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!

Jessica C
Our son has had four lessons in English Language and English Literature with Jessica so far, as he’s sitting his GCSEs this year. It’s clear Jessica has a strong background and is truly in the right profession—she knows exactly what’s needed and structures each lesson to cover any gaps. She explains everything clearly, focuses on exam technique, and is patient and supportive. Our son enjoys the lessons and already feels more confident. We’re planning to continue and are very glad to have Jessica as his tutor. We highly recommend her!

asked questions
See all FAQs
Can an online English Language tutor help my child prepare for the 11+ exams for schools like Tiffin?
Absolutely. Our English Language tutors specialise in helping children develop the strong comprehension, verbal reasoning, and critical thinking skills essential for the demanding 11+ entrance exams, including those for super-selective grammar schools in Kingston upon Thames like Tiffin School and The Tiffin Girls' School. They can provide targeted practice and strategies to boost your child's confidence.
How can an English Language tutor help my child achieve top GCSE grades for competitive A-Levels and university applications?
Many parents in Kingston upon Thames are keen for their children to achieve top GCSE English Language grades (8 or 9) for competitive A-Level courses and Russell Group university applications. Our tutors excel at breaking down complex exam requirements, refining essay writing, analysing texts, and improving overall communication skills, which are crucial for success at this level. We've seen 90% of students improve by at least one grade, and specifically for GCSE, students can improve by up to 2 grades.
Is tutoring only for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have many expert academic tutors, Tutorful offers much more than just school subjects. Your child can find a tutor for a wide range of skills and hobbies, from learning a new language or musical instrument, to coding, photography, or even personal development coaching. If your child has a passion or an area they want to explore, we likely have a tutor to support them.
What if my child doesn't get along with their online English Language tutor?
We want you and your child to feel completely comfortable and supported. That's why we offer a First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the best online English Language tutor for my child?
You can browse profiles of our highly qualified English Language tutors, filtering by experience, specialisms (like 11+ or GCSE), and hourly rate. Each tutor has a detailed profile, including parent reviews and a video introduction, helping you find the perfect match for your child's learning style and goals. Remember, we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring you have access to the best.
How much does online English Language tutoring typically cost?
Tutor rates vary depending on their experience, qualifications, and the subject level. You'll find a clear hourly rate on each tutor's profile, allowing you to choose an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees, and you only pay for the lessons your child takes.
How quickly can I expect to see improvements in my child's English Language skills?
While every child is different, many parents notice increased confidence and understanding within just a few sessions. Our tailored approach focuses on your child's specific needs, leading to tangible progress. We're proud that 90% of students improve by at least one grade, with GCSE students often seeing an improvement of up to 2 grades.
What makes Tutorful different from other tutoring platforms?
We pride ourselves on our commitment to quality, safety, and personalised learning. We rigorously vet our tutors, accepting only 1 in 8 applicants and ensuring all have up-to-date background checks. Our platform is highly rated at 4.6 stars from over 4,100+ customer reviews, and we've helped over 200,000 happy students achieve their learning goals with dedicated, one-to-one support.
How does online English Language tutoring actually work?
It's really straightforward! Your child connects with their tutor through our interactive online classroom, which features a virtual whiteboard, document sharing, and video chat. All lessons are recorded, so your child can revisit them anytime. It offers all the benefits of face-to-face learning with the added convenience and flexibility of studying from home.
Can an English Language tutor help my child with specific areas like creative writing or verbal reasoning?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors can focus on any specific area your child needs help with. Whether it's improving their creative writing for school projects, honing their verbal reasoning skills for entrance exams, mastering essay structure, or deep-diving into literary analysis, your child's tutor will create a custom plan to address their individual learning objectives.
What are the benefits of one-to-one English Language tutoring over group classes?
One-to-one tutoring means your child gets the tutor's undivided attention. The lessons are entirely focused on their pace, learning style, and specific challenges, unlike group settings where the tutor has to cater to multiple students. This personalised approach ensures that every moment of the lesson is maximised for your child's progress and understanding.
How quickly can I expect to see improvements in my child's English Language skills?
Your child's safety and learning quality are our top priorities. We have a thorough vetting process; only 1 in 8 tutor applicants are accepted, and all tutors undergo enhanced background checks. You can also read detailed profiles and reviews from other parents to feel confident in your choice.
