Carole G
Professional English tutor
Hi, my name is Carole. I worked as a primary school teacher for 19 years and I have been tutoring children from reception to year 8, mainly online, since February 2020. I have worked with many children, helping them to achieve success in SATs, school entrance exams or to gain increased confidence and enjoyment of their subjects in school. I had some recent feedback from a parent, stating that their child had "gone from being scared of maths (and trying to hide it by saying maths is boring) to loving it!" Some of my current students have worked with me for several years, continuing after primary...

Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at Ysgol Brynhyfryd. Can a tutor help with the WJEC English curriculum?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in the Scottish curriculum, including the SQA National 5 and Higher qualifications. They can tailor lessons to the specific texts, assessments, and skills your child is working on at Levenmouth Academy to help them feel prepared and confident.
We're hoping for a place at the University of St Andrews or Dundee. Can a tutor help with Higher English?
Yes, many of our English tutors specialise in preparing students for Higher English. They can provide targeted support with critical essays, textual analysis, and exam technique to help your child achieve the grades needed for competitive university courses.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is key to their success.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand 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 are your tutors vetted?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID and qualifications verified. We also interview every applicant and are highly selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 who apply, ensuring your child learns from a trusted professional.
How much does online English tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £20-£40 per hour, depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can see each tutor's rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget.
Can tutoring help if my child has lost confidence in English?
Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is rebuilding confidence. In a supportive, private setting, your child can ask questions they might be hesitant to ask in class, work at their own pace, and celebrate small wins, which makes a huge difference to their self-esteem.
What happens in an online lesson? Is it just a video call?
Our online classroom is much more than a video call. It's an interactive learning space with a digital whiteboard, screen sharing, and document editing tools. This allows tutors and students to work through texts, edit essays, and practice exam questions together in real-time.
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, the frequency is completely up to you and can be adjusted based on your child's needs, such as increasing sessions in the run-up to exams.
How can I track my child's progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's development. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss how things are going and review lesson recordings to see exactly what they've been working on.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like coding or a musical instrument?
While we're well known for academic subjects, we also have brilliant tutors who teach a wide range of skills and hobbies, from learning to play the guitar to coding in Python. You can find experts in over 300 subjects on our platform.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at a different pace, but consistent one-to-one support can make a noticeable difference quite quickly. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence within just a few lessons, and 90% of our students improve by at least one grade over time.
