Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a top sixth form in the Redbridge area. Can a tutor help with the specific English Language grades needed?

Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students target specific grades for entry into competitive sixth forms and colleges. They can focus on the exact exam techniques and curriculum knowledge required to help your child achieve their goals and secure their place.

How can I be sure an online tutor will understand the curriculum taught in my child's Ilford school?

Our tutors are experts in the UK's national curriculum and the main exam boards (like AQA, Edexcel, and OCR) used by schools across the country, including those in Ilford. During your first session, the tutor will chat with your child about their specific topics and exam board to ensure all lessons are perfectly aligned with what they're learning in school.

How does online tutoring actually work? Is it as good as meeting in person?

Online tutoring is just as effective, and often more convenient! Lessons happen via video call, using an interactive whiteboard that both tutor and student can write on. The main benefit is access; from your home in Ilford, your child can learn from a top specialist anywhere in the UK, not just someone local. Plus, no travel makes it much easier to fit around busy family lives.

What if my child doesn't click with the first English Language tutor we try?

Finding the right personality match is so important, and we completely understand that. If the first lesson isn't a perfect fit, please email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor. We're here to help you find someone your child genuinely connects with.

My child has lost all their confidence in English. Can a tutor help with that, not just the grades?

Building confidence is at the heart of what we do. The one-to-one setting allows tutors to create a safe, encouraging space where your child feels comfortable asking questions. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, tutors help students see their own progress, which is the best confidence booster there is. Many of our 4,100+ reviews from parents mention this transformation.

How do you check your tutors are high quality and safe to work with?

We take safety and quality very seriously. We have a rigorous selection process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor must provide a valid DBS check and professional references, and we interview them to ensure they have the expertise and passion to bring subjects to life for your child.

Can we find a tutor who can help with both English Language and English Literature?

Yes, many of our English tutors are specialists in both and would be delighted to help. You can check each tutor's profile to see the specific subjects they offer, and you can even filter your search to find tutors who cover both Language and Literature.

My child enjoys creative writing, not just exam prep. Do you offer tutoring for that too?

We do! Many of our English tutors are passionate writers themselves and love nurturing a student's creative spark. Whether it's for personal enjoyment, building a portfolio, or preparing for a competition, you can find a tutor to help your child develop their creative writing skills.

How much do online English Language tutors cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications. Prices are clearly displayed on every tutor's profile, so you can easily find an experienced tutor who fits within your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

What technology do we need for online lessons?

It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or desktop computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our platform works directly in your web browser, so there's no special software to download.

How many sessions a week would you recommend for GCSE English Language?

For most students, a one-hour session per week provides a great balance, allowing for consistent progress without feeling overwhelming. However, the tutor can discuss your child's specific goals with you and recommend a frequency that's right for them.

Besides English, what other subjects do you offer for students in Ilford?

We offer online tutoring in over 300 subjects! So whether your child needs help with maths or science, wants to learn a new language like French or Spanish, or even explore hobbies like coding or playing the guitar, we have expert tutors ready to help them learn from your home in Ilford.
