Siobhan R
Creative English tutor
***Online lessons only ***Hi my name is Siobhan! I am a dedicated, patient and enthusiastic primary teacher who has 8 years experience in different roles within the primary and secondary education system including supporting children with SEN as well as SATs interventions. I believe all pupils have the capacity to succeed and surpass their goals, if they're given the right support and guidance. It is important that a tutor and student have a good relationship that allows for the pupil to feel confident and reassured enough to admit when they don’t understand or make mistakes in their work. This i...

Emily H
Enthusiastic English Tutor
I am a qualified teacher that aims to tailor my approach to the individual student by setting clear goals and focusing on areas in which to grow confidence. I believe effective tutoring is about delivering complex concepts in simple terms with patience, encouragement and enthusiasm. Also, I believe that encouraging deep questioning on topics where there may be misunderstanding or a lack of enthusiasm is an excellent learning mechanism. Developing strong relationships with students means that parallels can be drawn between what is being studied, and the students’ own life experiences, which makes f...

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 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.

Brilliant English tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
We're aiming for a competitive sixth form. Can a tutor help my child achieve the top GCSE English grades needed?
Absolutely. Our tutors specialise in helping students secure the crucial Grade 7-9s. They can focus on exam technique, essay writing, and textual analysis to help your child stand out and meet the entry requirements for competitive sixth forms.
My child finds the work at schools like Bishop Ramsey challenging. Can a tutor help them feel more confident?
Yes, many parents come to us for this exact reason. A private tutor can work at your child's pace, revisiting topics they find difficult and helping them get ahead on new ones. This personalised support is fantastic for building confidence in a competitive school environment.
How do I pick the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is essential for learning. 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 does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How much does an online English tutor in Ruislip cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but typically range from £25 to £50 per hour. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are ID and background-checked. We are very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to our platform, so you can have complete peace of mind.
What happens in a typical English tutoring session?
A typical session is tailored to your child's needs. It might involve going over a tricky piece of homework, practising exam questions, analysing a specific poem or play, or working on essay structure. The tutor will focus on whatever will help your child make the most progress.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's English grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but regular, consistent lessons can make a big difference quickly. Many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour-long lesson per week is ideal for steady progress. However, you can arrange lessons as often as you like, especially in the run-up to exams. It's completely flexible and you can discuss the best approach with your chosen tutor.
Can a tutor help my child with their confidence, not just their grades?
Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the boost in confidence it provides. Having a supportive expert guide them in a friendly, low-pressure environment helps students feel more comfortable asking questions and believing in their own abilities.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills like creative writing or public speaking?
While we cover all academic subjects, we also have brilliant tutors who can help your child explore hobbies and develop new talents. From learning an instrument or a new language to coding and creative writing, we're here to support all kinds of learning.
