Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends Harlington Upper School. Can a tutor help with their specific English curriculum?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in the national curriculum and can tailor their lessons to align with the specific texts, exam boards, and teaching methods used at your child's school. Just mention this to your chosen tutor so they can prepare the most effective support.
Can a tutor help my child with their personal statement for applying to the University of Bedfordshire?
Yes, many of our English tutors have experience helping students with university applications. They can help your child structure their personal statement, refine their writing, and articulate their ambitions clearly, which is a fantastic way to make their application stand out.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking a lesson. The best fit is often someone your child connects with.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. With our 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 much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. As their tutor helps them grasp difficult concepts, their self-belief grows, which has a positive impact on their class participation and exam performance.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an identity and background check, before they can start teaching. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
How often should my child have an English lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week is ideal for steady progress. However, it's completely flexible. You might want to arrange more frequent sessions in the run-up to GCSE exams or less frequent lessons for general confidence-building. You can discuss the best approach with your tutor.
How will I know if my child is 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 to ask questions or discuss their development. Seeing your child's grades and confidence improve is, of course, the best indicator!
What happens in a typical first lesson?
The first session is usually about getting to know your child. The tutor will chat with them about what they enjoy in English, where they feel they're struggling, and what their goals are. This helps the tutor plan lessons that are perfectly tailored to them.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have thousands of tutors for core academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. Your child can learn everything from coding and Python to playing the guitar or speaking Spanish.
