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!

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.
Are your tutors familiar with the competitive 11+ and grammar school entrance exams in the South-East?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have extensive experience helping students prepare for the specific entrance exams used by grammar schools across the South-East. They can provide targeted support for the verbal reasoning and English comprehension sections, building both skills and confidence for the big day.
Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?
Yes, and for many families in the South-East, it's even better. Online lessons offer the same dedicated, one-to-one focus but with added flexibility. Plus, your child isn't limited to tutors nearby; they can connect with the perfect subject specialist from anywhere in the UK, all from the comfort of home.
My child is studying authors with links to the South-East, like Dickens or Austen. Can we find a tutor who specialises in them?
That's one of the great advantages of our UK-wide network. You can browse tutor profiles to find someone with a passion for, or specialism in, specific authors. Whether it's Jane Austen's social commentary or Charles Dickens's depiction of Kent, you can find an expert to bring these texts to life for your child.
What happens if we don't click with the first English Language tutor we try?
We know that the right personal connection is vital for learning. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If for any reason you don't feel the first tutor is the right fit, 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 English Language tutors are qualified and safe?
Your child's safety and quality of education are our top priorities. We have a strict vetting process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is background-checked, and we verify their ID and qualifications to ensure you're connecting with trusted professionals.
Can a tutor help my child with their university application, perhaps for a top university in the region?
Yes, many of our A-Level English Language tutors have experience guiding students through the university application process, including crafting personal statements. They can help your child articulate their passion for the subject in a way that stands out to admissions tutors at competitive universities.
My child is more interested in Creative Writing than analysing texts. Do you offer that?
We certainly do! Tutoring isn't just for academic subjects. You can find fantastic tutors who specialise in nurturing creativity, whether it's poetry, short story writing, or even scriptwriting. It's a great way to build their confidence and passion for language beyond the curriculum.
How flexible are lesson times? Our schedule is already packed.
We understand that life in the South-East is busy. Our tutors manage their own schedules, so you can find someone who offers sessions at times that suit your family, whether that's after school, on weekends, or during the day for home-schooled children. You can filter tutors by their availability when you search.
How will I know if my child is actually making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you informed of your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time through our platform. The biggest indicator, however, is often the change you'll see in your child – in their growing confidence, their willingness to tackle homework, and their engagement in class.
How much does online English Language tutoring cost for a student in the South-East?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. This allows you to find an excellent, qualified tutor whose fees fit within your family's budget.
What technology do we need for an online lesson?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our custom-built online classroom has all the tools needed, including a video chat function and an interactive whiteboard, so no special software is required.
Do your tutors cover all levels, from Primary to A-Level?
Yes, we have a wide range of English Language tutors who specialise in different stages of education. Whether your child needs help with phonics in Primary school, preparing for GCSEs, or tackling complex A-Level texts, you can find a specialist to match their specific needs.
