Flora I
Flora is a very patient, professional and well-prepared tutor. She always explains things clearly and teaches my son how to answer GCSE questions in a structured way. She provides homework, goes through mistakes carefully, and shows him how to improve his answers step by step. She also adjusts her teaching according to my son’s exam boards and level. My son is less anxious about English now and is slowly gaining confidence. We are very happy with her support and would definitely recommend her.
She is especially good at supporting students who are weaker in English and need clear guidance and structure.

Megan is a wonderful tutor!
My son has really enjoyed the sessions with her and she adapts them to ensure he is fully understanding the teaching.

I cannot recommend her enough!!

Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the Kent Test. Can I find a tutor with experience in this?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ and grammar school entrance exams. You can use our search filters to find tutors with this specific experience and read reviews from other parents who had the same goal for their child.
We're aiming for a place at Cranbrook School. Can a tutor help with that level of preparation?
Yes. Our tutors can provide focused support to help your child build the advanced comprehension, creative writing, and reasoning skills needed for competitive entrance exams like those for Cranbrook School. You can message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
The best way is to look at their profile. You can watch their introduction video, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications and experience. We always recommend sending a message to a few tutors to chat about your child's goals before you book.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the perfect fit for your child. 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 an English tutor in Tenterden cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on experience, but you can easily find a highly-rated, background-checked tutor that fits your family's budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's a live, one-to-one lesson with your tutor in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard for problem-solving, and a way to share documents. It’s designed to be just as effective and engaging as being in the same room.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is interviewed and has their ID and background checked. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
My child's confidence in English is very low. Can a tutor help with that?
Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the confidence boost it provides. Tutors create a patient and encouraging environment where your child can ask questions and build their understanding without any classroom pressure.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we have fantastic tutors for core academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, you can also find experts to help your child learn a musical instrument, a new language, or even coding.
How often should my child have lessons?
Most families find that one lesson a week works well, but it's completely flexible. You can arrange a schedule that suits your child's needs and your family's routine directly with your tutor.
What if my child has a specific learning need like dyslexia?
Many of our tutors have experience and qualifications in supporting students with specific learning needs. You can use our search filters to find these tutors and message them directly to discuss how they can best support your child.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Lessons are typically an hour long, which gives enough time to dive into a topic properly. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor if your child would benefit from a shorter or longer session.
