Find an expert English Language tutor in Edinburgh

My son is dyslexic and wasn’t too keen on doing video tutorials but he got on well with Luke and ended up very comfortable with the process. Luke is very easy going, calm and friendly. I found him great on communication and my son’s knowledge and confidence with English GCSE was greatly enhanced in a way his school teachers weren’t able to manage. Highly recommended!

Susan is an amazing tutor, if I could give her more than 5 stars I would . My daughter was preparing for her English Language exam and she was struggling but Susan guided her so well, she provided useful revision material , exam technique guides, marked her exam questions,and went through with her how she can improve her answers. She put in a lot of effort in every lesson, this helped boost my daughters confidence.I would recommend who is looking for an English tutor to book with Susan.

There are teachers/tutors who do it as a business, and there are tutors who do it but with the addition of care to truly help progress a student. My son doesn't enjoy English but with Megan's engagement, she immediately built a relationship in which he felt able to learn from and start to feel confident in English. Megan methodically took him through core foundations and then onto good exam techniques. My son doesn't really like tutors, but he is always willing to attend Megan's sessions, often walking away saying "yeah, she really helped me on xxx". Thank you Megan

Anita has been highly supportive and reliable tutor. She has provided my son with detailed structured advice, given opportunities for homework and feedback in between sessions.

Kate has been tutoring my son GCSE English Language for a few weeks and in that time his confidence has grown so much! The combination of subject knowledge and exam preparation skills that Kate teaches are excellent. The lessons are planned, targeted and my son is fully engaged.

We were incredibly fortunate to have Michaela support our son with his English Language and Literature GCSEs. She was very engaging, attentive, and encouraging - quickly building a strong rapport with him and boosting his confidence. She provided excellent materials tailored to his needs and was always responsive and helpful whenever we had questions. Michaela was also very supportive as we navigated my son’s dyslexia diagnosis. She guided us through the process, helping us adapt his learning approach and ensuring he felt supported every step of the way. We’re very grateful for her help and highly recommend her to any family looking for thoughtful and skilled English tuition.

My daugther (16y) switched to a different international school earlier this year but wanted to complete her English IGCSE. Ifa tutored her for 4 months to help her prepare. I have only good things to say about how she supported my daugther. Ifa was kind, very dedicated, was fully familiar with the curriculum, explained things very well, and proposed lots of practical exercises. Communications with me and my daughter about scheduling was very fluid and easy. Without Ifa's support my daugther would have struggled to complete this course next to her regular school programme. I really highly recommend Ifa.

I’m grateful for the wonderful English lessons my daughter received from Bev. From the very first session, it was clear that Bev is not only highly knowledgeable but also genuinely passionate about teaching. She creates an engaging learning environment that made a huge difference in my daughter’s learning progress. My daughter always came out of each lesson feeling motivated and excited to learn more. She often mentioned how much she looked forward to her lessons with Bev, which shows how fun and interactive the sessions were. What stood out the most was Bev’s encouragement and her personalised approach. She took the time to understand my daughter’s strengths and areas for improvement, and took the lessons accordingly. As a result, my daughter made noticeable progress and participates actively in class. Bev is without doubt, one of the best teachers we’ve come across. Her dedication and positivity is amazing. I would highly recommend her to any parent looking for an excellent English tutor who knows how to bring out the best in them.
