Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive sixth form in Surrey. Can a tutor help with their English Language GCSE grade?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in GCSE preparation and have a deep understanding of the mark schemes for all major exam boards. They can provide targeted support on everything from essay structure to textual analysis, helping your child build the skills and confidence to secure the grade they need for their next step.

Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?

We find it's even more effective for many families. Online tutoring offers huge benefits: your child can learn from the comfort of home in Surrey, you save time and money on travel, and you get access to a far wider choice of specialist tutors from across the UK, not just whoever happens to live nearby. With interactive tools like whiteboards, it's just as engaging.

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

It's so important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If it's not the right fit for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.

Are your tutors familiar with the curriculum taught in Surrey schools?

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

How do you vet your English Language tutors?

We're very selective because we know how much trust you're placing in us. We accept just 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is background-checked, has their qualifications verified, and goes through an interview process to ensure they have the expertise and passion to help your child thrive.

How much do online English Language lessons cost for a student in Surrey?

Our tutors set their own rates, which typically range from £25 to £50 per hour depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can easily filter by price when you search, so you can find a brilliant, affordable tutor who fits your family's budget.

What technology will my child need for their online sessions?

It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our custom-built online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to download.

How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?

You can get started very quickly. Our platform makes it easy to search for tutors, read reviews from other parents, and message them directly. Many parents find the perfect tutor and have their first lesson booked within 24 hours.

My child enjoys English, but can we also find tutors for other subjects like maths or science?

Of course! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core academics like maths, chemistry, and physics to languages, humanities, and even skills like coding or musical instruments. You can find all the support your child needs in one place.

How do we track our child's progress in English Language?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's development, highlighting areas of improvement and discussing the plan for upcoming sessions. You can also communicate with your tutor at any time through our messaging system to stay updated on their progress.

Can tutoring help with my child's confidence, not just their grades?

This is one of the most important things we do. When a child starts to understand a topic they once found difficult, their confidence soars. That 'aha!' moment in a one-to-one session can completely change their attitude towards a subject and their belief in their own abilities.

Do you offer tutoring for specific exam boards, like AQA or Edexcel?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are examiners or have extensive experience with specific exam boards. You can see which boards a tutor specialises in on their profile, ensuring your child gets support that is perfectly tailored to the exams they'll actually be sitting.
