Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive university like LSE or UCL. How can an English Language tutor help them stand out?

That's a great goal, and our tutors can certainly help. They focus on developing the higher-level analytical and essay-writing skills that these top universities look for. This means going beyond the curriculum to foster critical thinking, sophisticated argumentation, and a confident, articulate writing style that will impress admissions tutors.

Can a tutor help with the specific English requirements for entrance exams to London's independent schools?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in preparing students for competitive entrance exams, including 11+ and 13+. They can create a tailored programme focusing on the specific comprehension, creative writing, and verbal reasoning skills required, helping your child feel prepared and confident on the day.

Are your tutors familiar with the demanding academic standards in central-london?

Whilst our tutors are based across the UK, many have experience with students in highly competitive academic environments like central-london. They understand the need for excellence and can tailor their approach to help your child meet and exceed the high expectations of the capital's top schools and universities.

Is online tutoring really as effective for a discussion-based subject like English Language?

It is, and many students find it even better. Our online classroom has interactive whiteboards perfect for analysing texts together, and the one-to-one focus allows for deep, uninterrupted conversation. It provides a focused space for your child to share their ideas and build confidence without classroom distractions.

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

Finding the right fit is everything to us. We have a first lesson guarantee, so if you don't get on with your first choice of tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.

How are your English Language tutors selected?

We're very selective. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed by a subject specialist, DBS-checked, and has proven teaching or tutoring experience. We look for passionate educators who can inspire and support their students.

My child's confidence in English is low. How do tutors address this?

This is often the most important part of our work. Our tutors create a safe, encouraging space where your child can try out ideas without fear of judgement. By breaking down challenges into manageable steps and celebrating small wins, they rebuild self-belief, which is the foundation for academic success.

How much do online English Language lessons for a student in central-london cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from £15 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study (e.g., GCSE, A-Level, university entrance). You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.

We have a very busy schedule. How flexible are the lesson times?

That's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. You can schedule sessions at times that suit your family, whether that's after school, on weekends, or during school holidays. There's no travel time to worry about, making it much easier to fit into a packed central-london lifestyle.

What technology do we need for online sessions?

It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our custom-built online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no software to download.

Does Tutorful offer tutoring for other subjects besides English Language?

Yes, we do! We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects, from maths and sciences to modern languages, humanities, and even practical skills like coding or music. We can provide comprehensive academic support for your child across their studies.

Can we find a tutor to help with A-Level English Literature as well as Language?

Of course. Many of our English tutors are specialists in both Language and Literature at A-Level and can provide integrated support. You can check each tutor's profile to see the specific subjects and levels they offer to find the perfect match for your child's needs.
