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 wants to go to Sandwell College. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE English grade they need?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and focus specifically on helping students secure that all-important Grade 5 or higher. They can work with your child on exam technique, essay writing, and understanding the core texts to build their confidence ahead of their exams.
We're hoping for a place at a university like Birmingham City or Aston. How can English tutoring help?
Strong English skills are vital for getting into university. A tutor can help your child excel in their A-Level English, which is often a key requirement. They can also provide invaluable support with writing a compelling personal statement for their UCAS application, helping them stand out from other candidates.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. This helps you find someone with the right experience and teaching style for your family.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right fit is important. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, 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 tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced tutor who fits your budget.
Are your tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How do online lessons work?
Our lessons take place in a secure, online classroom with video chat, a shared whiteboard, and document sharing. It's an interactive and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of your own home, with no travel needed.
Can a tutor help my child with their confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a supportive, encouraging environment where your child feels comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. This often leads to a huge boost in their confidence, both in and out of the classroom.
How quickly will we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach means you can see progress quickly. Because lessons are focused entirely on your child's needs, they can make significant strides in just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Can we get help with a specific exam board, like AQA or Edexcel?
Of course. Many tutors specialise in specific exam boards and their curriculums. You can see their areas of expertise on their profiles or simply message them to ask if they have experience with your child's exam board.
What happens in a typical English tutoring session?
A session is usually tailored to your child's current needs. It might involve going over a tricky piece of homework, practising exam-style questions, analysing a poem or play, or working on essay structure. The tutor will focus on whatever will help your child make the most progress.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a wide range of other skills. You can find expert tutors for everything from learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python.
