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!

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!

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 preparing for the 11+ for schools like Tiffin. Can an online tutor help with the specific English and verbal reasoning elements?
Absolutely. Many of our English Language tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have extensive experience with the demands of entrance exams for selective schools. They can create a focused plan to build your child's comprehension, vocabulary, and verbal reasoning skills, working through practice papers to improve both accuracy and timing.
We're aiming for a grade 8 or 9 in GCSE English Language. Can a tutor focus specifically on hitting those top marks?
Yes. Reaching the top GCSE grades often comes down to mastering advanced analytical skills and sophisticated writing techniques. An experienced online tutor can work with your child on analysing unseen texts, structuring high-level arguments, and refining their expression to meet the criteria for grades 8 and 9.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a subject like English Language?
It really is. Our online classroom has interactive tools like a shared whiteboard, which is perfect for annotating texts and planning essays together in real-time. The biggest advantage is that your child in Kingston-upon-Thames gets access to the very best UK tutors, not just whoever is local.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first English Language tutor?
Finding the right personality match is so important. We're confident you'll find the perfect fit, but if you don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I know the tutors are qualified and safe to work with my child?
We take safety and quality very seriously. Every tutor on our platform has been interviewed, had their ID and qualifications checked, and undergone a DBS background check. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the very best.
How much does online English Language tutoring for a student in Kingston-upon-Thames typically cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, but prices for English Language tutoring typically start from around £20 per hour. The price varies based on the tutor's experience and the level of study, from primary support to A-Level and beyond. You can filter tutors by price to find a great match for your budget.
My child's confidence in English has taken a knock. Can a tutor help with that as well as the academics?
This is one of the most important things a tutor does. A great tutor builds a supportive, encouraging environment where it's safe to make mistakes and ask questions. By celebrating small wins and explaining things in a way that finally clicks, they help rebuild that self-belief, which is just as vital as any grade.
How flexible is the scheduling for online lessons? Our weeks are very busy.
That's one of the main benefits of online tutoring. You're not tied to a local tuition centre's opening hours. Our tutors offer sessions during evenings, weekends, and school holidays, so you can find a time that fits perfectly around your family's commitments without any stressful travel.
How will I know if my child is making real progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback, and you can message them at any time to discuss your child's progress. The real proof, however, comes from your child—when they start volunteering answers in class, tackling homework without arguments, and talking about English with a new sense of confidence.
What technology do we need for an online tutoring session?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.
How do you match my child with the right tutor?
Our platform allows you to filter tutors by subject, level, and price. You can read their profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors beforehand to discuss your child's specific needs before booking a session.
My other child needs help with Maths, not English. Do you offer other subjects?
We do! We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects, from core academics like Maths, Science, and History to languages, music, and even coding. You can find expert support for all your children's learning needs in one place.
