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 wants to apply to Collyer's sixth form. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have extensive experience helping students meet the entry requirements for competitive sixth forms like Collyer's. They can focus on strengthening your child's essay writing and analytical skills to help them achieve the GCSE grades they need.
We're worried a low GCSE English grade will limit university choices like Sussex or Brighton. How can tutoring help?
It's a common concern, and we're here to help. A strong English GCSE is a foundation for many A-Levels and university courses. Our tutors work with your child to build core skills and confidence, aiming to improve their grade. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, opening up more opportunities for their future.
How do I pick the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few and sending them a message to ask about their approach. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
Finding the right fit is the most important thing. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just 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 tuition cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an expert tutor that fits your budget.
Are your tutors properly vetted?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has been through a rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is learning from the best.
How can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence in English?
One-to-one tuition is fantastic for building confidence. In a supportive, private setting, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Tutors celebrate small wins and break down difficult topics, helping your child see their own progress and feel capable again.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs: video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home, with all their lesson notes saved in one place.
Do you only offer help with school subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we also offer a huge range of other skills! From learning to play the guitar or piano to getting to grips with coding or a new language, there's a tutor for almost any interest your child might have.
How long is a typical lesson?
Most lessons are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message them at any time to ask questions or discuss their learning goals. Many parents say they see a positive change not just in their child's grades, but in their attitude towards learning.
What if we need to reschedule a lesson?
Life happens! We have a flexible 24-hour cancellation policy. As long as you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, you can cancel or reschedule a lesson without being charged.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
