas, and a way to share documents and past papers in real-time.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your tutor if needed.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Once you've found a tutor you like, you can send them a message directly from their profile to arrange your first session. Many of our 200,000+ happy students have found a tutor and started learning within 48 hours.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. Your child could learn a new language, master a musical instrument like the guitar, or even get ahead with skills like coding.
