Can an English Language tutor help my child with their applications to London universities like UCL or LSE?

Absolutely, our expert English Language tutors can help your child develop the sophisticated analytical and essay-writing skills they need to stand out on competitive university applications. They can provide targeted support to strengthen their personal statement, refine their understanding of complex texts, and prepare for interviews.

My child needs a strong GCSE English Language grade for a competitive London sixth form. Can a tutor really help them achieve a Grade 7 or higher?

Our English Language tutors specialise in helping students master the curriculum, refine their essay writing, and boost their analytical skills. Many of our students improve by up to 2 grades at GCSE, giving your child the best chance at securing their desired sixth form place.

What if my child doesn't get along with their first English Language tutor?

We want you and your child to feel completely comfortable, and 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'll cover your first session with a new tutor.

How do I choose the best online English Language tutor for my child?

Using our platform, you can browse tutor profiles to read reviews from other parents and watch their intro videos. Look for tutors with experience in GCSE English Language, specific exam board knowledge, and a teaching style that you think will suit your child.

How much does online English Language tutoring usually cost?

Tutor prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications, but you'll find a wide range to suit different budgets. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, with no hidden fees when you choose Tutorful.

My child lacks confidence in English. How can a tutor help with that?

Building confidence is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A dedicated English Language tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions, make mistakes, and celebrate small victories to help them feel more capable.

What's it like for my child to have an online English Language lesson?

Our bespoke online classroom is designed to be interactive and engaging. Your child will connect with their tutor via video call, using a virtual whiteboard for notes, sharing documents, and working through practice questions together. It's just like an in-person lesson, but with the added convenience and flexibility of learning from home.

How do you ensure your English Language tutors are qualified and safe?

Your child's safety and learning quality are our priorities. All our tutors are background-checked, and we verify their qualifications and experience to ensure they are experts in their field and excellent at explaining complex English Language concepts.

Will I be able to see my child's progress in English Language?

Absolutely, your child's tutor will regularly communicate with you about their progress, key learning areas, and next steps. You'll often see improvements in their schoolwork and confidence within just a few sessions.

What should my child expect from their first online English Language lesson?

The first lesson is usually a chance for your child and their tutor to get to know each other. The tutor will assess your child's current understanding, discuss their goals (like achieving a Grade 7 in GCSE English), and start building a personalised learning plan.
