Over the past 20 years, I have had the opportunity to develop my teaching skills, gaining valuable experience in teaching learners who need extra support to overcome barriers to achieving.

My qualifications such as BA(Hons) Degree in Education where I used Autism in the classroom as my Dissertation, Certificate in Education, L3 Awareness in ASD and L5 Adult Specialist in English , are necessary to implement resources to motivate such barriers and complex needs, including...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a tutor help my child get the grades needed for A-Levels at a competitive local sixth form?

Absolutely. This is one of the main reasons parents in Washington come to us. Our English tutors are experienced in helping students target the specific skills needed to secure a grade 5 or above at GCSE, which is often a key requirement for A-Level courses.

My child hopes to apply to universities like Newcastle or Durham. Can a tutor help?

Yes. While our tutors focus on the current curriculum, they help build the strong foundational English skills and analytical thinking that create a compelling UCAS application. A strong grade in GCSE and A-Level English is a huge advantage when applying to top universities.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

It's a personal choice, and we make it easy. You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to get a feel for their approach before booking your first session.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We understand that the right connection is key to 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 do the online lessons actually work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson. There's a live video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes and examples, and the ability to upload documents like essays or past papers. It's a simple, effective, and engaging way to learn.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile with no hidden costs.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an enhanced DBS check and ID verification, before they can teach on our platform.

How can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence in English?

Confidence is often the biggest hurdle. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, patient space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, they can rebuild your child's self-belief step-by-step.

Can a tutor focus on specific areas, like the poetry anthology?

Definitely. That's the main benefit of one-to-one tuition. If your child finds the poetry section of the GCSE particularly challenging, their tutor can dedicate as many sessions as needed to master it, tailoring the lessons completely to their needs.

How many lessons will my child need?

There's no set rule. Some students need a few sessions to prepare for an exam, while others benefit from weekly lessons throughout the school year. You can discuss your child's goals with your tutor to create a plan that works for you.

Do you only offer tutoring for school subjects?

Not at all! While we support thousands of students with academic subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also have amazing tutors who can teach life skills and hobbies, from learning to play the guitar or coding in Python to public speaking.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths with your tutor if needed.
