* Book your child in for SUMMER BOOSTER sessions TODAY*- I have had a HUGE increase this year in last minute requests for support, even for the day before the exam...- Many of these young people have been worrying about their GCSEs and A Levels behind closed doors and parents have realised too late that they need support.- If your child is in secondary school or 6th form now and you have any doubt about their independent study skills please consider summer sessions.- I hear all too often that the young people I am working with do not have the skills in order to attempt independent study. These...

Leigh worked with our teenage son to prepare for his English Language iGCSE. With only a short time before the exam, they quickly developed a constructive rapport. Leigh was quickly able to assess where our son ‘was at’ in terms of his readiness for that exam. Over just a few sessions, analysis and writing skills were imparted and developed that meant our son felt prepared. Moreover, our son so enjoyed the way Leigh worked and his obvious passion for and skills in language analysis, that he chose to continue language analysis sessions just for the fun of it once the exam was over. A comment our son has made more than once after a session is, ‘I just love learning!’ The exam was passed really well – the outcome we hoped would be possible – but more significantly, we are grateful for Leigh’s ability to really draw out and develop our son’s enjoyment of the English language.

Ihsanur R
Last Year I did not do well in English Language in which I had a Grade 3. With my November resits fast approaching I felt very privileged to have Ihsanur as my tutor. He was able to present lessons in a concise way which helped me understand what went well and what I needed to improve on.
After the November resits I managed to obtain a Grade 4 in English Language AQA. I would really recommend him for those taking the GCSE 2026 because he is committed and dedicated in order to achieve academic potential with pupils. Thanks again Ihsanur for the hard work you do.

Smita Paneru S
I can’t recommend Smita enough! After struggling and retaking my English Language exam twice before she’s the only tutor who has truly managed to teach me in a way that makes everything click. She explains things clearly and in a way that actually makes sense. Smita never made me feel judged for needing extra help. She is an genuinly an incredible tutor who genuinely cares about her students’ progress. I honestly wish I’d found her sooner! I can’t thank her enough for helping me. :)

Flora I
Flora has been helping Isla prepare for her English Literature and English Language GCSE exams. From the first lesson, Flora “clicked” with Isla and quickly understood her needs. She made Isla feel comfortable and pinpointed areas for development and was so supportive. Isla felt at ease and could ask questions knowing that the necessary time would be taken to help her understand. Flora was incredibly accommodating, adjusting lesson times and dates as needed. She was also very responsive to messages and promptly returned marked work, going above and beyond to support us. Isla’s work was annotated and marked, providing valuable feedback and areas for future focus, which has been invaluable. Flora’s passion for the subject shone through, thank you so much Flora!

In just a few weeks, my daughter’s confidence in both English and maths has grown so much thanks to Ria.
She's feeling much more prepared for her upcoming GCSEs.
Ria is super easy to communicate with, really flexible, and her lessons are always well-organised and focused.
She’s been such a great support — we’d definitely recommend her!

Brilliant English Language tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child is aiming for Exeter College and then a Russell Group university. Can a tutor help with that specific goal?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English Language tutors specialise in preparing students for the rigorous demands of top A-Level programmes and competitive university applications. They focus on the high-level analytical and essay-writing skills needed to achieve the top GCSE grades that open those doors.
Are your tutors familiar with the curriculum taught in Exeter schools?
Our tutors are experts in the national curriculum for GCSE English Language (covering exam boards like AQA, Edexcel, etc.) which is followed by schools across the UK, including those in Exeter. The focus is always on the specific exam board your child is studying, ensuring the support is perfectly aligned with what they're learning in school.
Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?
We believe it's even better for many families. Online tutoring gives your child in Exeter access to a much wider pool of top-tier, specialist tutors from all over the UK, not just whoever happens to live nearby. With interactive tools like whiteboards and screen sharing, lessons are just as engaging, plus you save time and hassle on travel.
What if my child doesn't click with the first tutor we try?
Finding the right personality match is crucial, and we understand that. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your 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 do you ensure your tutors are high quality and safe?
We're very selective – only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform. Every tutor is background-checked (DBS) and their qualifications are verified. We also interview them to ensure they have the expertise and passion to help your child thrive.
How quickly will I see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but consistent, tailored support makes a real difference. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence within just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students achieve a higher grade after working with a Tutorful tutor.
How much do online English Language tutors for Exeter students cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study, but typically range from £25 to £50 per hour. Each tutor sets their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget.
What technology do we need for an online lesson?
It's simple! All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom runs directly in your browser, so there's no complicated software to install.
How long is a typical session and how often should my child have one?
Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually ideal for maintaining focus. We generally recommend one session per week to build momentum and reinforce school learning, but this is completely flexible and can be arranged with your tutor to suit your child's needs.
My child also needs help with their maths. Do you offer tutors for other subjects?
Yes, we do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core GCSEs like Maths and Science to A-Levels, languages, and even music tuition. You can find the perfect support for all your child's learning needs on our platform.
How do I find the right English Language tutor for my child?
Our platform makes it easy. You can filter tutors by subject, level (e.g., GCSE), and availability. Read their profiles, watch their intro videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors before booking to make sure they're the perfect fit.
With so much local history in Exeter, can a tutor help my child find inspiration for their creative writing?
That's a great idea! Whilst our tutors' primary focus is the curriculum, many are fantastic at sparking a passion for the subject. An online tutor can help your child explore how to use settings and historical context – like Exeter's own rich past – to bring their descriptive and narrative writing to life for their GCSE assignments.
