Beth D
Creative and targeted English tutor
Hello! I have two years of private tutoring experience and I’m a friendly, enthusiastic tutor wanting to help students achieve the best grades possible. I use a personalised approach in my teaching methods as no two students are the same and if I find that something isn’t working for any individual I will always change my approach to find an understanding, whether that be incorporating drawings and visual aids or providing every day examples. I think tutoring can be fun and enjoyable with the right person for you behind the screen! I like to make my lessons interactive rather than a lecture sty...

Chloe L
Friendly English tutor
I like to base all my lessons around solid scaffolding. This means we would start with what prior knowledge we have, then move onto a solid introduction, then do guided questions and then finally completing work independently. I’m currently coming to the end of my teaching degree. I have worked in the schools however over the last six years I have been a teaching assistant for two of those years, then moved on to covering classes and then moving onto teaching in an unqualified position. I have taught between reception year up to year six. I have a very strong understanding of the national curriculum f...

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
We are aiming for a grammar school in Reading. Can a tutor help with the 11+ English paper?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience with 11+ preparation. They can help your child build a strong vocabulary, master comprehension techniques, and practise creative writing skills under timed conditions to help them feel calm and prepared for the exam.
My child is at a local primary school and we're worried about the step up to a competitive secondary like Edgbarrow. Can tutoring help?
Definitely. A tutor can be a brilliant partner in managing the transition to secondary school. They can help bridge any gaps in your child's knowledge, particularly in core areas like comprehension and essay structure, ensuring they start Year 7 feeling capable and confident.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can filter tutors by experience and subject level, read detailed profiles, and check reviews from other parents. We also encourage you to message tutors for a quick chat before booking to make sure they're a great fit for your child's personality and learning style.
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, 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?
All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for brainstorming ideas or analysing texts, and a space to share documents. It's a simple, secure, and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
How much does online English tuition cost?
Our tutors are independent and set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. Prices vary based on a tutor's experience and level of demand. There are no hidden fees or extra costs, so you can easily find an expert tutor who fits your budget.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor must have a valid DBS check (or equivalent) and provide references. We personally interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
Can tutoring help my child if they've lost their confidence in English?
Building confidence is at the heart of what our tutors do. The one-to-one setting provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Tutors celebrate small wins and adapt their teaching style to help your child feel capable and motivated again.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback so you're always kept in the loop. You can discuss your child's goals and track their achievements together. Seeing your child's confidence grow is often the first and most important sign that they're on the right track.
How long and frequent should the lessons be?
Most lessons are an hour long, and many parents find a weekly session works best to build momentum. However, it's completely flexible and depends on your child's needs. You can discuss the ideal frequency with your tutor to create a schedule that works for your family.
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 huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, speak Spanish, or get to grips with coding, you can find an expert tutor to help.
What happens if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
We understand that life can be busy. Our cancellation policy is simple: as long as you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, you can cancel or reschedule a lesson without any charge. You can manage all your bookings easily through your Tutorful account.
