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 study A-Levels in Peterborough. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE English grades they need?
Absolutely. This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. Our English tutors are experienced in helping students secure the specific grades needed for entry into competitive sixth forms and colleges. They can focus on the exact areas of the curriculum your child needs to strengthen to aim for a Grade 6 or higher.
My child is ambitious and might aim for a top university like Cambridge. Can an English tutor help with this?
Yes, a strong foundation in English is crucial for applications to top universities. Our tutors can help your child develop the advanced analytical and communication skills that admissions tutors at places like Cambridge look for. They can help build the confidence and deep subject knowledge needed to stand out.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications and experience on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking a session to make sure you find the perfect fit.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that finding the right fit is crucial. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, 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 tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How do online lessons actually work?
Our online lessons take place in a purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools, so your child and their tutor can work through texts, edit essays, and solve problems together in real-time. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
My child has lost confidence in English. Can a tutor help?
Yes, this is where one-to-one tutoring really shines. A private tutor can provide a safe and encouraging environment for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild your child's self-belief and rediscover their enjoyment of the subject.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are also very selective, and only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply is accepted to join Tutorful, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions last for one hour, as this is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress. It provides enough time to build momentum and practice new skills between sessions. You can discuss the best frequency for your child's goals directly with your tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we cover all core academic subjects, we also have expert tutors who can help your child explore other interests and skills. From learning a musical instrument like the guitar to creative writing, public speaking, or even coding, we can help your child pursue their passions.
How do I pay for lessons?
Payments are simple and secure. When you book a lesson, we'll ask for your card details, which are stored securely. You'll only be charged 24 hours after each lesson is complete, and you can manage all your payments easily from your Tutorful account.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
