Experienced English tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at Treorchy Comprehensive School. Can a tutor help with their specific English curriculum?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced with the WJEC curriculum used in Wales. They can tailor lessons to the specific texts, exam formats, and assessment objectives your child is working towards at Treorchy Comprehensive, ensuring the support is perfectly aligned with their schoolwork.
We're hoping for a place at a top Welsh university like Cardiff or Swansea. Can a tutor help?
Yes. Beyond just improving grades, our English tutors can help your child develop the critical thinking and advanced essay-writing skills that top universities look for. This can be a huge advantage when it comes to writing a compelling personal statement and preparing for higher education.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their teaching style. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. The best fit is often someone your child connects with.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has a valid DBS certificate. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. 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 much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can a tutor help build my child's confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe, encouraging environment where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, tutors help your child see their own progress, which is a fantastic confidence booster.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we cover all core academic subjects, we also have tutors for a wide range of other skills! You can find expert tutors for everything from learning an instrument like guitar or piano to practical skills like coding and public speaking.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
Can a tutor help with both English Language and English Literature?
Yes, many of our English tutors are experts in both and can create a learning plan that covers everything your child needs for their GCSEs, from analysing poetry in Literature to mastering persuasive writing in Language.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but regular, consistent lessons can make a big impact. 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.
What if we need to change or cancel a lesson?
It's easy. You can manage your schedule directly with your tutor through our platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel a lesson to avoid being charged.
